Introduced in February 2006, the 60-g (2-oz) bags of leafy greens feature patented, precut tape bands.

Supplied by Amcor Flexibles, the "TapeTop" anti-mist (for enhanced product visibility) pillow-type and stand-up-type bags are made of 35-micron oriented polypropylene, flexo-printed in seven colors at Amcor Flaxibles' Ledbury facility. The peelable, laminated tape closures can be adhesively affixed anywhere on the bag and then lifted and transferred for multiple-use bag reclosing after the package is opened.
