A system and method are disclosed for constructing a rotatable label and
attaching the rotatable label to a container. The rotatable label may
have a transparent portion and is temporarily secured to a container or
an inner label that is permanently secured to the container via a
temporary adhesive disposed on a leading edge of the rotatable label's
back surface. Permanent adhesive is disposed on the trailing edge of the
rotatable label's back surface. The rotatable label is then wrapped
around the container so that the trailing edge of the rotatable label's
back surface comes in contact with the rotatable label's front surface.
The rotatable label is then rotated with respect to the inner label or
container, thereby breaking the temporary bond formed by the temporary
adhesive between the rotatable label and inner label or container.
Alternatively, temporary adhesive may be disposed on the trailing edge of
the rotatable label's back surface to allow the rotatable label to be
easily removed from the container.In another embodiment, the rotatable
label includes a release tab releasably attached to an outer label. The
release tab is adhered to the container, or to an inner label adhered to
the container, to secure the outer label to the container while the outer
label is wrapped around the container. The release tab may then be
detached from the outer label to permit the outer label to be rotated
about the container.
