Easylock by Aplix® An intuitive resealable closure for flexible packaging

Easylock by Aplix® is a recyclable and sensory hook-to-hook resealable closure for flexible packaging.

This patented hook-to-hook closure is made from food-grade, heat-sealable polyethylene material, designed to be sealed on film. Self-mating micro hooks engage on multiple levels, making it easy for anyone to open and reclose their flexible packaging. Unlike other zip closures and press-to-close systems, precise alignment is not required for closing. Its sensory appeal make it both fun and functional for the entire family!

Easylock by Aplix® addresses the consumer, retailer, and consumer product companies’ demands for more environmentally friendly packaging. It is is a 100% polyethylene recyclable closure (accredited by Trex®), and is also ideal for reusable bags: it can be opened and closed easily at least 50 times and is also washable.
