Abstract:
A label sheet assembly is provided as shown and described herein. The label sheet assembly may include a facestock layer and a liner sheet. The facestock includes a first cut line that defines an inner and an outer or elongated label. A second cut line defines a perimeter of the outer elongated label portion and a matrix portion. The window label may be configured to receive a first indicia thereon while the outer label portion may be configured to receive a second indicia thereon. The first and second indicia may be coordinated to reflect the same or different indicia or design configurations. The window label may be configured to be attached to a lid while the outer label portion may be configured to be attached to an outer surface of a transparent container or jar.
Abstract:
Provided is an anti-static and high-heat resistant label sheet comprising a film, metallic interlayer, and adhesive. The metallic interlayer comprises pigments that are smoother, have a rounded edge, and result in a more homogenous thickness with minimal to no surface defects, which allow for increased reflectivity and vibrancy of the pigments and label sheet. The pigments are also aligned as to form channels within the metallic interlayer for dispersing and preventing buildup of static electricity. The label sheet may further comprise a printable top coat, primer coating, a colored coating, and a liner layer. The printed label sheets may be used for asset tracking and security labeling, such as barcoding products and inventory. The metallic color and reflectivity of the label sheets, and the die-cut labels thereon, may enable readability of the barcodes with a handheld scanner up to 24 inches distance
Abstract:
A barrier coating is used in combination with a UV-cured adhesive on paperstock to prolong the tack and overall performance of the adhesive. Some aspects of the coating incorporate a chelating material to arrest or completely prevent the migration of unwanted ions, possibly including calcium ions, from moving between the paperstock and the adhesive in a manner that negatively impacts the adhesive. The resulting stock is particularly well-suited to labels and other similar uses.
Abstract:
The inventive assembly incorporates a lanyard assembly that may, in some embodiments, be attachable to badge connector to present a single, unitary connector with a stylized appearance. The ends of the lanyard ribbons are engaged in a manner that creates free space between the edges of the ribbon immediately upon exiting the connector assembly so as to impart resistance to unwanted twisting of the object held by the lanyard assembly and/or the ribbon forming part of it. The object or badge connector associated with the assembly comprises a clip, j-hook, or key ring assembly for easy attachment of a card or card holder.
Abstract:
Various sheeted articles are described. The articles include one or more banding products such as wristbands or ankle bands. The banding products are securely retained within the sheet articles prior to use by one or more regions of adhesive. Upon removal of the banding products from the sheet, one end of the band (an attachment end) comprises an adhesive to allow attachment to the other end, and the second end including the strap portion is generally free of any adhesive or liner material and the under surface of the second end is substantially formed by the material of the face layer. The articles can also include a collection of removable adhesive backed labels.
Abstract:
A stackable container as shown and described herein. The stackable container may include an outer container having a bottom panel, a pair of opposite side walls and an end wall that extend from the bottom panel respectively. Said bottom panel may have at least one slot. A plurality of locking tabs may extend downward through said slots and a top panel may extend from the end wall wherein the top panel may be adapted to be pivoted between an open position and a closed position a front panel may extend from the bottom panel may be adapted pivot between an open position and a closed position. An inner container may be configured to be slidingly received within the outer container when the front panel is in the open position.
Abstract:
A surface treatment for a protective plastic film and/or laminate is disclosed. In certain versions, the surface treatment includes coating a major surface of the plastic film or laminate with a curable coating formulation wherein one or more of the coating ingredients are diffused or migrated at least partially into the plastic film or plastic laminate. The migration of coating ingredients creates a gradual transition layer from the plastic film to the coating layer and leads to unique properties. In other versions, diffusion does not occur and a relatively sharp interface is defined between the coating formulation and the plastic film. Optionally, the surface treated plastic film is laminated to a release liner coated with a pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) to form the aforementioned laminate.
Abstract:
A label hanger assembly (10) has a label sheet (12) with at least one hang strip cut out (14) therein, and in one embodiment, two hang tabs (14) are employed. The hang strips or tabs (14) are both integral with the label sheet (12) and engageable with a hook (28) of an intravenous (I.V.) stand. An adhesive coating (22) is applied to one side of the label sheet (12) in a pattern so that the hang strips or tabs (14) do not have adhesive (22) on any side thereof. The label sheet (12) adheres to the periphery of an I.V. bottle (26) near the bottom end thereof, and the engageable portion of the hang strips or tabs (14) engages with the hook (28) of the I.V. stand. Break-away ties (20) hold the hang strips or tabs (14) in place within the label sheet (12) prior to a user pulling hang strips or tabs (14) out of the label sheet (12). A backing sheet (24) with a release coating (22) is provided for either one label sheet (12) or a plurality of label sheets (12) to be releasably mounted thereon prior to being adhered to an I.V. bottle (26) either manually by a user or mechanically in a high-production basis.
