Abstract
A method of producing a laminated label structure that includes a region that is markable after assembly of the label structure is disclosed. The method comprises providing a strip of base material having a front face, applying a release material to a markable region of the front face for being marked after assembly of the label structure, and cutting the base material to form a first portion of a perimeter of the label structure. The method further comprises positioning a laminate material over a portion of the front face including the markable region, cutting the base material and the laminate material to form a second portion of the perimeter, cutting the laminate material substantially along a margin of the markable region without severing the base material; and peeling away from the base material a portion of the laminate material overlying the markable region of the front face.
