Abstract: A package reclosure label has a paper base label which is secured by a pressure-sensitive adhesive to the package. A tear resistant synthetic top sheet has a first end permanently adhered to the base sheet and extends beyond the far end of the base sheet to a second end which is secured by a resealable adhesive directly to the package. A generally unadhered central portion of the top sheet is also releasably adhered to the base sheet. The package is reclosed by folding over its open flap and adhering the first end of the top sheet to the flap. The labels are provided for application to packages side-by-side in multitude on a continuous release liner, with the pressure sensitive adhesive of the base sheet and the resealable adhesive of the second end of the top sheet mounting the labels to the liner in production of the labels and prior to application of the labels to packages.

Abstract: A package reclosure label has a base label which is secured by a pressure-sensitive adhesive to the package. A Z-folded top sheet has a first panel permanently adhered to the upper surface of the base sheet, a second panel folded back over the first panel with an edge extending past the first panel that is releasably adhered to the base sheet, and a third panel folded back over the second panel and extending beyond the second panel to a tab which is resealably adhered to the package. The label can be opened or extended by lifting the tab off the package and breaking the releasable bond between the second panel and the base sheet. Multiple labels can be stored and shipped on a reel of release liner by adhering them to the release liner by the pressure-sensitive adhesive on the back of the base sheet and by the resealable adhesive on the back of the tab.
