Provided is an anti-static and high-heat resistant label sheet comprising a film, metallic interlayer, and adhesive. The metallic interlayer comprises pigments that are smoother, have a rounded edge, and result in a more homogenous thickness with minimal to no surface defects, which allow for increased reflectivity and vibrancy of the pigments and label sheet. The pigments are also aligned as to form channels within the metallic interlayer for dispersing and preventing buildup of static electricity. The label sheet may further comprise a printable top coat, primer coating, a colored coating, and a liner layer. The printed label sheets may be used for asset tracking and security labeling, such as barcoding products and inventory. The metallic color and reflectivity of the label sheets, and the die-cut labels thereon, may enable readability of the barcodes with a handheld scanner up to 24 inches distance.

A heat transfer sheet assembly and method is disclosed for improving the process of removing the carrier layer from a facestock layer. The heat transfer sheet assembly may include a heat transfer facestock layer and a carrier layer. The facestock layer may be attached to the carrier layer and include an indicia receptive surface along a side opposite the carrier layer. The carrier layer may include at least one peel line that extends from opposite edges of the assembly wherein the peel line assist to remove the carrier layer from the heat transfer facestock layer once indicia is printed on the facestock layer.

A repositionable medium includes a base, a paper, and a first repositionable adhesive. The base has a top surface, a bottom surface, a first end edge, and a second end edge. The paper is fixedly coupled to the top surface of the base proximate to the first end edge. The paper has an inner edge and an outer edge. The outer edge is closer to the first end edge than the inner edge is to the first end edge. The inner edge is spaced a first distance from the first end edge of the base. The first repositionable adhesive is fixed to the bottom surface of the base and is not present in a first low adhesion area at a line across a width of the base and spaced a second distance from the second end edge of the base. The second distance equals the length of the first distance.

Repositionable medium and stack thereof

Handle assembly

A label is provided that includes a body portion having an area, a front surface, and a back surface. The label also includes a tab portion having an area and a back surface, and the tab portion is integrally coupled to the body portion and extending from an end of the body portion. A line of weakness divides the tab portion and the body portion, and the line of weakness is formed such that the tab portion is selectively separable from the body portion along the line of weakness. A layer of adhesive is provided on the back surface of the body portion of the label, and a majority of the back surface of the tab portion is free of adhesive. The area of the tab portion is less than the area of the body portion.

Labels, related pads thereof, and related methods

Pad of labels

Label with pad of labels

An adhesive label is configured to be wrapped around an apparatus and to outline a predetermined image having first and second components. A first facestock has opposite first and second edges that come into proximity with one another when the label is wrapped around the apparatus. The first edge includes first contours that outline the first component of the predetermined image, and the second edge includes second contours that outline the second component. A multilayer sheet assembly comprises the adhesive label, wherein the first facestock inner surface includes a lined portion that is covered by a release liner, and an unlined portion that is not covered by the release liner. The sheet assembly further comprises a second facestock that covers at least some of the unlined portion of the first facestock inner surface, and is adhered thereto using an adhesive.

Printing stock for use in making a sign that includes a face sheet and a backing sheet. The sign is formed, for example, by overlapping a plurality of face sub-sheets of the printing stock, with the face sub-sheets arranged in a pattern to form a desired image of the sign. The face sheet includes a printing surface for receiving ink and an adhesive surface for receiving the backing sheet. The face sheet includes a face cut forming a margin and the face sub-sheet such that at least a portion of the margin is separable from the face sub-sheet. The backing sheet may include a backing cut forming a border and a backing sub-sheet such that at least a portion of the border is separable from the backing sub-sheet so that at least a portion of the adhesive surface of the face sheet is exposable.

A label sheet assembly is provided with bar code information thereon defining the layout of the labels on the backing sheet. A versatile label dispenser apparatus advances the label sheets and deflects them over a peeling bar in one direction to partially separate the labels from the backing sheet; with the advancing action being determined by the bar code information. The label sheet assemblies are then deflected in the opposite direction, and are routed in a substantially flat condition to the output of the dispenser apparatus. The labels are partially dispensed, substantially vertically from the dispenser, and a substantial number of sensors are provided to sense when all of the labels have been removed; and then the dispenser advances the label sheet assembly to partially dispense the next row of labels. The bar code reader may also sense the leading edge of the label sheet assembly to accurately control the incremental advancing of the label sheet assembly.
