A laser printable shelf talker label sheet includes one or more removable shelf talker labels. The shelf talker label sheet includes a printable face layer laminated to a support layer, and one or more die cut removable shelf talker labels. The one or more shelf talker labels include at least the printable face layer having a first information portion and a second information portion, the support layer being adhesively attached to the face layer portion corresponding to the second information portion, the support layer portion being detachably attached to the face layer portion corresponding to the first information portion, and the printable face layer including optically transparent, fiber based material. A roll including one or more printable, die-cuttable shelf talker labels is also described.

A dissolvable tag includes a substrate and ink printed on the substrate that provides information. Both the ink and the substrate are water-soluble.

A multilayer ceramic capacitor is disclosed including a first external terminal disposed along a first end of the capacitor, a second external terminal disposed along a second end of the capacitor opposite the first end, an active electrode region containing alternating dielectric layers and active electrode layers, and a shield electrode region including at least two shield electrodes that are spaced apart by a shield layer gap in the longitudinal direction. The distance from the active electrode region to the shield electrode region may range from about 4% to about 20% of a thickness of the capacitor between a top surface and a bottom surface opposing the top surface. The shield layer gap may range from about 3% to about 60% of an external terminal gap between the first external terminal and second external terminal in the longitudinal direction on at least one of the top or bottom surfaces.

The disclosure relates to a mechanically recyclable label (1) comprising a face (2) and an adhesive (4). The face (2) comprises ethylene containing polymer and the adhesive (4) comprises pressure sensitive adhesive. The pressure sensitive adhesive comprises at least 15 wt. % of a base polymer, at least 25 wt. % of a tackifier and at least 10 wt. % of a plasticizer. The base polymer, the tackifier and the plasticizer are colourless and odourless. The base polymer is a styrene block copolymer. The mechanically recyclable label (1) is mechanically recyclable with packaging material comprising ethylene containing polymer. The disclosure further relates to a label laminate (8), a method for manufacturing a label laminate (8), a labelled item (101), as well as to use of a label (1) and of a label laminate (8). The disclosure also relates to use of a waste matrix of the label laminate for producing granulates of recycled plastic.

A wrap-around label configured to be affixed to an article made of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and collected as recycled PET. The wrap-around label may further include a washable ink that is configured to be removed prior to collection of the wrap-around label as recycled PET. The wrap-around label may also include an adhesive that is configured to dissolve or disperse in a caustic bath. In some embodiments, the wrap-around label may function as a pressure-sensitive label (PSL). A method for preparing a wrap-around label that is configured to be affixed to an article made of PET and collected as recycled PET.

In accordance with the present application, there is provided a release liner and method of preparing a liner for a label assembly. The release liner includes paper having a first side that does not have a machine finish or gloss finish or a coating; and a silicone treatment applied to the first side of the paper. The method of preparing a liner for a label assembly includes applying a coat of silicone to a paper at a side of the paper that does not have a machine finish or gloss finish and is otherwise uncoated; and curing the silicone. The release liner includes paper having a silicone coat weight of 0.5 lb/ream or less.

Comprising a long and flexible body (1), which defines two ends (2,3), having fixing means of the female type (4) and the male type (5), on both ends, characterized in that the long and flexible body (1) is lengthwise twisted on itself and is made of such a material as cellulose (7) or a by-product thereof, and/or the fixing means (4,5) are made of a biodegradable plastic material.

A label and related method of manufacture that includes a fabric made of yarn, in either cut individual singles or continuous ribbon format in any length. The yarn includes a fiber that has been recycled, that is recyclable, that is organic, that is biodegradable, and/or that can be derived from a material that is known to be environmentally friendly. The yarn, in one embodiment, may include a fiber defined as “high filament count” material, above the current industry standard of 24 filaments, being in the range of 72 to 96 to 144 filaments or higher per individual yarn, in any denier range of 30 denier to 150 denier thickness, in natural raw white, optical dyed white, or dyed colors. These yarns can be independent of each other.
