Abstract
An improved resealable folded label structure provided with a graduated pressure-sensitive adhesive profile which is applied to the label front cover contact side of an outer protective overlaminate so that the label cover adhesion surface and hinge connecting tab portion of the outer protective overlaminate have a substantially thicker pressure-sensitive adhesive layer than does the over-lap opening and resealing tab portion thereof, such that if a user inadvertently attempts to open the label from the hinge tab side, being the wrong side, the extra adhesive thickness applied thereto will provide sufficient adhesion to prevent delamination damage to the label until such time as the user realizes their error and then proceeds to open the label from the proper over-lapping reseal tap side.
