FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE           

POUR & LOK™ RECLOSABLE PACKAGING NOW AVAILABLE IN PRE-ZIPPERED ROLL STOCK

Green Bay, Wisconsin, June 2008 – Hudson-Sharp has introduced Pour & Lok™ reclosable packaging in both pre-zippered roll stock and pre-made bags and pouches. 

Pour & Lok™ is a side gusseted, reclosable package with a press-to-close zipper located in the side gusset.  Once the top of the package is opened, the gusset can be pulled out to form a pour spout. The zipper can be extended beyond the gusset into the body of the bag to make a larger opening which will allow scooping or easy pouring of the product.  The specially designed foldable zipper can then close the bag while the spout remains in the extended position.  

Pour & Lok™ reclosable packaging can be pre-applied to roll stock used in form-fill-seal machinery.  The patented Pour & Lok™ pre-zippered roll stock can also be used in conjunction with pouch making machinery for pre-made pouches with reclosability.

Pour & Lok™ is a proprietary package design from the innovative Inno-Lok® reclosable packaging family.  Inno-Lok® pre-zippered roll stock is used in form-fill-seal machinery to produce bag top and front panel reclosable packaging.  For further information on Pour & Lok™ and Inno-Lok®, or to locate a licensed Inno-Lok® film converter, contact The Hudson-Sharp Machine Co.
