Abstract

A self-closing resealable packaging material (S) and a process for creating a package utilizing the material.

A cohesive material (13) is applied to surface portions of the packaging material so that when wrapped around an article cohesive portions stick together and seal the package. To make the package resealable a liner (17) is placed upon at least a part of the cohesive material containing surface so that a non-adhering margin is formed and the unused cohesive can be utilized reseal the package after its initial opening. Indicia (19) can be provided on the packaging material to assist in positioning the article to be enclosed so taht when cut along the pre-dotted line (18), the edge of the laminate with the cohesive material (13) is cut away from the package and the non-adhered margin is left unimpaired and intact for resealing.
