Abstract
Polymeric sheets or rolls suitable for in-line gravure printing and forming at high rates of production of in-mold labeled plastic containers comprise a polymeric transparent, translucent or contact clear substrate having a thickness in the range of 0.002 to 0.008 inches which is reverse gravure-printed and gravure overcoated on the container-facing side with a heat activatable adhesive and gravure coated on the opposite side with an antistatic coating. Such a sheet or roll can be printed and then cut into individual labels for affixing to the container as part of a unified in-molding process, without the need to manually stack and jog the sheets and labels into graphic registration. Recyclable containers are provided at high speed without missing labels or doubled labels due to feeding problems. The labels are firmly adherent, squeeze-release resistant labels and the indicia, because they are viewable through the labels themselves, are protected against spillage and abrasion.
