  • Publication number: 20250148937
    Abstract: Linerless labels with adhesive patches arranged in optimal adhesive patch patterns are provided. The adhesive patch patterns mitigate adhesive buildup on components of a printer when a roll of linerless labels is fed through a printer by minimizing the adhesive coverage area on the backside of the linerless labels without altering the adhesive bonding characteristics of the individual linerless labels dispensed from the printer. The adhesive is a microsphere adhesive having a particle size between 10-250 or 20-350 microns. In an embodiment, the microsphere adhesive includes solids of at least 25% in the microsphere adhesive.
