ABSTRACT:
Pressure-sensitive adhesive labels are disclosed, as might be particularly useful for application with electrical cord sets. The label is utilized to provide long-term, cautionary information regarding the dangers associated with electrical cord sets. The surface area of the label exceeds the circumference of the cord set, thereby allowing the label to wrap about the circumference of the cord set and adhere to itself, while also securely attaching to the cord set. The label comprises a primary adhesive which features a high shear adhesion property. A paper liner is removed from the primary adhesive prior to application to the cord set. The primary adhesive is provided on a bottom surface of a facestock, which has a high tensile strength and is preferably formed substantially from a vinyl material. Preferably, the facestock is provided with plasticizers and is topcoated. Printing ink displays a cautionary message on the topcoated upper surface of the facestock. A transparent overlaminate film, preferably formed from polypropylene, overlies the printed facestock. The overlaminate film is attached to the uppermost surface of the label by a transparent overlaminate adhesive. The labels of the present invention are able to withstand various harsh environmental conditions, and are therefore able to resist "wear and tear" which is encountered, often even upon outdoor use.
