Description

A registered trademark for a family of resealable plastic bags. Ziploc® bags are made from polyethylene. The bag openings have interlocking ridges that provide a liquid proof seal. Polyethylene is not an effective vapor barrier film. Additionally the Ziploc® bags have a thin layer of release agent, such as an amide wax, on the surface to keep the plastic surfaces from sticking.

Some brands are:

- Ziploc® Double Guard™ Freezer Bags 
- Ziploc® EZ-Fill™ Bags 
- Ziploc® Brand Bags with Easy Zipper

Synonyms and Related Terms
