arrears on April 30 and October 30 of each year, beginning April 30, 2020. The notes will mature on April 30, 2030 unless redeemed prior to that date. We

issued in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.
Investing in the notes involves risks that are described in the "Risk Factors" section of this prospectus

Table of Contents
About this Prospectus Supplement
This document has two parts. The first part, which is the prospectus supplement, describes the specific terms of the offering and the notes being
offered. The second part, which is the accompanying prospectus, gives more general information, some of which may not apply to the offering. If the
description of the offering varies between this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, you should rely on the information in this
prospectus supplement.
Before purchasing any of the notes, you should carefully read both this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, together with the
additional information described in this prospectus supplement under "Incorporation of Documents by Reference" and in the accompanying prospectus
under "Where You Can Find More Information" and "Incorporation of Certain Documents by Reference."
You should rely only on the information we provide or incorporate by reference in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus.
Neither we nor the underwriters have authorized any other person to provide you with different information. We are offering to sell the notes offered by
this prospectus supplement, and seeking offers to buy the notes, only in jurisdictions where offers and sales are permitted. The information contained in
this prospectus supplement is accurate only as of the date of this prospectus supplement, regardless of the time of delivery of this prospectus supplement or
any sales of the notes. The information contained in any document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference is accurate as of the date of the
applicable document.
References to the "Company," "we," "our" and "us" and similar terms mean Avery Dennison Corporation and its subsidiaries, unless the context
otherwise requires. References to "Avery Dennison" mean Avery Dennison Corporation, unless the context otherwise requires.
It is expected that delivery of the notes will be made against payment therefor on or about March 11, 2020, which will be the fifth business day
following the date of pricing of the notes (such settlement cycle being herein referred to as T+5). Under Rule 15c6-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in two business days, unless the parties to any such
trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the notes on the date of pricing or the next two business days will be required,
by virtue of the fact that the notes initially will settle in T+5, to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed
settlement.
Purchasers of notes who wish to trade the notes on the date of pricing or the next two business days should consult their own advisors.

Forward-Looking Statements
This prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus and the information incorporated or deemed incorporated herein and therein by
reference may contain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements, which
are not statements of historical fact, contain estimates, assumptions, projections and/or expectations regarding future events, which may or may not occur.
Words such as "aim," "anticipate," "assume," "believe," "continue," "could," "estimate," "expect," "foresee," "guidance," "intend," "may," "might,"
"objective," "plan," "potential," "project," "seek," "shall," "should," "target," "will," "would" or variations thereof, and other expressions that refer to
future events and trends, identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements, and financial or other business targets, are subject to
certain risks and uncertainties, which could cause our actual results to differ materially from the expected results, performance or achievements expressed

We believe that the most significant risk factors that could affect our financial performance in the near-term include: (1) the impacts to underlying
demand for our products and/or foreign currency fluctuations from global economic conditions, political uncertainty, and changes in governmental
regulations; (2) competitors' actions, including pricing, expansion in key markets, and product offerings; (3) the degree to which higher costs can be offset
with productivity measures and/or passed on to customers through price increases, without a significant loss of volume; and (4) the execution and
integration of acquisitions.
Certain risks and uncertainties that may impact us are discussed in more detail under "Risk Factors" in this prospectus supplement and "Risk
Factors" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended December 28, 2019, and other subsequent filings, and include, but are not limited to, risks and uncertainties relating to the following:

Covenants
The indenture contains covenants that, among other things, restrict our ability to:


· incur debt secured by liens; and


· enter into sale and leaseback transactions.

These covenants are, however, subject to significant exceptions. See "Description of the

The indenture governing the notes otherwise permits us to incur additional indebtedness. In

addition, our subsidiaries may also create and issue debt securities that will be structurally
senior to the notes.

Further issues
We may from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the holders of the notes, create
and issue additional notes having the same terms as and ranking equally and ratably with the
notes in all respects (or in all respects except for the payment of interest accruing prior to the
issue date of such additional notes or except, in some cases, for the first payment of interest
following the issue date of such additional notes), as described under "Description of the
Notes--Further Issues," provided that if any such additional notes are not fungible with the
notes offered hereby for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such additional notes will be
issued under a different CUSIP number.

