The transfer portion may include at least (i) a printable layer in confronting relationship with the carrier layer, and (2) an ink layer disposed between the printable layer and the carrier layer. The transfer portion may include at least (i) a printable layer in confronting relationship with the carrier layer, and (2) an ink layer disposed between the printable layer and the carrier layer.

A printable 2-PLY security tape includes a first tape PLY label stock. A first substrate has a printable outer surface as a first outer PLY surface. A first inner PLY surface includes at least one first release area disposed on an inside surface of the first substrate, and at least one first adhesive area is disposed on the inside surface of the first substrate. A second tape PLY security tape includes a second substrate outer surface as a second outer PLY surface. A second inner PLY surface includes at least one second release area disposed on an inner surface of the second substrate, and at least one second adhesive area disposed on the inner surface of the second substrate. The second adhesive area is in contact with the first release area and the first adhesive area in a contact with the second release area, to form a 2-PLY composite tape.

A label is constructed with multiple separate adhesives or a mixture of a non-moisture activated adhesive and a moisture-activated adhesive and applied in multiple patterns on a backside of the label. The label maintains adhesive bonding characteristic when the backside of the label is affixed to dry, cool, warm, and wet surfaces.

This invention relates to a method for manufacturing a continuous linerless label web. The continuous linerless label web comprises a positionally alternating adhesive coating on a face. The method comprises: supplying the face with a release coating arranged on a first side, providing positionally alternating continuous adhesive stripes on a second side wherein predetermined properties of the positionally alternating continuous adhesive stripes are selected so that number of stripes in each single customer roll is one or more, width of each stripe is smaller than width of single customer roll, and positional frequency is selected so that one oscillation cycle covers 0.1-10 peripherical lengths in a machine roll, and 1-100 peripherical lengths in a customer roll defined as peripheries of full rolls. This invention further relates to a linerless label web and a linerless customer roll.

An auxiliary prescription label for a prescription receptacle which is used in combination with a primary prescription label is provided. The prescription label includes at least a first panel and a second panel which are foldably connected together. First and second flaps extend from opposite sides of the first panel. A permanent adhesive is provided on a first face of the first flap, and a releasable adhesive on a first face of the second flap. The permanent adhesive and the releasable adhesive are configured to be secured to the prescription receptacle. A method of adhering the auxiliary label to the prescription receptacle is also provided.

An adhesive label is provided. The adhesive label includes an adhesive patch that covers at least 50% but less than 85% of a backside surface of the adhesive label and that is at least partially horizontally and vertically centered on the backside surface.

Techniques regarding a reclosure label are provided. For example, one or more embodiments described herein can comprise a reclosure label that includes a flap portion connected to a label base. Further, the flap portion can comprise a rigid material layer. Additionally, the reclosure label can comprise a flexible material layer that is integral with the flap portion and the label base and forms a hinge portion that enables the flap portion to pivot with respect to the label base. Moreover, the rigid material layer can be absent from the hinge portion.

An illustrative apparatus includes a first substrate and a second substrate, wherein the first substrate includes a first plurality of adhering regions and a first plurality of print faces defined between perforated folds and the second substrate includes a second plurality of adhering regions and a second plurality of print faces defined between cut folds, and wherein the perforated folds and the cut folds are collinear. The second substrate may releasably adhere to the first substrate via the second plurality of adhering regions and the first plurality of adhering regions, respectively. Each of the second plurality of adhering regions may be individually released from each of the first plurality of adhering regions and separated along the cut folds to yield a first set of labels and each of the first plurality of adhering regions may be individually separated along the perforated folds to yield a second set of labels.
