The present invention relates to a smart and secure label stock with security features. The present invention relates to a label stock produced from a substrate utilizing adhesive and liner materials and having a plurality of security features on the rear side of the substrate made using specialized inks and various authentication features for different applications.

A security device (1) comprising an optically transparent layer (3) including a repeating first array of separate optical focussing elements (3) (e.g. having translational symmetry) wherein a pitch distance between repeated elements in the first array is a first pitch value (A). The device also includes a repeating second array of separate image elements (6) (e.g. having translational symmetry) collectively defining an image viewable through the first part. The device is structured such that a pitch distance between repeated or successive elements in the second array is a second pitch value (B) wherein the ratio (A/B) of the first pitch value and the second pitch value has a value, A/B=n±Δ, that differs from a positive integer value, n, according to an absolute difference, Δ, not exceeding 0.01 and not less than 0.001.

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.

The invention relates to a peel detection label that is a laminate including a support, a pattern layer formed in a part of the surface of the support, and a pressure-sensitive adhesive laminate having at least a low modulus layer (X), a high modulus layer (Y) and a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer (Z) in that order, in which the low modulus layer (X) has an n-layered structure (where n is an integer of 1 to 10) having a surface in contact with the support and the pattern layer and a surface in contact with the high modulus layer (Y), and the low modulus layer (X) satisfies a specific thickness-average shear storage elastic modulus.

An object of the present invention is to provide a thin volume hologram sheet to be embedded sufficiently resistant to a mechanical stress such as a stress including a tensile stress, a shear stress and a compression stress at the time of processing even under a heating condition, a forgery prevention paper and a card using the same. The object is achieved by providing a volume hologram sheet to be embedded comprising a volume hologram layer, and a substrate disposed only on one side surface of the volume hologram layer using an adhesion means, wherein a peeling strength of the volume hologram layer and the substrate is 25 gf/25 mm or more.

A physical card (in some cases without any on-board source of power or computing capabilities) is configured to maintain access information for digital bearer assets. A unique identifier visible on the card may be transmitted to a server-system to utilize functionalities corresponding to the card (e.g., based on information associated with the unique identifier) on a decentralized computing platform, like a blockchain-based decentralized computing platform. Private access information, like a secret, private key that corresponds to a public key (e.g., a public-private key-pair) or a representation of the private key (like a ciphertext thereof) and corresponding encryption key, may be physically concealed with tamper-evident components such that a user can readily determine whether the private access information was divulged. In some examples, a user is required to activate one or more tamper-evident features, thereby altering a visible state of the card, to utilize functionalities corresponding to the card.

Systems and methods include tamper-evident indicators applied to a band comprising a strap that forms a closed loop. Tamper-evident sections of the indicators provide increased security against accidental and intentional removal of the indicators. Indicators are provided with adhesives and bare areas devoid of adhesive allowing easy and secure application of indicators to bands while they are being worn and with greater ease. Indicators can be further provided with liners protecting the adhesives allowing the indicators to be easily applied by gloved hands, reducing contamination risks. Contamination and wear risks can be further reduced by supplying indicators with antimicrobial surfaces and overprint varnishing.

A carton closure label is provided. The carton closure includes a first layer having a first adhesion value and a perforated portion extending at least substantially across a dimension of the first layer. The carton closure also includes a second layer removably coupled with the first layer, the second layer having a second adhesion value that is less than the first adhesion value.

A sealing label (1) with a carrier ply (2), an adhesive layer (4), and an intermediate ply (3) arranged between the carrier ply (2) and the adhesive layer (4) with predetermined breaking points (30) for the internal separation of the intermediate ply (3), wherein the carrier ply (2) has at least a paper layer (21). A use of the sealing label (1), the production method thereof and a use of a carrier ply (2) including or consisting of a paper layer (21) for producing the sealing label (1).

In the field of protection of value documents and value commercial goods, the present disclosure relates to the field of security threads or stripes to be incorporated into or onto security documents, and security documents having security threads or stripes. The security threads or stripes include i) first optically variable layer imparting a first different color impression at different viewing angles, ii) second optically variable layer imparting a second different color impression at different viewing angles, iii) first color constant layer having a color matching color impression of the first or second optically variable layer at a first viewing angle, iv) second color constant layer having a color matching color impression of the first or second optically variable layer at a second viewing angle, and v) a substrate. The layers are jointly visible from one side of the security thread or stripe.
