What Are Zipper Style Bags?
Zipper style bags from Rutan feature a re-sealable interlocking zipper closure at the top, allowing repeated access while maintaining a reliable seal. These bags are ideal in packaging scenarios where small parts, consumables, or items requiring frequent access need to stay organized and protected.
Unlike basic poly bags, zipper style bags offer resealable convenience without compromising film integrity. They ensure clean closure after opening and can be reused multiple times, making them well-suited for industries like food service, medical devices, hardware, or retail sample kits.

Applications
Rutan zipper bags are widely used in sectors where access and protection matter. Typical uses include packaging small hardware parts, medical device components, textiles, sporting goods, and holiday decorations that require secure yet repeatable access.
In food service or consumer goods, these bags help seal out dust, moisture, or leakage while making product usability easier. They’re often chosen when clean access to product is needed, and when film clarity and seal consistency impact user experience.
Common applications also extend to electronics, brochures or sample kits—any scenario where easy-open and zipper re-seal functionality keeps items organized and fresh.
