Thanks, FNB. That was me looking for the core to see if there were any more identifiers like a product code so I could reference some additional information to determine how much of this was produced. It looks like there isn't any additional info in the core. But, thanks for getting the...

Well, this was the answer I was going to attempt to get but I will cease and desist if my contributions are viewed as tangential or off-topic.

Thanks for the pictures. I will get an opinion on this product and its prevalence on Monday. Even if the logo printed product is a small portion of their business, it's still hundreds of thousands of rolls a year. I'm sure if this becomes a key point in the prosecution, sales records will be...

Yes, the printing is definitely on the outside of the roll. There would be no reason to print a logo or other information on the inside and cover it with adhesive (it adds cost). The only time I've seen that is if it is a product that functions as a "tamper evident" product and I've only seen...

When duct tape is made, there is a silver (or other colored film) with the printing that is laminated to the cloth scrim and then the adhesive is applied. Prior to the lamination step, there is a polyethlyene film that is extruded (melted) on top of the silver (or other color) film. This top...

Well, low cost or value products generally won't have the surface printing as it adds cost. The cardboard core will have the logo, usage restictions, size, etc. printed in it. Sometimes, super low end products will be on a blank core. I'm not sure what the confusion is about the heart...

Very common to have a surface print with the logo on duct tape. You also see this with packaging tapes i.e. for carton sealing. It is meant to be noticable.

I am intimately familiar with the design, manufacture, testing, and marketing of duct tape and Henkel is a very well-known and common brand. It is also very common to have the manufacturers logo surface printed on the tape. Color, thread count, chemical composition via FTIR analysis of either...
