ABSTRACT:
A heat transfer label, a method of manufacturing a heat transfer label and a method of labeling untreated or minimally treated polyethylene, polypropylene polymers and polyethylene-polypropylene copolymer containers and sheets that are at room temperature or heated up to 180 degrees Fahrenheit, entail providing a heat transfer label that includes a support portion and a transfer portion over the support portion for transfer of the transfer portion from the support portion to the article upon application of heat to the support portion while the transfer portion is placed in contact with the article. The transfer portion comprises a single or multiple color design. The transfer portion then is transferred from the support portion to the article.
