Abstract (en)

A linerless thermosensitive baggage tag is constructed from a substrate (12) having first and second faces (13, 14), with pressure sensitive adhesive (15) (such as acrylic or rubber based hot melt adhesive) applied to only a part of the second face (14). The thermosensitive layer (16) is on the substrate first face (13) and may or may not have a barrier coating (17). Baggage tag indicia (18, 19), such as claim check numbers, are formed on the thermosensitive layer, and a release coating (25) of a material that has a low adherence to the pressure sensitive layer covers the thermosensitive layer (and barrier coat if present). The release coating may be a UV curable silicone release coat. The substrate includes a perforation (21) separating each individual tag into a claim check portion (22) and a luggage application portion (23), both being imaged with the same claim check number. Printing (27) may also be provided on the second face of the substrate. <IMAGE>
