VirtualMall: HallmarkHallmark Introduces First-of-Its-Kind Adhesive Gift WrapInnovative new product meets consumer demand for easier gift wrapping with a professional lookHallmark announced its newest innovation ... Adhesive Gift Wrap. The first-of-its-kind product is coated on one side with a low-tack adhesive invented by Hallmark, which sticks firmly to packages, creating a beautifully wrapped gift without a lot of extra work. It is being sold exclusively at Hallmark Gold Crown(R) stores. Adhesive Gift Wrap is the result of requests from consumers who want the act of gift wrapping to be more convenient for their busy lifestyles. We've often heard from our consumers that they prefer giving and receiving hand-wrapped gifts. They perceive wrapped gifts to have a great value, especially for children. But we also hear them saying they're strapped for time and feel like grabbing a gift bag is their only option," said Susan Klopfenstein, product manager at Hallmark. "So we invented Adhesive Gift Wrap to help people easily hand-wrap a gift without sacrificing a professional look." Hallmark, credited with founding the modern-day gift wrap industry 91 years ago, has a provisional patent on the product's low-tack adhesion, which is sticky enough to create clean lines and crisp folds without leaving any residue on the gift. There is no backing to peel off, so Adhesive Gift Wrap sticks to itself when rolled up, making storage simple. "Essentially, if you can operate a sticky note, you can wrap like a pro with Adhesive Gift Wrap," said Klopfenstein.
