Abstract
A reusable flexible plastic bag is provided with a handle which serves to carry the bag and to reseal it. The bag is manufactured from two webs: a web from which the bag panels are formed and a web from which a loop handle is formed. The top end of the bag is not provided with a gusset. The loop handle is secured to the bag panels and is provided with a frangible region which can be broken to form two separate handle portions. The handle portions are releasably joined by mating slide closure structure. The slide closure joint can be peeled away by pulling the handle portions apart thereby providing access to the folded top end of the bag. The top end of the bag may be provided with perforations which may be broken to gain access to the bag contents. The bag may be resealed by means of the handle slide closure.
