A method of peeling off the protective film includes: providing a panel lower sheet, where a protective film is provided on one surface of the plane lower sheet and the protective film has a bending line extending in a first direction parallel to opposing sides thereof; gripping a portion of the protective film; moving the gripped portion of the protective film in a second direction which is a thickness direction thereof; and moving the panel lower sheet in a third direction perpendicular to the bending line.

A method for producing a sealing tape with interior barrier layers, each of which extends between opposite end surfaces of the sealing tape, the method includes the steps of providing a first foam web; applying a first barrier layer to a first surface of the first foam web to form a laminated foam web; introducing a plurality of first cuts into the top surface and a plurality of second cuts into a bottom surface of the laminated foam web in the transverse direction, the cuts being offset from each other in the longitudinal direction, to form strips arranged behind each other in a row; folding over the strips to produce a foam-barrier layer web, such that subsections of the top surface lie opposite each other and subsections of the bottom surface lie opposite each other; and forming a sealing tape roll from the foam-barrier layer web.
