Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1298626A1] The invention relates to labels which are adhesively attached to the outside of a stack of packages or articles which packages or articles are combined on a pallet typically by a stretch wrapped film. Such stretch wrapped stacks are highly stable but due to the stretch in the film used for holding the stack together and depending on the compressibility of the packages or articles, the stack will shrink by a certain amount during further handing and shipment. Such stretch wrapped stacks are usually provided with labels, which have to allow the stretch wrapped stack to shrink and be deformed to a certain extent during handing and shipment. The present invention relates to labels, which are designed, to achieve a substantial improvement in stability after having been applied to a stretch wrapped stack of packages or articles. <IMAGE>
