Multifunctional label, system and method for producing a multifunctional label

A multifunctional label includes a radiation protection layer which is designed to predeterminedly reduce the transmission of electromagnetic radiation in a given wavelength range. The multifunctional label further includes a gas barrier layer, which is designed to reduce the transmission of a gaseous substance in a predetermined manner. The radiation protection layer and the gas barrier layer are directly or indirectly coupled to each other in the common multifunctional label.

Claims preview

1 . A multifunctional label ( 1 ), comprising: a radiation protection layer ( 2 ) which is configured to predeterminedly reduce a transmission of electromagnetic radiation in an ultraviolet and/or visible spectral range, a gas barrier layer ( 3 ) which is formed as a transparent film element, at least in sections, and configured to reduce a transmission of a gaseous substance in a predetermined manner, an adhesive layer ( 4 , 41 , 42 , 43 ) which couples the radiation protection layer ( 2 ) to the gas barrier layer ( 3 ), and an adhesive weakening agent ( 9 ), which is arranged between the radiation protection layer ( 2 ) and the gas barrier layer ( 3 ), so that the adhesive layer ( 4 , 41 , 42 , 43 ) is predeterminedly weakened in sections and the radiation protection layer ( 2 ) and the gas barrier layer ( 3 ) can be detached from one another in sections and can be bonded to one another again. 2 . The multifunctional label ( 1 ) according to claim 1 , wherein the radiation protection layer ( 2 ) is designed as a film which predeterminedly reduces the transmission of ultraviolet radiation and/or visible light. 3 . The multifunctional label ( 1 ) according to claim 1 , further comprising a film layer in addition to the radiation protection layer ( 2 ), the gas barrier layer ( 3 ), and the adhesive layer ( 4 , 41 , 42 , 43 ); wherein the gas barrier layer ( 3 ) is formed on the film layer by vapor deposition and/or printing; or wherein the film layer comprises a carrier element and the gas barrier layer ( 3 ) is formed on the carrier element by vapor deposition and/or printing.
