Abstract

An adhesive closure strip and dispenser are presented. The device includes a dispenser housing including a roller rotatably disposed therein. A sheet comprising the adhesive closure strips is rolled along the roller and is configured to extend out of an opening of the housing. The sheet can include various designs or indicia on an upper side thereof. The lower side of the sheet includes a reusable adhesive material thereon. The sheet is divided into segments via a plurality of perforations wherein each individual segment includes a non-adhesive pull tab portion for easy removal from the housing. The pull tab also allows for a portion of the closure strip to remain free to pull on after the closure strip has been used to seal a bag or container. In use, a section of sheet can be torn away and applied to a flexible bag to releasably seal the opening thereof.
