ABSTRACT:
A container (110) including a closure device (121) is disclosed. The closure device (121) includes a pair of interlocking fastening strips (130, 132) and a slider (134) for occluding and deoccluding the fastening strips (130, 132). The fastening strips (130, 132) are interlocked when the slider (134) is at a first end (136). The slider (134) includes a separator (192) that is configured to urge the fastening strips (130, 132) to wrap around the separator (192) to provide a seal when the slider (134) is at the first end (136) of the fastening strips (130, 132). The slider (134) can include a nose portion (252) for latching the slider (134) at the first end (136) of the fastening strips (130, 132). The slider (134) can include a valve (198).
