Abstract
A reclosable plastic box liner having a reclosable fastener of a length relatively the same as that of the width of the box when the liner is filled with products such as cereals, crackers or chips. To achieve a liner having sufficient size to fill the box, yet, having a reclosable fastener of a correct length, the top section of the liner is cropped or chamfered at its ends generally above the product fill level of the liner. Preferably, the chamfered section is angled from the vertical at least from the product fill level to the reclosable fastener.
