Abstract

A zipper closure for a reclosable bag has a male profile and a female profile, the male profile being snappingly engagable within the female profile to close the zipper closure. One of the male and female profiles includes a collapsible element which forms a hermetic seal between the male and female profiles when the male profile is engaged within the female profile.
