Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To display easily the color of the content in a paint container, in an excellent appearance, by providing the surface of the container with a color part having almost the same color as the paint, and by attaching a label having a window through which the color part of the container can be seen. SOLUTION: A stretch label 3 is formed by subjecting a self-stretchable film to proper printing, etc., and by processing it into a cylindrical shape. After it is attached to a container 2, part of the stretch label 3 is cut out to form a window 4 so that the surface of the container 2 can be seen. The stretch label 3 is allowed to be fitted round the can container 2 by means of its elastic shrinkage force after being placed round the can container 2, having a color part 5 partly disposed on the surface of its body which is colored by being painted with paint as the contents of it, in such a way that the color part 5 and the window 4 coincide. The paint container 1 thus obtained makes the check of the color of the paint easy and proper at the time of its purchase by allowing the color part 5 with the paint as the contents applied to it to be seen.

FIG. 1 shows a paint container 1 of the present invention in which a can 2 made of metal or the like is filled with paint as a content, sealed by a lid 6, and a stretch label 3 is wound around the outer periphery of a body. Reference numeral 5 denotes a colored portion provided on the surface of the body of the can container 2, and reference numeral 4 denotes a window portion formed by cutting out a part of the stretch label 3 so that the colored portion 5 can be seen. The stretch label 3 is printed with an indication 7 such as the product name of the paint and how to use it.

The stretch label 3 is processed into a tubular shape by appropriately printing it on a film (for example, a thickness of 20 to 150 μm) made of low-density polyethylene having self-stretchability, ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer, ionomer resin, polyvinyl chloride, etc. Formed. Further, the stretch label 3 has a window 4 formed by cutting a part of the stretch label 3 so that the surface of the container can be visually observed after being attached to the container 2.
