Abstract

The application relates to a printable shelf talker label, a roll comprising one or more printable, die-cuttable shelf talker labels and a sheet comprising one or more printable shelf talker labels.
An embodiment comprises a laser printable shelf talker label sheet comprising one or more removable shelf talker labels. The shelf talker label sheet comprises a printable face layer laminated to a support layer, and one or more die cut removable shelf talker labels. The one or more shelf talker labels comprise at least the printable face layer comprising a first information portion and a second information portion, the support layer being adhesively attached to the face layer portion corresponding to the second information portion, the support layer portion being detachably attached to the face layer portion corresponding to the first information portion, and the printable face layer comprising optically transparent, fiber based material.

First claim

1 . A shelf talker label comprising a face layer and a support layer, wherein
the face layer comprises a printable information surface and an adhesive surface, the printable information surface comprises a first information portion and a second information portion, the support layer is adhesively attached to an adhesive surface portion of the face layer opposite to the second information portion, an adhesive surface portion of the face layer opposite to the first information portion is adhesively attachable, and the printable face layer comprises optically transparent, fiber based material.

2 . A shelf talker label according to the claim 1 , wherein opacity of the first information portion is 10-30%, or 5-10%, or 3-5% smaller than opacity of the second information portion.

3 . A shelf talker label according to the claim 1 , wherein the second information portion of the face layer comprises printing or background printing, which printing or background printing is optionally coloured.

4 . A shelf talker label according to the claim 1 , wherein the adhesive surface portion of the face layer opposite to the second information portion comprises coloured adhesive.

5 . A shelf talker label according to the claim 1 , wherein the second information portion of the face layer and the support layer attached to it comprise substantially similar shape and external dimensions differing of 1-5 mm, or 2-4 mm.

6 . A shelf talker label according to the claim 1 , wherein the first information portion comprises 5-50% of the printable information surface and the second information portion comprises 50-95% of the printable information surface.

7 . A shelf talker label according to the claim 1 , wherein the support layer is attached to the face layer via optically transparent adhesive, wherein optionally the adhesive comprises acrylic emulsion adhesive.

8 . A shelf talker label according to the claim 1 , comprising a laser printable front surface.

9 . A laser printable shelf talker label sheet comprising one or more removable shelf talker labels, wherein
the shelf talker label sheet comprises a printable face layer laminated to a support layer, the shelf talker label sheet comprises one or more die cut removable shelf talker labels, and
the one or more shelf talker labels comprise at least
the printable face layer comprising a first information portion and a second information portion,
the support layer being adhesively attached to the face layer portion corresponding to the second information portion,
the support layer portion being detachably attached to the face layer portion corresponding to the first information portion, and
the printable face layer comprising optically transparent, fiber based material.

10 . A shelf talker label sheet according to the claim 9 , wherein opacity of the first information portion is 10-30%, or 5-10%, or 3-5% smaller than opacity of the second information portion.

11 . A shelf talker label sheet according to the claim 9 , wherein the second information portion of the face layer comprises printing or background printing, which printing or background printing is optionally coloured.

12 . A shelf talker label sheet according to the claim 9 , wherein the adhesive surface portion of the face layer opposite to the second information portion comprises coloured adhesive.

13 . A shelf talker label sheet according to the claim 9 , wherein the second information portion and the corresponding portion of the support layer, attached to the second information portion, comprise substantially similar shape and external dimensions differing of 1-5 mm, or 2-4 mm.

14 . A shelf talker label sheet according to the claim 9 , wherein the first information portion comprises 5-50% of the printable information surface and the second information portion comprises 50-95% of the printable information surface of the shelf talker label.

15 . A shelf talker label sheet according to the claim 9 , wherein the face layer comprises transparent paper or translucent paper.

16 . A shelf talker label sheet according to the claim 9 , wherein the face layer comprises paper comprising opacity of 10-35%, measured according to TAPPI-425.

17 . A shelf talker label sheet according to the claim 9 , wherein the support layer is attached to the face layer via adhesive, wherein the adhesive comprises transparent, translucent or semi-transparent adhesive.
