Zusammenfassung:A method of forming a label for a container is provided. The method comprises extruding at least one layer to form the label, increasing the surface energy of the label, and securing the label to a container with an adhesive. The texture can be formed onto the label by embossing, chemically etching or exposing the label material to UV radiation. The texture helps improve the adhesion of the label to the container. In another example, the label can be provided with a primer or an EVA heat seal coating to improve the adhesion of the label to a container.
