ABSTRACT:
A method for making a reclosable bag providing a particle-tolerant closure arrangement preventing the interference with the closure arrangement by small particles and granular-type products. The female profile includes first and second legs deflectable between a mated position when engaged with a male profile and an unmated position when not engaged with the male profile. Each of the first and second legs include an attachment end and an engagement end, and the first and second legs have opposing sections that are separated by a distance in the unmated position based upon a grain size of the granular product to be stored in the bag. The male profile includes a stem having a head and a base at opposite ends thereof, and is arranged to interlock with the first and second legs. The method includes attaching the attachment end of the first and second legs to the film, and attaching the base of the stem to the film. A zipper for a reclosable bag, and a reclosable bag are also disclosed.
