Abstract
Abstract A printed insert for food packages consisting of a film laminate including a central core layer (11) of biaxially oriented polymeric film printed on one or both sides (12, 13), then coated on both sides with a layer of adhesive (14, 16) over which is laminated an outer layer of transparent, grease-resistant, biaxially oriented polymeric film (17, 18), the resultant laminate sealing the printing ink.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
143 words
A message-carrying insert comprising a grease and oil resistant, plastic film laminate adapted for insertion into packages containing food, said laminate including a central core layer of biaxially oriented polymeric film printed on one or both sides with a message to be displayed, a first layer of adhesive disposed above and adjacent said central core layer, a second layer of adhesive disposed below and adjacent said central core layer, a first layer of transparent, grease-resistant, biaxially oriented polymeric film disposed above and adjacent said first layer of adhesive, a second layer of transparent, grease-resistant, biaxially oriented polymeric film disposed below and adjacent said second layer of adhesive, whereby said laminate prevents contact between moisture from the food product and the printing ink disposed on said central core, resulting in a plastic insert of high clarity which is substantially unaffected by contact with food.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
143 words
A message-carrying insert comprising a grease and oil resistant, plastic film laminate adapted for insertion into packages containing food, said laminate including a central core layer of biaxially oriented polymeric film printed on one or both sides with a message to be displayed, a first layer of adhesive disposed above and adjacent said central core layer, a second layer of adhesive disposed below and adjacent said central core layer, a first layer of transparent, grease-resistant, biaxially oriented polymeric film disposed above and adjacent said first layer of adhesive, a second layer of transparent, grease-resistant, biaxially oriented polymeric film disposed below and adjacent said second layer of adhesive, whereby said laminate prevents contact between moisture from the food product and the printing ink disposed on said central core, resulting in a plastic insert of high clarity which is substantially unaffected by contact with food.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
30 words
A plastic film laminate as in Claim 1 in which said first layer of transparent, grease-resistant, biaxially oriented polymeric film is selected from the group consisting of polypropylene and polystyrene.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
30 words
A plastic film laminate as in Claim 1 in which said second layer of transparent, grease-resistant, biaxially oriented polymeric film is selected from the group consisting of polypropylene and polystyrene.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
19 words
A plastic film laminate as in Claim 1 in which said central core layer of polymeric film is opaque.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
16 words
A plastic film laminate as in Claim 1 in which said central core layer is polystyrene.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
17 words
A plastic film laminate as in Claim 1 in which said central core layer is opaque polystyrene.
Claim 8
Independent Claim
91 words
A method of producing a plastic film laminate adapted to form a plurality of grease and oil resistant, message-carrying inserts adapted for insertion into packages containing food, the steps of the method comprising: a) printing a message on one or both sides of a central core layer of biaxially oriented polymeric film; b) coating both sides of said printed central core layer with adhesive; and c) laminating upper and lower outer layers of transparent, grease-resistant, biaxially oriented polymeric film over said layers of adhesive thereby sealing said printed central core layer.
Claim 9
Independent Claim
91 words
A method of producing a plastic film laminate adapted to form a plurality of grease and oil resistant, message-carrying inserts adapted for insertion into packages containing food, the steps of the method comprising: a) printing a message on one or both sides of a central core layer of biaxially oriented polymeric film; b) coating both sides of said printed central core layer with adhesive; and c) laminating upper and lower outer layers of transparent, grease-resistant, biaxially oriented polymeric film over said layers of adhesive thereby sealing said printed central core layer.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
30 words
A method as in Claim 7 including the step of sheeting said film laminate so as to form separate sheets, each of which include a plurality of said printed insert.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
23 words
A method as in Claim 8 including the step of separating said sheet into individual inserts adapted for insertion into a food package.
