Abstract (en)

An attachment for a flexible package is disclosed to enable the user to fasten a reclosable package. A bifurcated adhesive member (15) is secured to the body portion of the package (11) at a distance from the opening thereof. The member has a jaw-like construction with a hingeline about which one of the jaws may pivot. When the jaws are opened by the user, the reclosed, folded end of the package may be inserted therebetwen, and the jaws subsequently closed to retain the package in reclosed condition. It is particularly useful for flexible packages of cornflakes, potato chips, cheese etc, where portions of the contents are removed over a period of time, gradually decreasing the volume of the contents and forming a sequentially smaller package which should be resealed to preserve the freshness of the contents.
