Abstract: A system and method are disclosed for constructing a rotatable label and attaching the rotatable label to a container. The rotatable label may have a transparent portion and is temporarily secured to a container or an inner label that is permanently secured to the container via a temporary adhesive disposed on a leading edge of the rotatable label's back surface. Permanent adhesive is disposed on the trailing edge of the rotatable label's back surface. The rotatable label is then wrapped around the container so that the trailing edge of the rotatable label's back surface comes in contact with the rotatable label's front surface. The rotatable label is then rotated with respect to the inner label or container, thereby breaking the temporary bond formed by the temporary adhesive between the rotatable label and inner label or container. Alternatively, temporary adhesive may be disposed on the trailing edge of the rotatable label's back surface to allow the rotatable label to be easily removed from the container.

Abstract: A multi-layer flexible insulation (I) comprises a series of layers which include a pair of closed-cell insulation sheets (10,12) made of multicellular plastic film (i.e. closed cell air bubbles or bubble-pack) and laminated on both sides of a thin white polyethylene film (14), a pair of aluminum foil layers or films (16,18) adhesively mounted on the outer surfaces of the bubble-pack insulation sheets (10,12), and a pair of thin clear polyester layers (20,22) provided on the outer surfaces of the aluminum layers. The aluminum layers (16,18) are vapor deposited on the polyester layers (20,22) and are assembled to the hot bubble-pack insulation sheets (10,12) while the latter are cooled. The bubble-pack sheets (10,12) are then adhered to the central polyethylene film (14) with a hot melt glue. If the polyester (20,22) is highly smooth, the aluminum (16,18) can be deposited thereon in a uniform state thereby providing a high reflectivity, low emissivity, laminate.
