Abstract

A pouch label is constructed from only two plies, provides two distinct pockets, and can optionally provide additional labels or printed material including forms. The first ply forms the label ply while the second ply is a liner ply die cut into at least two component parts, such that a first liner portion is circumscribed by a second liner portion. An adhesive is applied between the label ply and the liner ply such that the second liner ply portion is releasably held against the label ply, and only a portion of the periphery of the first liner ply portion is secured to the label ply such that a pouch is formed with the back of the label ply. The pouch is formed because there is no adhesive within the perimeter of the first liner portion. The label ply preferably includes at least one line of weakening scored across the pouch portion and positioned such that tearing the label ply along the line of weakening opens the pouch formed between the label ply and the first liner ply. Further, a tab portion juxtaposed with the pouch portion of the label ply adjacent to the pouch opening can be provided to ease placement, stuffing and sealing the pouch portion of the label.
