  • Patent number: 6461708
    Abstract: A multilayer resealable container and closure seal for a container comprising a base layer and a face layer adhered together by an adhesive means, wherein said base layer of the seal is adherable to a container to be sealed by folding said closure seal over the opening of a container with greater adhesion of the base layer to the container to be sealed than adhesion of the face label to the base label so the face layer can be removed from the base layer with the base layer remaining adhered to the container and said closure is resealable by folding said face layer over said base layer.

  • Patent number: 5925208
    Abstract: Polymeric sheets or rolls suitable for printing and forming at high rates of production of blown or injection in-mold labeled plastic containers are based on a polymeric transparent, translucent or contact clear substrate having a thickness in the range of 0.002 to 0.008 inches which is reverse printed and overcoated on the container-facing side with a heat activatable adhesive and coated or extruded on the opposite side with an antistatic and/or slip coating. Optionally, such sheet or roll can be printed and then cut into individual labels for affixing to the container as part of a in-molding process. Recyclable containers are provided at high speed without missing labels or doubled labels due to feeding problems. The labels are firmly adherent, and squeeze-release resistant and the indicia, because they are viewable through the labels themselves, are protected against spillage and abrasion.

  • Patent number: 5711839
    Abstract: Polymeric sheets or rolls suitable for in-line gravure printing and forming at high rates of production of in-mold labeled plastic containers comprise a polymeric transparent, translucent or contact clear substrate having a thickness in the range of 0.002 to 0.008 inches which is reverse gravure-printed and gravure overcoated on the container-facing side with a heat activatable adhesive and gravure coated on the opposite side with an antistatic coating. Such a sheet or roll can be printed and then cut into individual labels for affixing to the container as part of a unified in-molding process, without the need to manually stack and jog the sheets and labels into graphic registration. Recyclable containers are provided at high speed without missing labels or doubled labels due to feeding problems. The labels are firmly adherent, squeeze-release resistant labels and the indicia, because they are viewable through the labels themselves, are protected against spillage and abrasion.
