- the waste web remnant 56 comprises the excess laminar material 42 and in addition the cut-away longitudinal edges of the multilaminar folded label 22 and the extraneous adhesive from the regions 24,26.
- the resultant self-adhesive label is shown in Figure 4 from which it will be seen that the folded label portion 58 which has been cut from the original multilaminar folded label 22 is adhered by respective areas 60,62 of the original first and second regions 24,26 of adhesive to the backing 38 of release material.
- a laminar material portion 64 covers the folded label portion 58 and has first and second opposed edge regions 66,68 thereof which extend past respective edges 70,72 of the label portion 58.
- the first and second edge regions 66,68 are respectively adhered to the backing 38 of release material by the first and second areas 60,62 of the adhesive regions 24,26.
- the laminar material portion 64 is retained in a closed configuration by the adhesion of the opposed edge regions 66,68 to the backing 38 of release material.
- the laminar material portion 64 covers the entire self-adhesive label 20 and protects the label 20 from damage or soiling.
- SUBSTITUT is adhered to the area 62 of resealable adhesive.
- the label of Figure 4 may be modified by shortening the front cover panel thereby removing the overlapping flap whereby the folded label portion is itself only adhered to the adhesive area 60 and it is only the laminar material portion 64 which is adhered to the area 62 of resealable adhesive.
- the self-adhesive label 20 is stripped off from the backing 38 of release material e.g. by an automatic labelling machine and the label 20 is adhered to the product by the areas 60,62 of adhesive.
- the edge region 68 of the laminar material portion 64 and the overlapping flap 74 are pulled away from the product at the interface with the areas 62 of resealable adhesive.
- the overlapping flap 74 and the edge portion 68 of the laminar material portion 64 can be readhered to the product by the area 62 of resealable adhesive.
- FIG. 5 A third embodiment of then self-adhesive label in accordance with the present invention is illustrated in Figure 5.
- a folded label portion 80 is in the form of a booklet having a front cover panel 82 which is longer than the remaining panels so as to define an overlapping flap 84.
- a back cover panel 86 of the booklet is adhered by a strip 88 of a permanent adhesive which extends adjacent the spine 90 of the booklet to a backing 92 of release material.
- the free edge 94 of the back cover panel 86 is releasably adhered to the backing 92 of release material by a strip 96 of resealable adhesive which is parallel to the strip 88 of permanent adhesive.
- the overlapping flap 84 of the front cover panel 82 is adhered to the backing 92 of release material by a second strip 98 of resealable adhesive which is parallel to and spaced from the strip 96.
- the label 100 is removed from the backing 92 of release material and adhered to a product to be labelled by the three strips 88, 96 and 98 of adhesive.
- a user pulls the overlapping flap away from the product and this strips away the overlapping flap 84 from the strip 98 of resealable adhesive to permit the label to be opened-and the inner pages of the booklet to be read.
- the rear surface of the back cover panel 86 may be printed with information and in order to access this information the user can pull the edge 94 of the back cover panel 86 away from the strip 96 of resealable adhesive.
- the edge 94 and the overlapping flap 84 may be readhered if desired to the respective strips 96, 98 of resealable adhesive.
- the label 100 may be manufactured by a method substantially the same as that employed to manufacture the label of the first embodiment illustrated in Figures l and 2.
- FIG. 6 A fourth embodiment of a label in accordance with the present invention is illustrated in Figure 6.
- a folded label portion 102 in the form of a booklet has a similar construction to that illustrated in Figure 5.
- This embodiment is modified in that the folded label portion 102 is not adhered directly to a backing of release material but rather the folded label portion 102 is adhered to a support piece 104, typically of paper, which is self-adhesive, being coated on its rear surface with a pressure-sensitive adhesive, and is itself carried on a backing 106 of release material.
- the booklet 102 has a back cover panel 108 which is adhered adjacent the spine 110 of the booklet to the support piece 104 by a strip 112 of permanent adhesive.
