Packaging rolls and a method of packaging rolls of textile fabric are
provided in which a roll of textile fabric having first and second
transverse ends and a longitudinal length is inserted within a polymeric
bag disposed over the roll. The polymeric bag includes a reclosable
closure strip comprising at least one rib and one groove oppositely
disposed on an inner surface of the polymeric bag proximate to the bag
opening. The polymeric bag is designed to provide water and abrasion
resistance to rolls of textile goods of about 3-16 feet in length and
about 6-24 inches in diameter. The bag can also be reused for partially
used rolls.
