ABSTRACT:
A reclosable carton having an integrated hang tab adapted for use on standard store pegboard or racking displays wherein the integrity of the hangtab is such that it will withstand the loading of weights comparable to or exceeding those withstood by pressure sensitive hangtabs. The hangtab is perforated along the bottom so that it can be torn off by the consumer after purchase. With the hangtab in use, the carton with which it is integrated provides continuous closure to the product inside via a top inside major flap which prevents dust and debris from entering the carton. A zipstrip is included and it provides a positive closure for the package which is tamper evident and secure. A reclose tab is integrated into the zipstrip. When the zipstrip is removed, the reclose tab is created. It can be tucked into a corresponding opening in the carton front wall panel for carton reclosure. Additionally, a secure locking ellipse is incorporated into the carton. During carton reclosing, the ellipse is inserted first into a corresponding opening in the carton front wall panel, followed by insertion of the reclose tab into its corresponding opening.
