Abstract: Labels for displaying information and particularly well suited for automated application to containers having curved outer surfaces, and methods for forming the labels. The labels each include a multipanel leaflet, a laminate cover and adhesive for securing the label to the container. In certain embodiments, a leaflet adhesive patch is disposed on a lower surface of the leaflet and a laminate adhesive underlies a portion of the laminate cover extending beyond the leaflet. An adhesive-free gap is defined between the leaflet and laminate adhesives. In a further embodiment, first and second leaflet adhesive patches are disposed on lower surfaces of the leaflet. An adhesive-free gap is defined between the first and second leaflet adhesive patches. In each embodiment, the respective adhesive-free gap facilitates proper application of the label to the curved container surface.
Abstract: A package for carrying fluid or powder samples and which is well adapted for application to product packaging or cards using automated equipment, and methods for forming the same. The package may be produced using a support web, a web of double coated tape, a web of transfer tape, or a release liner and a self-adhesive laminate. Unique nip rollers are disclosed for over-laminating the pouches and for guiding the web with pouches thereon for packaging.

Abstract: A literature assembly providing for verification of a plurality of leaflets of first and second types by inspecting only one leaflet of each type. The literature assembly includes a first leaflet secured to an assembly of leaflets, the assembly of leaflets including a plurality of integral and detachable leaflets. The first leaflet includes a first identifier and the assembly of leaflets includes a second identifier. Preferably, the first and second identifiers are electronically readable identifiers corresponding to information imprinted on each of the first and second leaflets, respectively. Each of the leaflets of the assembly of leaflets may be verified by inspecting a single panel of the assembly of leaflets.
Abstract: The present invention is directed to a label for displaying information regarding a package. The label includes a bottom panel, a top panel overlying and connected to said bottom panel along a first fold line, and at least one interior panel connected to one of the bottom panel and the top panel along a second fold line. An adhesive layer is disposed on the lower surface of the bottom panel. Each of the bottom panel and the top panel have a marginal portion extending between the first fold line and an adjacent edge of the interior panel. An access tear line is formed in the marginal portion of the top panel. Preferably a second access tear line is formed in the marginal portion of the top panel and spaced apart from the first access tear line, defining a tear strip therebetween. A marginal extended flap may extend from one of the top and bottom panels. The label may further include a laminate cover overlying the top panel.
Abstract: A label product including a web of double coated tape and a plurality of outserts affixed thereto. The web of double coated tape includes a release liner having an upper surface and a carrier having an upper surface and a lower surface. The lower surface of the carrier is coated with a first adhesive layer and the upper surface of the carrier is coated with a second adhesive layer. The carrier is releasably secured to the upper surface of the release liner by the first adhesive layer and the outserts are positioned in spaced relation to one another along the web.
