A label sticker includes a release layer strip, an attachment layer strip and a label layer strip. The attachment layer strip is made of an artificial dressing material and its lower surface is coated with or adhered to a first glue layer. The lower surface of the attachment layer strip is attached to the upper surface of the release layer strip through the first glue layer. The label layer strip is made of a waterproof material and its lower surface is coated with or adhered to a second glue layer. The lower surface of the label layer strip is attached to the upper surface of the attachment layer strip through the second glue layer. The label sticker, to be adhered to the human skin to serve identification purposes, can be manufactured by mass production but is unlikely to be wetted and smeared.

A polyolefin-based film comprising at least one layer permitting printing as a result of laser irradiation; wherein not less than 100 ppm but not greater than 3000 ppm of pigment permitting printing as a result of laser irradiation is present in all layers of the film; haze thereof is not less than 1% but not greater than 30%; and unevenness in thickness thereof in either a machine direction or a transverse direction is not less than 0.1% but not greater than 25%. An object is to provide a film capable of being printed in distinct fashion by a laser, that excels with respect to unevenness in thickness, and that is of high transparency, and at the same time provide packaging which employs such film and on which printing has been directly carried out.

The present application relates to a method for manufacturing an indicator for food that can visually check the quality change in food in a package state, an indicator for food manufactured therefrom, and a method for checking the storage status of food using the same. The manufacturing method of an indicator for food of the present application includes bonding a first film, on which an indicator layer including a pH-sensitive indicator is formed on one surface thereof, and a second film, on which an adhesive layer is formed on one surface thereof, so that the indicator layer of the first film and the adhesive layer of the second film can face each other.

Oriented, multilayer shrink films, either clear or opaque, comprise a core layer and at least one skin layer. The core layer has a thickness greater than the thickness of the at least one skin layer. The at least one skin layer comprises at least one cyclic-olefin copolymer as the predominant component thereof. The core layer comprises a blend of a polyolefin polymer and a polybutene-1 copolymer with ethylene, the butene-1 constituting over 75% by weight of the polybutene-1 copolymer. The film has a shrinkage of at least 20% in at least one of the machine and transverse directions of formation when said film is heated to a temperature of between 80 and 100° C. Optionally the films can include a propylene-based elastomer, a styrenic based block copolymer elastomer, reclaim including the components of the film, or combinations thereof.

A method produces labels having multiple sheets adhesively interconnected in a first surface area region of the basic label and lying loosely on top of each other in a second surface area region. After imprinting a carrier web, including imprinting an anti-adhesion layer in first surface area regions and a frame region, material webs are applied and imprinted to produce lowermost label sheets. An anti-adhesion layer is imprinted onto the last material web in third surface area regions lying between the first and/or second surface area regions and the frame region. After punching the material web between the third surface area regions and the first and/or second surface area regions, an outermost material web is applied and imprinted. By: punching a frame through all material webs, a waste matrix is severed, simultaneously forming an outermost sheet section in each third surface area region projecting laterally beyond the lowermost label sheets.

A pressure sensitive label and method for preparing same, the pressure sensitive label comprising: (a) a support portion, the support portion including at least a carrier layer; and (b) a transfer portion over the support portion for transfer of the transfer portion to an article upon application of pressure while the transfer portion is in contact with the article. The transfer portion may include at least (i) a printable layer in contacting relationship with the carrier layer, and (ii) an ink layer positioned such that the printable layer is between the carrier layer and the ink layer.

A polyester-based film comprising at least one layer permitting printing as a result of laser irradiation; wherein not less than 100 ppm but not greater than 3000 ppm of laser-printable metal is present in all layers of the film. The film is capable of being printed in distinct fashion by a laser, excels with respect to unevenness in thickness, and is of high transparency, while at the same time provide packaging which employs such film and on which printing has been directly carried out.

A self-adhesive multi-layer item comprising: 1) a dorsal support DO having a top face SI1 and a bottom face SI2, 2) at least one layer of silicone release coating RC applied to the top face SI1 of the dorsal support DO and which is prepared by irradiation of a curable silicone composition C not containing any solvent and comprising, as constituents: a) at least one functionalized organopolysiloxane A b) an effective amount of at least one type I photoinitiator P of the family of acylphosphine oxide derivatives of formula (III) 3) at least one adhesive PSA, preferably at least one pressure-sensitive adhesive PSA, applied on the layer of silicone release coating, 4) a frontal support FR applied on the adhesive PSA of the component 3), and 5) optionally at least one layer of silicone release coating RC applied on the bottom face SI2 of the dorsal support DO and which is prepared by application and irradiation of said curable silicone composition C, and on this same layer, there is at least one adhesive PSA, preferably at least one pressure-sensitive adhesive PSA.

A shrink sleeve label is provided. Broadly, the shrink sleeve label includes an unshrunken shrink film and a varnish applied to the shrink film. The varnish is applied to the shrink film in an application area to reduce shrinking of the shrink film in the area where the varnish is applied. Additionally, the shrink sleeve label includes a secondary label that is applied to a surface of the shrink film. Further, a method of manufacturing a shrink sleeve label is provided. Broadly, the method includes providing a shrink film and seaming the shrink film into a tubular shape. Additionally, the method includes providing a secondary label and applying the secondary label to the shrink film. The secondary label is applied to the shrink film before the shrink film is applied to an article.

The present invention relates to a multilayer film including at least one film surface which has an increased surface roughness achieved by protrusion creating particles. The at least one film surface may have a surface roughness characterized by a coefficient of roughness (CR) of ≥0.02 or a Parker Print Surf roughness of at least 2 μm.
