The invention relates to providing a method for obtaining a multilayer film for thermally inducible shrink labels, products thereof and use of such products. The invention provides a multilayer film for labelling, the multilayer film comprising a first skin layer, a second skin layer and a core layer between the first skin layer and the second skin layer, wherein at least one of the first skin layer and the second skin layer comprises cyclic olefin copolymer and the core layer comprises copolymer of ethylene and butyl acrylate or propylene terpolymer.

Multilayer film for label and a method for providing such

A facestock for an adhesive label, an adhesive label and an adhesive label laminate including an uniaxially in machine direction oriented facestock is disclosed. According to an embodiment a core layer includes the following components: propylene homopolymer; a modifier consisting of at least one of the following: olefin elastomer, olefin plastomer and olefin block copolymer; and low density polyethylene. Further the use of the adhesive label for labelling of an article is also disclosed.

Label facestock

The invention relates to providing a method for obtaining a multilayer film for thermally inducible shrink labels, products thereof and use of such products.

The invention relates to a label laminate and a release liner of the label laminate. According to an embodiment release liner comprises a substrate comprising propylene block copolymer. The substrate may be oriented in a machine direction of the substrate. The substrate may have an elongation of the substrate in a machine direction of the substrate is less than 3% at a tension level between 200 and 1200 N/m. The substrate may have a ratio of 1% secant modulus in machine direction of the substrate to elongation in transverse direction of the substrate is between 2 and 15. Further the invention relates to a use of a release liner for self-adhesive label laminate and to a method for providing a label laminate.

Substrate for a label laminate, a label laminate and a method for manufacturing a label laminate

The invention relates to a heat shrink label () and a multilayer face film of the label (). According to an embodiment multilayer face film is oriented in one direction. The multilayer face film includes at least one layer comprising first cyclic olefin copolymer and second cyclic olefin copolymer and the first cyclic olefin copolymer is different from the second cyclic olefin copolymer. A glass transition temperature of the first cyclic olefin copolymer and the second cyclic olefin copolymer is between 50 and 90&#xb0; C. Further the application concerns a combination of a label () and an item (), a method for providing a heat shrink label (), a method for labelling an item () and a method for separating a label () from an item () labelled.
