Multi-layer film and reclosable film package

A method of forming a package comprising:

• extruding a multilayer film with a first film layer and a second film layer with an embedded coextruded bonding layer therebetween;
• forming a first cut through the first film layer at least to the embedded coextruded bonding layer;
• adhering a base film, via an adhesive lamination layer, to the first film layer thereby creating a multi-ply multilayer film and forming a non-adhering zone between portions of the base film and the first film layer;
• forming an outer cut in the base film that extends through the base film and at least partially through the embedded coextruded bonding layer and a portion of the outer cut coincides with the non-adhering zone to form, in part, a pull tab;
• forming an inner cut extending from the second film layer at least to the embedded coextruded bonding layer;
• and
• wrapping the multi-ply multilayer film around contents and sealing the multi-ply multilayer film to form an individual package, wherein the package has a resealable opening.

A coextruded multi-layer film suitable for creating at least a part of a package, the coextruded multi-layer film comprising:

• a coextruded bonding layer;
• a coextruded inner or intermediate film that enables release of the bonding layer, the coextruded bonding layer being disposed adjacent the coextruded inner or intermediate film, the coextruded inner or intermediate film having a width and/or length greater than a width and/or length of the coextruded bonding layer;
• and
• an opening feature formed in the coextruded multi-layer film.
