  • Patent number: 6620275
    Abstract: Laminated resealable booklets on labels having an unadhered pull tab are made on a label press or the like by separating release material from label material in a web of label stock, neutralizing the adhesive on the label material in predetermined locations, and adhering the active adhesive on the label material to the release material. A succession of initial bases are die cut, and the resulting waste matrix is removed. Booklets are then laminated over a portion of the initial bases, and of course the laminate also covers the spaces between adjacent initial bases. The laminate and initial bases are then die cut to form the label products. Each label product includes a booklet, a base label portion of the initial base which the booklet covers, and a portion of the adjacent initial base which is not adhered to the release liner. The unadhered portion of the adjacent initial base forms the pull tab.
