Reversible fastener for a resealable bag-type container

A resealable, reversible bag-type container, comprising:

• first and second opposing wall panels, each of the first and second opposing wall panels having an interior face and an exterior face;
• and
• at least one reversible fastener comprising:
• a first closure mechanism including first and second complementary interlockable components disposed on the interior faces of the respective first and second opposing wall panels proximate a top periphery of the first and second opposing wall panels;
• a second closure mechanism including first and second complementary interlockable components disposed on the exterior faces of the respective first and second opposing wall panels proximate the top periphery of the first and second opposing wall panels;
• a third closure mechanism including first and second complementary interlockable components disposed on the interior faces of the respective first and second opposing wall panels proximate a side periphery of the first and second opposing wall panels, and
• a fourth closure mechanism including first and second complementary interlockable components disposed on the exterior faces of the respective first and second opposing wall panels proximate the side periphery of the first and second opposing wall panels.

A method of forming a reversible fastener for a resealable bag-type container having first and second opposing wall panels, each of the first and second opposing wall panels having an interior face and an exterior face, the method comprising the steps of:

• forming a first closure mechanism including first and second complementary interlockable components on the interior faces of the respective first and second opposing wall panels proximate a top periphery of the first and second opposing wall panels;
• forming a second closure mechanism including first and second complementary interlockable components on the exterior faces of the respective first and second opposing wall panels proximate the top periphery of the first and second opposing wall panels;
• and
• forming a third closure mechanism including first and second complementary interlockable components on the interior faces of the respective first and second opposing wall panels proximate a side periphery of the first and second opposing wall panels;
• and
• forming a fourth closure mechanism including first and second complementary interlockable components on the exterior faces of the respective first and second opposing wall panels proximate the side periphery of the first and second opposing wall panels.
