A visual-information security system that includes an information security label positioned to conceal visual information on a substrate. The information security label may include a spiral-shaped cut (or other complex shape) within the body of the label and a pull-tab, such that when a user pulls on the tab, the label peels off of the substrate in a spiral pattern, revealing the information concealed beneath the label. The complex-shaped cut makes reapplication of the label difficult and evident, thus providing security to consumers. The label may include multiple layers of material, for example, a peel-off layer and an adhesive layer.

A business form comprises a first portion and a second portion adhesively secured to the first portion via a control bond adhesive. The control bond adhesive is a mixture comprising: between about 1 kg and 2 kg of a flexible adhesive; between about 1 kg and 2 kg of water; between about 12 g and 16 g gypsum, and between about 13 g and 23 g fumed silica.

There is disclosed a label for a microscope slide having a width and a thickness. The label includes a body having a top side and an underside with adhesive. The body defines at least a first panel, a second panel and a third panel. At least one of the panels covers the width of a section of the slide. The label includes at least two folding strip sections. A first of the strip sections is between the first panel and the second panel. A second of the strip sections is between the second panel and the third panel. The strip sections cover the thickness of the section of the slide. A pre-application fold lines demarcates the strip sections from the adjacent panels. The first panel receives information thereon or covers information on the slide, and the third panel is transparent. A method for applying a label is also disclosed.

A receipt and label roll comprises a core and a web having a longitudinally-extending axis and wound on the core along the axis. The web includes (i) a substrate having a front side and a back side opposite the front side, (ii) a thermally-sensitive coating disposed on the front side of the substrate, (iii) adhesive disposed on a portion of the back side of the substrate along the web axis, and (iv) a release coating disposed on the front side of the substrate along the web axis to prevent the adhesive from sticking to the front side of the substrate when the web is wound on the core. The web further includes (v) a longitudinal weakened structure extending along a direction parallel to the web axis and dividing the web into a first web portion on which the adhesive is disposed and a second web portion which is substantially devoid of adhesive.

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 package for shipping a product ordered via the Internet. The package comprising a container body, an inner label, a closure, an outer label removably attached to and covering all or part of the inner label, and a shipping label adhered to the outer label.

Label constructions comprise a first section and a second section that are laminate constructions of a card stock top surface that may include printed indicia, an adhesive layer disposed underneath the card stock, and a removable liner adhered to the adhesive layer and common to the first and second sections. The first section includes an RFID device. The first section may be configured once removed from the liner to fold on itself to form an RFID tag, or to form an RFID adhesive label. The second section once separately removed from the liner forms an adhesive label. The construction first and second sections are positioned adjacent one another and are formed during the same manufacturing process for purposes of manufacturing efficiency. The first and second sections may be treated to facilitate separate removal from the liner to provide labeling flexibility.

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 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 frame web assembly for securing a label to an apparel item is provided. The assembly includes a substrate, a label, and a frame web. The frame web includes a carrier web having first and second faces, the first face having an adhesive, and at least one frame element with the first side having an adhesive and the second side in contact with the first face of the carrier web. The present invention also includes a method for branding the apparel item which includes applying a frame element over the woven label and then adhering the woven label and frame element to an apparel item.
