Mylar Bags With Zipper for Repeat-Use Products
Resealable pouches add convenience after the first opening, but zipper placement, top seal, tear notch and fill opening must all work together.
The zipper changes the whole top of the pouch.
A zipper occupies space inside the package and affects the opening, top seal and artwork safe area. The pouch should be sized around the fill process and the way the consumer will actually use it.
Standard resealable zipper
Common direction for food, snacks, coffee and powders.
Tear notch
Creates a defined first-opening point above the zipper.
Top seal area
Leave adequate room for final heat sealing after filling.
Easy fill opening
Coordinate zipper depth and package width with hand or machine filling.
Custom graphics
Plan artwork around the zipper, seal and tear zones.
Barrier structure
Use the zipper within a film structure appropriate for the product.
Convenience is part of package performance.
A pouch can have excellent barrier and print, but if it is awkward to fill or difficult to reclose, the user experience suffers. Treat the closure as part of the full package system.
