Abstract:
1. A package with a resealable pour spout comprising: a package material comprising a heat-sealable inner layer, an outer layer, and a pressure-sensitive adhesive disposed between the inner layer and the outer layer; a gusset formed of the package material, the gusset having a center fold that divides the gusset into a first folded portion and a second folded portion; a transverse heat-seal region extending across the gusset whereby the first folded portion is sealed to itself by mating surfaces of the heat-sealable inner layer and the second folded portion is sealed to itself by mating surfaces of the heat-sealable inner layer; and a patterned die cut formed in the heat-sealable inner layer, at least a portion of the patterned die cut being adjacent to the transverse heat-seal region of the gusset so as to allow a portion of the inner layer to delaminate and expose a portion of the pressure-sensitive adhesive when the center fold is unfolded and the resealable pour spout is opened.
