Faceless labels and related systems and methods

A multilayer laminate comprising:

• a support layer defining two oppositely directed faces;
• a first release layer disposed on one of the faces of the support layer;
• a second release layer disposed on another of the faces of the support layer, a composition of the first and second release layers being different;
• at least one preformed image or graphic disposed on and in physical contact with the first release layer;
• and
• at least one adhesive layer disposed on the at least one preformed image or graphic;
• wherein a release force of the first release layer is greater than a release force of the second release layer;
• wherein the release force of the first release layer is from about 30 g/inch to about 100 g/inch, and the release force of the second release layer is from about 10 g/inch to about 40 g/inch as measured under a TLMI test method;
• wherein a ratio of the release force of the second release layer to the release force of the first release layer is within a range of from 1:1.5 to 1:100, respectively;
• wherein the support layer consists essentially of a material selected from the group consisting of polyester film materials, polyolefin film materials, and combinations thereof;
• and
• wherein the support layer has a thickness of from about 3 mil to about 7 mil.
