A label (10,20) with top, bottom and edge surfaces is attached to a thermoplastic substrate (21) by a method comprising the steps of : A. Placing the bottom surface of the label (10, 20) in contact with a surface of the substrate (21); B. Melting a portion of the substrate beneath the label or adjacent to an edge of the label; C. Drawing a portion(24) of the melted substrate over an edge of and onto the top surface of the label such that the portion of the melted substrate on the top surface of the label is continuous with the substrate; and D. Solidifying the melted substrate. The attachment does not require adhesive or mechanical fasteners, and the label and thermoplastic substrate can be made of any material that will withstand the conditions of the environment to which they will be exposed.

L'invention concerne un procédé de fixation permettant de fixer une étiquette (10,20) - ayant des surfaces supérieure, inférieure et de bord - sur un substrat thermoplastique (21), ledit procédé comprenant les étapes suivantes : A. Placer la surface inférieure de l'étiquette (10, 20) en contact avec une surface du substrat (21); B. Fondre une partie du substrat sous l'étiquette ou à proximité d'un bord de l'étiquette ; C. Tirer une partie (24) du substrat fondu sur un bord, et sur la surface supérieure de l'étiquette de sorte à ce que la partie du substrat fondu sur la surface supérieure de l'étiquette est continue avec le substrat ; et D. Solidifier le substrat fondu. Le rattachement ne nécessite pas d'adhésif ou de pièces de fixation mécaniques, et l'étiquette et le substrat thermoplastique peuvent se composer de n'importe quel matériau qui résistera aux conditions environnementales auxquelles ils seront exposés.
