ABSTRACT:
A recloseable package is disclosed having a front wall and a rear wall. A thermoplastic zipper male base member is disposed at a top end of the first wall and a thermoplastic zipper female base member is disposed at a top end of the second wall. The base members each have a profile which extends transversely across the walls. The profiles are each disposed between a product side web and a consumer side web. A heat resistant barrier is provided on facing surfaces of the male and female product side webs, extending from product side longitudinal edges of the base members toward the associated profiles. The male and female base members are heat sealed to the first and second walls, respectively, opposite to the heat resistant barriers which are resistant to heat sealing to each other. The facing surfaces of the consumer side webs may likewise have heat resistant barrier layers, in which case the package is sealed above the consumer side webs. Alternatively, the facing surfaces of the consumer side webs may be provided with peel seal layers which fuse together when the consumer side webs are heat sealed to the bag walls, thereby forming a top seal for the package. A zipper for use in the disclosed package is also disclosed.
