Abstract: A linerless label media includes a substrate having a first side, a second side and a longitudinal axis. The first side of the substrate has a release coat. The second side of the substrate has at least one area of a first adhesive having a first thickness, and at least one different area of a second adhesive having a greater thickness than the first thickness of the area of the first adhesive. The greater thickness of the second adhesive reduces a contact between the first adhesive and the release coat when the linerless label media includes a linerless label roll configured for use in a printer. A linerless label roll is also described.

Abstract: A printable 2-PLY security tape includes a first tape PLY label stock. A first substrate has a printable outer surface as a first outer PLY surface. A first inner PLY surface includes at least one first release area disposed on an inside surface of the first substrate, and at least one first adhesive area is disposed on the inside surface of the first substrate. A second tape PLY security tape includes a second substrate outer surface as a second outer PLY surface. A second inner PLY surface includes at least one second release area disposed on an inner surface of the second substrate, and at least one second adhesive area disposed on the inner surface of the second substrate. The second adhesive area is in contact with the first release area and the first adhesive area in a contact with the second release area, to form a 2-PLY composite tape.

Abstract: A writing pad containing a stack of horizontally aligned sheets, each of which is cut to the same size and shape. Initially, the sheets are stacked so that the corner edges of the stack are perpendicularly aligned with the top and bottom sheets. Preferably, the sheets in the stack are assembled in sets wherein each set is provided with a specific border color or colors which differ from the color or colors used in the other sets. The sheets are then fanned or swirled uniformly as to form helical flutes extending between the top and bottom sheet of the stack. An adhesive is applied to one side face of the stack to hold the stack in a swirled configuration. The top and bottom surfaces of each sheet are provided with a printed border that frames the writing area. By varying the colors printed on the different sets, a wide variety of visual effects can be obtained.
