Flexible packaging pouches are gradually replacing rigid packages on store shelves and retail markets. Flexible packaging pouches can be used to store food and non-food products. It has led to many inventions in the field of packaging pouches. Zipper is one of the most demandable features provided in the packaging pouches. Zipper feature came into existence due to concept of reusability; one of the most demanded characteristic by customers. Flexible zipper pouches are beneficial to the customers because it provides safety, convenience, consistent high quality and beneficial for trade purposes because of space saving, shelf appearance, aesthetics and reduced packages. Zippered plastic pouches that can be securely closed and reopened are particularly popular due to their ability to maintain freshness of food stored in the pouches and to minimize or eliminate leakage out of pouch.