- a strip 114 of resealable adhesive adheres to the support piece 104 both the free edge 116 of the back cover panel 108 and the overlapping flap 118 of the front cover panel 120.
- the support piece 104 is stripped off from the backing 106 of release material and adhered by its self-adhesive surface to the product to be labelled.
- the label 122 can be opened and closed as desired in the manner described hereinabove with reference to the embodiment of Figure 5.
- the label of Figure 6 is manufactured in a manner similar to the method of manufacture of the second embodiment illustrated in Figures 3 and 4 except that a laminating procedure is not employed.
- Strips 112, 114 of adhesive are applied to a self-adhesive support web which is carried on the backing 106 of release material, the self-adhesive support web subsequently being die-cut to form the support pieces 104.
- a succession of folded label portions 102 are applied thereto and then the composite assembly passes to a die-cutting station at which the support web is cut to form the support pieces 104 and also the ultimate self-adhesive labels 122.
- the applied folded label portions may also be cut either along their longitudinal edges or along the transvers edge which is remote from the spine 110 (the longitudinal and transverse directions being equivalent to those illustrated in Figure 3) and the waste portions of the cut away parts of the applied folded label portions 102 are removed together with the waste web remnant of the support web. This can provide coincident edges of the applied folded label 102 and the support piece 104.
- the first, second and third embodiments may be modified by adhering the applied folded label to a self-adhesive support piece carried on a backing of release material rather than to the backing of release material directly. It will be readily apparent to the man skilled in the art how this may be achieved.
- a fifth embodiment of the present invention is illustrated in Figure 7.
- a succession of first regions 130 and second regions 132 of adhesive are applied to a web of a backing of release material 134.
- the adhesive of the first and second regions 130, 132 may be the same type of adhesive, typically permanent hot melt adhesive.
- the disposition of the regions of adhesive is substantially the same as that in the first embodiment illustrated in Figure 1.
- a multilaminar booklet 136 is applied over and adhered to the first and second regions of adhesive 130, 132 so as to completely to cover those regions.
- the booklet 136 includes a front cover 138 and rear cover 140 and at least one sheet 142 disposed therebetween.
- the first weakened tear line 144 comprising a line of perforations which extends between the front and rear covers 138, 140 whereby if the weakened tear line 144 is torn the front cover 138 and the at least one sheet 142 can be detached from the rear cover 140.
- a pair of second weakened tear lines 146 are constituted by perforation lines which extend across the front cover 138 so as to separate the front cover 138 into an end portion 148 which is adhered to the backing 134 of release material by the second region 132 of adhesive and a body portion 150 which is disposed above the at least one sheet 142 and the rear cover 140. Tearing along the second weakened tear lines 146 permits the folded booklet 136 to be opened when the folded booklet 136 is adhered to a product to be laballed so as to enable the at least one sheet 142 and the rear cover 140 to be accessed.
- the booklet 136 it is possible for the booklet 136 to comprise the entire self-adhesive label.
- the booklet 136 actually constitutes two separate labels.
- the two separate labels are formed by longitudinally slitting along a slitting line 152.
- the slitting line 152 extends coextensively through the booklet 136 so as to divide the booklet 136 into booklet portions 154, 156 and through the backing 134 of release material so as to divide the backing 134 into backing portions 158, 160.
- the waste at the longitudinal edges of the composite booklet/backing assembly, the waste consisting of cut-away portions of both the backing 134 and the applied booklet 136, is removed.
- a pair of webs is formed, each comprising a succession of booklet portions being carried on a backing of release material.
- the booklet portions 154, 156 may be removed from the respective web 158, 160 and adhered to a product to be labelled by the respective portions of the first and second regions 130, 132 of adhesive.
- the front cover portion is torn along the second weakened tear lines 146 so as to enable the label to be opened. Subsequently, the front cover portion and the at least one sheet portion may be torn away from the rear cover portion by tearing along the first tear line 144.
