Abstract

A method for making labels comprising providing a plastic substrate layer and a paper substrate layer. The paper substrate layer comprises a printed display information sheet, wherein the printed display information sheet comprises a plurality of display information tags arranged in an array. The plastic substrate layer is coupled to each of the rows of display information tags within a first portion of the display information tags to form a composite substrate row. A first line of perforations is cut into a width of the composite substrate at one or more first spaced intervals, a length of the first spaced intervals being defined by a length of the display information tags. A second line of perforations is cut into a width of the composite substrate at one or more second spaced intervals, a length of the second spaced intervals being defined by a height of the display information tags.

Dependent claims

A method of making a plurality of labels comprising:

(a) providing a plastic substrate layer;
(b) providing a paper substrate layer,
wherein the paper substrate layer comprises a printed display information sheet, wherein the printed display information sheet comprises a plurality of display information tags arranged in an array, the array having at least two columns and at least two rows of display information tags, wherein each of the display information tags comprises a first portion and a second portion;
(c) coupling the plastic substrate layer to each of the rows of display information tags only within the first portion of the display information tags to form a composite substrate;
and
(d) cutting a first line of perforations into a width of the composite substrate at one or more first spaced intervals, a length of the first spaced intervals being defined by a length of each of the display information tags;
and
(e) cutting a second line of perforations into a width of the composite substrate at one or more second spaced intervals, a length of the second spaced intervals being defined by a height of each of the display information tags.
