Abstract

Disclosed herein is a durable adhesive-based ink-printed polyolefin nonwoven which is suitable for a number of uses the most basic of which is where a printed nonwoven is needed and that nonwoven will possibly be subjected to an amount of abrasion which would prematurely remove the ink from the surface of the nonwoven web. The two main components of the present invention are an adhesive-based ink and a polyolefin-based substrate onto which the adhesive-based ink is applied. The resultant composite must have a crock value of 4 or greater.
