Abstract: An expanded content label is disclosed which opens from a strategically located release-reseal system located at other than an edge of the label.

Abstract: A tube container with an integral accessory panel includes a tube container formed from a selected tube material. The tube container includes a product dispensing end, an intermediate sealing portion, and a filling end opposite the product dispensing end. The sealing portion is adapted to be sealed subsequent to filling the tube container with a selected product. An accessory panel, integrally formed from the selected tube material, is provided between the intermediate sealing portion and the filling end of the tube container.

Abstract: Packaging components could comprise a ply material having a front surface, a back surface, and an aperture through at least a portion of the ply material. A film material could be provided over a selected one of the front surface and the back surface of the ply material, covering the aperture. At least one substantially transparent portion and at least one substantially translucent portion could be provided with the film material covering the aperture.

Abstract: A roll-fed label web for a resealable label includes a label ply and a material that permits non-destructive manipulation of the label ply. An individual resealable label is produced when the web is cut by a label application machine. The label further includes an active portion.

Abstract: A roll-fed label web for a label with an active portion includes a base ply, at least one top ply, a plurality of separate, repeating cut zones, and a plurality of separate, repeating bond areas between the base ply and the at least one top ply. The separate, repeating bond areas are set back from the cut zones, and alternatively define a hinge and a release-reseal system. An individual label with an active portion is produced from the roll-fed label web when the web is cut at the cut zones by a label application machine. The individual label thus produced has adhesive-free opposing ends.

Abstract: An extended text wrap label includes a base ply and at least one top ply. The base ply has a first lengthwise dimension, a first widthwise dimension, a top surface that is capable of bearing graphic images, and a bottom surface that is capable of bearing graphic images and capable of being adhesively coupled to an object to be labeled. The at least one top ply has a second lengthwise dimension, a second widthwise dimension, a front surface that is capable of bearing graphic images, and a back surface that is also capable of bearing graphic images. The base ply and the at least one top ply are adhesively coupled, in a first portion of the label, to each other such that the top surface of the base ply and the back surface of the at least one top ply are in contiguous juxtaposition with each other along the first lengthwise dimension and the second lengthwise dimension, respectively, and along the first widthwise dimension and the second widthwise dimension, respectively.

Abstract: A single-pass, in-line process for creating multi-part articles by combining primary substrates in a first continuous web with discrete elements from a second continuous web which includes pre-cutting the second web to define, but not separate, discrete element portions and a waste portion, with the web remaining intact, joining the first and second webs in aligned relation in a manner which causes selected portions of the discrete element portions to adhere to selected portions of the primary substrates in the first web in a predetermined aligned registration to form multi-part articles and removing the waste portion of the second web from the combined web.

Abstract: An extended text label is provided for a tube container, wherein the tube container includes a product dispensing end and a filling end opposite the dispensing end. The filling end is adapted to be sealed by a crimp method, subsequent to filling the tube container with a selected product. The extended text label includes a crimp edge. The crimp edge is capable of being securely joined to the filling end of the tube container by way of the crimp method.

Abstract: A label having an integral extension tube includes a top ply and a base ply, each having perimeter edges. The perimeter edges of each ply are substantially coupled together in such a manner that a chamber is formed within the label, for integrally providing an extension tube there within.

Abstract: A roll-to-roll method of creating extended text labels includes introducing first and second web materials to a continuous, in-line, single pass, roll-to-roll press in a machine direction. In the machine direction of the press, selected graphics are printed on the first and second web materials. The first web material is selectively cut to create a foldable portion therein, with the foldable portion being in a substantially transversely folded relationship relative to the machine direction. The foldable portion of the first web material is then folded, and the first web material including the foldable portion and the second web material are joined to form a married web. The married web is then selectively cut such that at least one extended text label is created therewithin.

Abstract: A tube container with an integral panel for carrying a label includes a tube container having a product dispensing end, an intermediate sealing portion, and a filling end opposite the product dispensing end. The sealing portion is capable of being sealed subsequent to filling the tube container with a selected product. A label panel is provided in proximity to the sealing portion, with the label panel being integrally formed from material forming the tube container between the sealing portion and the filling end. An expanded content label may then be secured to the label panel.

Abstract: An in-line, single pass, multi- or single-web process for producing resealable multi-ply labels is disclosed which includes automation of an inclusion of intermediate label plies having dimensions different from final individual label dimensions.

Abstract: An extended text wrap label includes a base ply and at least one top ply. The base ply has a first lengthwise dimension, a first widthwise dimension, a top surface that is capable of bearing graphic images, and a bottom surface that is capable of bearing graphic images and capable of being adhesively coupled to an object to be labeled. The at least one top ply has a second lengthwise dimension, a second widthwise dimension, a front surface that is capable of bearing graphic images, and a back surface that is also capable of bearing graphic images. The base ply and the at least one top ply are adhesively coupled, in a first portion of the label, to each other such that the top surface of the base ply and the back surface of the at least one top ply are in contiguous juxtaposition with each other along the first lengthwise dimension and the second lengthwise dimension, respectively, and along the first widthwise dimension and the second widthwise dimension, respectively.

Abstract: An adhesive image transfer label includes a top ply having a front surface and a back surface. The front and back surfaces of the top ply are each capable of bearing printed graphics. A release coating is applied over a selected portion of the back surface of the top ply, and a breakaway coating is applied over the release coating. The breakaway coating, like the front and back surfaces of the top ply, is capable of bearing printed graphics. An adhesive coating is applied in flood coat fashion over the label, over the back surface of the top ply and over the breakaway coating. The label provides low cost and extended text identification and decoration for a product container, as well as a coupon-type label.

Abstract: A process for in-line lenticular film manufacturing having a selected web orientation includes providing an optically clear material web to an in-line converting and/or printing press. The optically clear material web is advanced in the in-line converting and/or printing press in a machine direction of the press. The press includes a lenticule forming means for forming lenticules in the optically clear material web. The lenticules are formed in a selected orientation relative to the machine direction of the press.
