The invention relates to a double-side printable label suitable for machine readable labelling of food containers and a method for manufacturing such label, wherein the label is arranged to comprise a base paper made of chemical pulp that separates the face and reverse sides, the face side comprising a layer of temperature sensitive coating which free of bisphenol A and suitable for direct thermal printing, the reverse side comprising a layer of pressure sensitive adhesive, which is suitable for flexographic printing with ultraviolet curable inks, and wherein the machine readability of the label is improved by means of the pressure sensitive adhesive layer thickness having effect on the static sensitivity of the temperature sensitive coating of the label.

The present application is directed to systems and methods for an interactive label and closure for a container. Information may be printed on an interior portion of the closure and a base label. A portion of the base label may be visible through a transparent window in a top label having. Rotation of the top label may cause the transparent window to display label information of varying relevance to the closure information.

A label including a first strip including a first end and a second end opposite the first end. The first strip includes an opaque material. The first strip further includes a first area proximate the first end. The first area includes a first length along a longitudinal axis common to the first strip. The label also includes a second strip including a third end and a fourth end opposite the third end, wherein the second strip includes a transparent material. The second strip is laminated over the first strip such that the third end is disposed outside the first area. The fourth end extends beyond the second end a distance at least equal to the first length.

An object of the present invention is to provide a print product which has a printed region where printing with ultraviolet laser is applied and which is excellent in viewability, a method for producing a print product by irradiation with ultraviolet laser, and a printing medium for laser printing, for use in the print product and the method for producing a print product. The print product of the present invention has a printed region comprising discolored titanium oxide in at least one portion of a sheet medium selected from the group consisting of paper or a film having a printable region comprising titanium oxide; titanium oxide is filled in the sheet medium; a titanium oxide content in the printable region in the sheet medium is 1.0% by mass or more, pulp constituting the paper has a length-weighted average fiber length and an average fiber width in specified ranges, and the paper has a basis weight of 20 g/m.sup.2 or more, when the sheet medium is the paper; a titanium oxide content in the printable region in the sheet medium is 0.3% by mass or more, the film has a thickness of 15 μm or more, and a resin constituting the film comprises a specified resin, when the sheet medium is the film; and a ratio between a Raman intensity assigned to titanium oxide in the printed region and a Raman intensity assigned to titanium oxide in a non-printed region is 0.70 or less.

A merchandise attachment incorporating an RFID transponder may be described herein. The merchandise attachment may include a pliable, elongated panel member adapted for wrapping around the neck of a bottle or similar container. The panel member may be formed from a unitary blank having score lines that divide the blank into a plurality of panel sections. The panel member, when folded along the score lines with its end sections in overlapping relationship, may form a packaging sleeve in the shape of a tapered rectangular prism. The exterior surface of the panel member may be provided with informational material regarding the merchandise, such as branding, promotional offers, and the like. The RFID transponder, affixed to an interior surface of the panel member, may be adapted for wirelessly communicating information in radio-frequency signals.

A container or lid may have a body of molded cellulose, the body of molded cellulose defining one or more walls. The wall has an outer surface and an inner surface. A depression is in the outer surface of the wall or walls. One or more labels, is or are embedded in the depression in the outer surface of the wall. A method for labelling a container or lid having a cellulose body may also be provided.

A labeling system comprising at least one linerless label configured to receive printing thereon; a substrate for receiving the label and to which the label becomes permanently bound after the label has been attached to the substrate; at least two materials deposited on the substrate-contacting side of the linerless label prior to attaching the linerless label to the substrate, wherein the first material is either a repositionable adhesive, a remoistenable adhesive, or a non-adhesive material, and wherein the first material is deposited in a layer having a predetermined thickness, wherein the second material is either a remoistenable adhesive, a repositionable adhesive, or a pressure sensitive adhesive, and wherein the second material is deposited in a layer having a predetermined thickness, and wherein the predetermined thickness of the layer of the first material is either less than the predetermined thickness of the layer of the second material or greater than the predetermined thickness of the layer of the second material.

A label including a first strip including a first end and a second end opposite the first end. The first strip includes an opaque material. The first strip further includes a first area proximate the first end. The first area includes a first length along a longitudinal axis common to the first strip. The label also includes a second strip including a third end and a fourth end opposite the third end, wherein the second strip includes a transparent material. The second strip is laminated over the first strip such that the third end is disposed outside the first area. The fourth end extends beyond the second end a distance at least equal to the first length.

A shrink label for application to a bottle and a cap is provided to maintain the position of the cap relative to the bottle. The shrink label includes an interior surface defining an opening therethrough, a first adhesive strip extending circumferentially about the interior surface of the shrink label, and a second adhesive strip spaced a distance above the first adhesive strip and extending circumferentially about the interior surface of the shrink label. The first adhesive strip is aligned with a portion of the bottle and the second adhesive strip is aligned with a side portion of the cap such that an intersection point between the bottle and the cap is positioned between the first adhesive strip and the second adhesive strip. A perforation line can be included on the shrink label above the second adhesive strip for removal of the shrink label.
