A container for consumer goods comprises an outer housing having a box and a lid (103) hinged to the box along a hinge line and pivotable about the hinge line between an open position and a closed position. Further, the container comprises an inner package (104) of consumer goods within the outer housing comprising an access opening (105) for removing consumer goods when the lid is in the open position. The container further comprises a reclosable flap (106) occluding the access opening and at least one activatable adhesive element (107) provided on a surface of the reclosable flap, on a surface of the lid or on both. The adhesive element can be selectively activated, and the reclosable flap can be affixed to the lid by the activated adhesive element, such that upon opening the lid the reclosable flap is lifted off the inner package to at least partly reveal the access opening.

A hinge-lid container comprises a resealable package of consumer goods, the package having an opening through which consumer goods can be removed; and a self-adhesive reclosable sticker covering the opening of the package and extending beyond the periphery of the opening of the package. The sticker comprises a first and a second layer of labelling web material. The first layer is affixed to the package by a first adhesive provided on the inner surface of the first layer extending about at least a sealing portion of the package at the periphery of the opening. The first layer comprises a cut-out aligned with the opening of the package. The second layer is at least partially releasably affixed to the first layer by a second adhesive provided on a first area of the inner surface of the second layer extending about at least the lower periphery of the cut-out of the first layer. The second adhesive is a removable adhesive and a peel strength for peeling the first layer from the package is greater than a peel strength for peeling the second layer from the first layer. The second layer of the self-adhesive reclosable sticker is permanently affixed to the inner surface of the lid.

A reusable closure system is disclosed for flexible packaging applications. The system generally includes base and lid portions. The base portion can be bonded to underlying package material and includes first and second fields of touch fasteners separated by a multi-layer buffer zone. The buffer zone can be at least in part co-located with a frangible region of underlying package material. In some embodiments, the buffer zone is substantially free of active bonding agent, such that there is little or no active bonding agent overlapping the frangible region. One of the touch fastener fields of the base can be deployed at least partially within the area defined by the frangible region. The other touch fastener field is deployed around the buffer zone. The lid portion can be bonded to the package material and/or base portion, and includes a hinge and another touch fastener field to mate with the base fields.

The present invention is directed to a packaging article configured as packaging rollstock comprising a multilayer laminate having an integrally formed peelable, removable coupon. The coupon is formed from a first layer having at least two score-lines and a pattern-applied second, third, fourth and fifth layer. The coupon includes an interior printable water-based acrylic pressure sensitive adhesive layer which advantageously provides a surface for printing graphics and resealability to packages made there-from.

Improved packages and methods for constructing packages are provided that are designed such that the user can peel back a lidding member of the package to reveal an independently peelable portion covering one of the compartments. The independently peelable portion is a layer of the lidding member that maintains the respective compartment in an unopened (sealed) condition until the user independently peels that layer off to access the items in that compartment. The lidding member can be used to re-seal all of the compartments before and/or after the independently peelable portion is removed. The independently peelable portion may include a visual indication of a sealed condition of the compartment that serves as a tamper evidence feature. In multiple-compartment packages, peeling back the lidding member allows the user to access some of the compartments of the package, while at least one of the compartments remains sealed via the independently peelable portion.

The present invention is directed to a peel-open, reclosable package formed from a single thermoplastic laminate comprising a first film laminated to a second film. The package includes a peelable, resealable heat-seal seam adhering an interior surface of a first sealing section of the interior package surface to an interior surface of a second sealing section of the interior package surface. The package also includes an asymmetric cross-sectional seal interface formed at the peelable, resealable heat-seal seam by disjoining a segment of the first film from the first sealing section prior to heat sealing the first and second sealing sections together.

A flexible pouch has an internal zipper adding support to the pouch and allowing the contents of the pouch to be portioned. Flexible pouches having a product disposed therein are also disclosed, along with kits containing same. In addition, methods of producing the flexible pouches and packaged products are also disclosed.

A hinge-lid container comprises a resealable package of consumer goods, the package having an opening through which consumer goods can be removed; and a self-adhesive reclosable sticker covering the opening of the package and extending beyond the periphery of the opening of the package. The sticker comprises a first and a second layer of labelling web material. The first layer is affixed to the package by a first adhesive provided on the inner surface of the first layer extending about at least a sealing portion of the package at the periphery of the opening. The first layer comprises a cut-out aligned with the opening of the package. The second layer is at least partially releasably affixed to the first layer by a second adhesive provided on a first area of the inner surface of the second layer extending about at least the lower periphery of the cut-out of the first layer. The second adhesive is a removable adhesive and a peel strength for peeling the first layer from the package is greater than a peel strength for peeling the second layer from the first layer. The second layer of the self-adhesive reclosable sticker is permanently affixed to the inner surface of the lid.

A package has a package body and a handle for carrying the package. The package body has at least one face and a reclosable opening on the at least one face. The handle is positioned over the reclosable opening and has a first strap, a second strap, and a connection portion. The first strap includes a first end and a second end. The first end of the first strap is attached to a face of the package body. The second strap includes a first end and a second end. The first end of the second strap is attached to a face of the package body and is disposed opposite to the first end of the first strap. The connection portion is located on the second end of the second strap and is detachably engaged to the second end of the first strap.
