Product Description
3M™ Triangle Void Polyester Label Products FMV01202 and FMV01402 are a tamper-
indicating stock designed to provide a triangle pattern in the facestock when removal is
attempted. These label products utilize 3M™ Adhesive P1410 which is an aggressive
tackified emulsion acrylic adhesive that offers excellent adhesion to a wide variety of
substrates, including polyolefins.

Features
• Meets CONEG requirements.
• Adhesive dry ingredients are listed by FDA as indirect food contact additives when
used in food packaging with minimum opportunity for exposure. See 21 CFR 175.105.
• Liner is designed for high-speed die cutting and matrix stripping. Not recommended
for sheet on press applications. This liner has been remoisturized after silicone coating
to restabilize the sheet and reduce side curl.

Printing
• Gloss topcoat is designed to be printable with a variety of film inks and thermal
transfer ribbons. The following inks and thermal transfer ribbons have been
evaluated and found to give excellent adhesion when tested with 3M™ Tape 610
and 3M™ Tape 810. However, press conditions vary and proper evaluation using
your specific conditions is critical and highly recommended for successful ink and
ribbon adhesion.

Die-Cutting
It is recommended that the user test for the presence of the triangle pattern on every roll
of label seals as they process them, to insure the product quality and consistency. Which
can be done by laminating a label seal to an untreated polyester film test surface. The
label seal should be wiped down with a squeegee, allowed to dwell 10 minutes, and
then removed to observe the presence and functions of the triangle pattern on both the
facestock and the substrate. It is also recommended that the user test each lot of label
seals on the actual application surface to assure the function of the “void” message.
Dispensing
As care should be taken not to disturb the tamper-indicating feature by pre-destructing
the triangle void pattern when manually removing the label from the liner, slowly
remove the liner from the label at a 90° angle. It is recommended that the user test
samples for each roll of label seals by laminating a representative label seal to the
specific application surface to assure its function meets expectations. This test can be
run after 10 minutes dwell; however, final judgement should be based on 72 hours
dwell at room temperature prior to testing.
Application
The tamper-indicating mechanism (i.e. the “void” message both on the facestock
and on the substrate) depends upon adequate adhesion of the label to the substrate.
A sufficient bond may not develop on all surfaces due to low surface energy (e.g.
PTFE), contaminated or textured surfaces. Therefore, it is important to determine the
suitability of the product in the intended application by carefully pretesting. The
primary function of the products is to effect a non-transferable (non-reusable) label
seal by causing the “void” message to appear on the facestock when removal from the
substrate is attempted. As a result of the primary function, a “void” message is also
transferred to the substrate and can be removed by hand rubbing or by solvent wiping.
Our tamper-indicating product line is designed to indicate tampering by destructing
when an attempt is made to remove the label. Since no tamper-indicating feature is
100% tamper proof, careful consideration must be taken when designing label seals.
When the consequences of tampering could be severe, such as injury or loss of human
life or significant monetary loss, these products are not recommended as the sole
means of package or product tamper indication. In these instances, additional
methods in combination with the labels should be considered so that the tamper-
indicating features are commensurate with the requirements of the application.

Storage Conditions
Store under normal conditions of 70°F (21°C) and 50% relative humidity. To
minimize the effects of humidity on the products, package the die-cut and printed
stock in polyethylene bags. Low density polyethylene (2-4 mils) can help prevent
humidity penetration.
Shelf Life
To obtain best performance, use this product within two years from the date of
manufacture.
