Process for making a post-assembly markable label

A method of producing a laminated label structure that includes a region that is markable after assembly of the label structure, comprising:

• providing a strip of base material having a front face;
• applying a low adhesion release material to a markable region of the front face of the strip of base material for being marked after assembly of the label structure;
• first cutting the base material to form a first portion of a perimeter of the label structure being formed;
• second adhering a laminate material to the front face of the base material including the markable region;
• third cutting the base material and the laminate material to form a second portion of the perimeter of the label structure being formed;
• fourth cutting the laminate material substantially along a margin of the markable region of the front face without severing the base material such that the portion of the laminate material located outside the perimeter of the label structure is continuous with the portion of the laminate material overlying the markable region inside the perimeter of the label structure;
• and
• peeling away from the base material the portion of the laminate material overlying the markable region by peeling away the portion of the laminate material located outside the perimeter of the label structure which is continuous with the portion overlying markable region.
