Labels and manufacture thereof

A method of producing a succession of self-adhesive labels carried on a backing of release material, the method comprising the steps of;

• (a) applying to a backing of release material a succession of first regions of permanent adhesive and a succession of second regions of resealable adhesive;
• and
• (b) disposing a succession of multilaminar folded labels to the adhesive regions whereby each multilaminar folded label is adhered to the backing of release material by one of the first regions of adhesive and one of the second regions of adhesive, the succession of multilaminar folded labels being disposed such that parts of the first and second regions are left exposed,
• said method further comprising the steps of:
• (c) applying a laminar material over the succession of multilaminar folded labels whereby the laminar material is adhered to the exposed parts of the first and second regions;
• and
• (d) cutting through the laminar material and through the applied multilaminar labels to form the self-adhesive labels, the cutting being performed whereby each self-adhesive label includes a portion of the laminar material which is adhered at opposed first and second edge regions thereof to the first and second regions of adhesive respectively.

A method of producing a succession of self-adhesive labels carried on a backing of release material, the method comprising the steps of:

• (a) applying to a backing of release material a succession of first regions of permanent adhesive and a succession of second regions of resealable adhesive, the first and second regions being oriented in pairs of those regions and being substantially adjacent to each other;
• and
• (b) disposing a succession of multilaminar folded labels to the adhesive regions whereby each multilaminar folded label is adhered to the backing of release material by one of the first regions of adhesive and one of the second regions of adhesive, the succession of multilaminar folded labels being disposed such that parts of the first and second regions are left exposed,

A method of producing a succession of self-adhesive labels carried on a web comprising a backing of release material, the method comprising the steps of:

• (a) applying to a backing of release material a succession of first and second regions of adhesive;
• (b) disposing a succession of multilaminar folded labels to the adhesive regions whereby each multilaminar folded label is adhered to the backing of release material by a pair of the first and second regions of adhesive, the succession of multilaminar folded labels being disposed such that parts of the first and second regions are left exposed, said method further comprising the steps of
• (c) applying a laminar material over the succession of multilaminar folded labels whereby the laminar material is adhered to the exposed parts of the first and second regions;
• and
• (d) cutting through the laminar material and through the applied multilaminar labels to form the self-adhesive labels, the cutting being performed whereby each self-adhesive label includes a portion of the laminar material which is adhered at opposed first and second edge regions thereof to the first and second regions of adhesive respectively.
