Patent No. EP3105054 (titled "Linerless Washable Label, Apparatus And Method For Preparing A Label") was filed by UPM Raflatac on Oct 8, 2014. The application was issued on Jul 7, 2021.

Patent Summary

A linerless self-adhesive label for containers, comprising a release layer, a thermoplastic polymer layer, a second adhesive layer, a first layer comprising a thermoplastic polymer or fiber-based material, and a first adhesive layer comprising a pressure sensitive adhesive. The label is designed for easy removal from containers during washing, without leaving residue or requiring a separate liner. The label structure includes a release layer to prevent labels from sticking together during washing, and a thermoplastic polymer layer that provides stiffness and facilitates washability. The label can be produced using a method that involves printing on the label material, separating the layers, and laminating them together with a second adhesive layer.
