RE-SEALABLE LID FILMS AND LABELS AND SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PRODUCING THE SAME

摘要

Re-sealable lid films and labels include cut patterns of different dimension in upper and lower material layers, whereby when an upper layer of material is peeled back, a bottom layer portion is exposed. Exposure of the bottom layer portion advantageously exposes printed indicia viewable on or through the bottom layer portion.

主权项

1. A re-sealable lid film, comprising:
a first film layer having a first surface and a second surface; a second film layer having a first surface and a second surface; a re-sealable adhesive layer disposed between the first film layer and the second film layer and adhering the second surfaces together in a releasable and re-sealable fashion; a first die cut pattern disposed in the first film layer and defining a first area of the first film layer, wherein the first die cut pattern extends through the first film layer but is not substantially present in the second film layer; and a second die cut pattern disposed in the second film layer and defining a second area of the second film layer, wherein the second die cut pattern extends through the second film layer but is not substantially present in the first film layer, wherein the second area is larger than and encompasses the first area, whereby when the second film layer is releasably removed from the first film layer at the first die cut pattern, the portion of the first film layer defined by the first area remains adhered to the second film layer thereby exposing a portion of the re-sealable adhesive layer between the first die cut pattern and the second die cut pattern.
