Definitions
- the present invention relates to adhesive labels and more particularly to self-adhesive labels, including safety labels.
- Self-adhesive security labels can be both authenticatable and tamper-proof.
- tamper-proof is meant in particular that they are destroyed in case of attempted separation (or peeling) of the substrate on which they were applied.
- An adhesive label has a generally printable or customizable structure on its front face, called a front face, and an adhesive layer on its back side.
- Some so-called “synthetic” adhesive labels comprise a polymer substrate, for example polyurethane (PU) or polyvinyl chloride (PVC), destructible.

- the front of this label is deliberately transparent or sufficiently transparent at the wavelengths of the UV and the visible on the one hand to allow the light, especially UV, to cross the front to reach the luminescence ink underneath and the exciting, and secondly to allow the wavelengths emitted by the ink in the visible of cross the frontal and so be seen in return.
- the frontal transmittance is at least 80% and preferably greater than 95% in the UV and the visible.
- Such a label has the disadvantage of requiring a transparent front, which can be binding on the aesthetic. Indeed, if the frontal is no longer transparent but opaque to visible light, it will absorb and / or diffuse the wavelengths of the visible and it will no longer be possible to see under UV irradiation the visible response of the luminescent ink present under the front, and thus to proceed to the verification of the authenticity of the label, the wavelengths of the visible not passing through the opaque front.
- This transparent front label made of polyethylene (PE), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), ortho-phthalaldehyde (OPA) or bi-oriented polypropylene (BOPP) is also an uniquely authenticatable label that does not present no features highlighting an attempt to falsify by destruction, tearing or cohesive rupture (delamination) of the frontal.

- the correct tracer authentication is verified through the front panel with the Reveal TM detector.
- This Polyart ® TE inkjet is a white and opaque Polyart ® label grade with a density of less than 0.6 g.cm-3, and low internal cohesion due to a high void content.
- Laboratory labels is carried out according to the invention using a front Polyart ® TE and a tracer sold by Stardust including an IR / ER tracer having a specific electromagnetic response between 1000 and 2000 nm under excitation of a diode IR light emitting at 940 nm, therefore in a wavelength range in which the Polyart ® TE has a high percentage of transmission.
- the manufacturing involves the following steps:
- the amounts of tracer to be incorporated in the intermediate layer are determined in order to have a good detection of the tracer through the front end with the IRIS detector of the Stardust company, through the thickness of the Polyart ® TE front end.
- the labels are applied to coated white cardboard cases.
- the correct tracer authentication is verified through the front of the label with an IRIS reader.
