A process for producing security tapes wound in webs which comprise the following layers:

- a support film (1),

- a layer of adhesive material (2) or adhesive layer (2), positioned on the internal surface of the support film,

- a protective film (3) which is coated with an antiadhesive material on the side contacting the exposed surface of the adhesive layer, the protective film (3) being cut longitudinally from the web in two parts (3a) and (3b),

optionally, between the support film (1) and the layer of adhesive material (2), one or more additional layers are inserted,

said process comprising the following passages:



a1) optionally application on the internal surface of the support film (1) of one or more additional layers,

b) application of the adhesive layer (2) on the internal surface of the last additional layer applied, when present, or on the internal surface of the support film (1),

c) application of the protective film (3) to the adhesive layer (2),

d) cutting longitudinally the protective film (3) to form two parts (3a) and (3b),

e) winding the security tape in web.

A tag tape 101 comprising a plurality of RFID tag main bodies 90, and a first tape 101A and a second tape 101B provided on opposite sides in the tape thickness direction so as to position the plurality of RFID tag main bodies 90 therebetween, characterized in that a separation sheet 101g of the second tape 101B comprises a peel-off display part M1 for imparting to the user the peel-off mode of the separation sheet 101g.

This invention relates to a method of forming an RFID article, the method comprising the steps of:

• providing an RFID webstock of polymeric material having a plurality of recesses, each of the recesses containing an RFID chip;
• providing a second web having antennas as spaced thereon;
• dividing the RFID webstock into a plurality of sections, each of the sections including one or more of the RFID chips;
• indexing the pitch of the RFID sections from high density on said RFID webstock, to a relatively low density on an RFID inlay stock; and
• attaching the sections to a plurality of antennas in an automatic continuous process, so that each of the RFID chips is adjacent to one of the antennas to form the RFID inlay stock.

A label-seal and improved label-seal manufacturing method, belonging to the field of labels and similar self-adhesives and that were developed to provide an optimized way to produce this label; such method comprises, essentially, the stages of: A)-Feeding the self-adhesive material tape formed: by a paper, plastic or similar (2) tape; rear adhesive layer (4); and liner (5); B)- First printing performed in the lower region (2)' of tape (2); C)- Cutting and extraction of the upper tape (2)" part made of paper, plastic or similar (2) that is not used; D)- Delamination of the self-adhesive material (2)'-(4)-(5) to separate liner (5) of the lower tape (2)' region; E)- Mounting of the heat-shrinkable plastic film (11) in the lower tape (2)' region, gluing their overlapped edges; F)- Liner relamination; G) Eventual, printing over the plastic film (11); - H)- Cutting for the formation of label-seals and rewinding of the "skeleton"; and I)- Winding of the label-seal tapes (1)-(10)-(5); label-seal (1)-(10) remains with the plastic film gluing edge (11) under the label body edge (2) and glued to it through its own adhesive (4) of the later and within these solutions of the method and label being foreseen varieties for the label-seal (1)-(10) production with upper film (11) or film upper (11) and lower (11)' and in such a way that these films are glued under the label (1) with their own rear adhesive (4) or over the label (1) with front glue fillets (100), (100)' appropriate for this gluing.

A label and a method for producing same comprising a first layer attached to a second layer, the first layer including a line of weakness on the surface of the first layer opposite the side that attaches to the second layer. The line of weakness is partially or wholly within or adjacent a boundary defined by the perimeter of the second layer. Also provided is a label and a method for producing same comprising afirst layer with a cut out window, the section of material that is cut to form the window being attached to the first layer adjacent the window as a second layer.

In order to render the fraudulent reproduction of labels difficult and in order to enable a check on the lawful origin of a labelled product, the substrate of the semi-finished product, in addition to being lacquered on the front, is printed and then personalized on the rear with invisible Wood's ink or its derivatives and is protected with adhesive, which is then attached to a siliconized substrate.

The present invention relates to a label structure for protected printing, comprising a transparent face material (1) being the actual label, an adhesive layer (2) and a removable rear protective layer (3). The in­vention is distinguished in that the back of the face material (1) is provided with preprinted mirror-inverted information text (6) and subsequently coated with the adhesive layer (2) and the protective layer (3). Both the adhesive layer and the protective layer have common, open fields in the form of windows (5) through which additional information (7) is adapted to be printed in mirror-inverted print on the back of said face material. Both preprinted information (6) and subsequently printed information (7) will be protected by said transparent face material (1) when the label is attached to a sub­strate.
