  • Patent number: 12312122
    Abstract: A process of producing printed variably imaged labels cut to individual label sheets in a pre-defined sequence of variable information synchronized with the planogram of a retail store for labeling, output from a factory assembly line for unique product labeling or labeling of shipments from a fulfillment or distribution warehouse that all have unique data and follow a planogram or planned sequence. The labels are cut into single sheets using a cutter/stacker and either use a crack and peel liner or a stripped matrix around the label to facilitate easy removal and application. The cutter/stacker processes converted label stock that is either preprinted and die cut and/or variably imaged.

  • Patent number: 10137677
    Abstract: A method of printing a single ply transparent or pigmented cellulose film having a top surface and a bottom surface in a high temperature printer: said method including: (a) coating the bottom surface of the single ply transparent or pigmented cellulose film with a layer pressure sensitive adhesive and coating said top surface of said cellulose adhesive with a functional top coating while controlling the moisture content of the cellulose film at between 4.5 and 6.5 wt % water, based on the weight of the cellulose layer; (b) laminating a lay flat liner onto the layer of pressure sensitive adhesive to form a laminated single ply transparent or pigmented cellulose film; and (c) passing the laminated single ply transparent or pigmented cellulose film through a laser printer to affix printed indicia to the laminated single ply transparent or pigmented cellulose film.

  • Patent number: 6991261
    Abstract: Labels having a permanent section and at least one removable coupon section are made from polymeric sheets or rolls suitable for printing and forming, at high rates of production, blown or injection in-mold labeled plastic containers are based on a polymeric white opaque, transparent, translucent or contact clear substrate monoaxially oriented and having a thickness in the range of 0.002 to 0.008 inches. The polymer film is reverse pattern-printed with an abhesive coextensive with the detachable portion then overcoated on the container-facing side with a continuous coating of heat activatable adhesive. 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.
