Abstract
An initially closed openable and reclosable closure for flexible bags, the closure having a tearable line of weakening defining an openable elongated slit in a flexible film of one face of the flexible bag and pressure sensitive adhesive provided on the exterior of the one face of the flexible bag on opposite sides of the openable elongated slit whereby the tearable line of weakening may be ruptured thereby opening the elongated slit and providing access to the interior of the bag. The opened elongated slit may be reclosed by folding the bag to bring the adhesive into confronting relation with itself on opposite sides of the elongated slit to form an adhesive-to-adhesive closure thereby closing the elongated slit. Reclosable flexible bags of this type reclosed in a tamper evident manner are especially useful in medical and health care fields.