The notes will be issued in book-entry form and will be represented by permanent global

registered in the name of Cede & Co., DTC's nominee. Beneficial interests in the notes will
be shown on, and transfers will be effected only through, records maintained by DTC or its
nominee; and these interests may not be exchanged for certificated notes, except in limited
circumstances. See "Description of the Notes--Book-Entry Procedures."

In the first quarter of 2019, we adopted Accounting Standards Codification ("ASU") No. 2016-02, Leases. This ASU requires lessees to
recognize on their balance sheets the rights and obligations created by leases. As allowed under this ASU, we elected to adopt it using a
modified retrospective approach. This approach applies to all leases that existed at or commenced after the date of our initial application. As
such, prior year comparative periods have not been adjusted.

Risk Factors
An investment in the notes is subject to risk. Before you decide to invest in the notes, you should consider the risk factors below as well as the risk
factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A. "Risk Factors" and Part II, Item 7. "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2019, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Risk Related to the Notes
The notes will be subject to prior claims of any of our secured creditors, if any, and your right to receive payments on the notes will be structurally
subordinated to our subsidiaries' existing and future liabilities.
The notes are our senior unsecured obligations. Holders of our secured indebtedness will have claims that are prior to your claims as holders of the
notes, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness. The indenture governing the notes permits us and our subsidiaries to incur
additional secured indebtedness. In the event of a bankruptcy, liquidation, dissolution, reorganization or similar proceeding, our pledged assets would be
available to satisfy obligations of our secured indebtedness before any payment could be made on the notes. To the extent that these assets could not satisfy
in full our secured indebtedness, the holders of the indebtedness would have a claim for any shortfall that would rank equally in right of payment with the
notes. In any of the foregoing events, we cannot assure you that there will be sufficient assets to pay amounts due on the notes. As a result, holders of the
notes may receive less, ratably, than holders of our secured indebtedness.
In addition, we currently conduct a substantial portion of our operations through our subsidiaries, and our subsidiaries have significant liabilities. We
may, and in some cases we have plans to, conduct additional operations through our subsidiaries in the future and, accordingly, the obligations of our
subsidiaries could increase. Our cash flow and our ability to service our debt, including the notes, therefore partially depends upon the earnings of our
subsidiaries, and we depend on the distribution of earnings, loans or other payments by those subsidiaries to us.
Our subsidiaries are separate legal entities. Our subsidiaries will not guarantee the notes. Accordingly, our subsidiaries have no obligation to pay any
amounts due on the notes or, subject to existing or future contractual obligations between us and our subsidiaries, to provide us with funds to meet our
payment obligations, whether by dividends, distributions, loans or other payments. In addition, any payment of dividends, distributions, loans or advances
by our subsidiaries to us could be subject to statutory or contractual restrictions and taxes. Payments to us by our subsidiaries would also be contingent
upon our subsidiaries' earnings and other business considerations.
As of December 28, 2019, our subsidiaries had approximately $99.7 million of indebtedness and finance lease obligations. As of December 28,
2019, as adjusted to give effect to the offering and the use of proceeds therefrom, we had indebtedness and finance lease obligations of approximately $2.0
billion and no outstanding secured indebtedness.
Our right to receive any assets of any of our subsidiaries upon liquidation or reorganization, and, as a result, the right of the holders of the notes to
participate in those assets, will be effectively subordinated to the claims of that subsidiary's creditors, including trade creditors and preferred stockholders,
if any. The notes do not restrict the ability of our subsidiaries to incur additional liabilities. In addition, even if we were a creditor of any of our
subsidiaries, our rights as a creditor would be subordinate to any security interest of other creditors in the assets of our subsidiaries and any indebtedness of

our subsidiaries senior to indebtedness held by us.
The limited covenants applicable to the notes may not provide protection against some events or developments that may affect our ability to repay the
notes or the trading prices for the notes.
The indenture governing the notes, among other things, does not:

·
require us to maintain any financial ratios or specific levels of net worth or liquidity and, accordingly, does not protect holders of the notes in

the event that we experience significant adverse changes in our financial condition or results of operations;

S-6
Table of Contents
·
limit our ability to incur indebtedness, including secured indebtedness (subject to compliance with the lien covenant), that is equal in right of

payment to the notes;


·
limit our subsidiaries' ability to incur indebtedness that would be structurally senior to the notes;


·
restrict our ability to repurchase or prepay our securities; or

·
restrict our ability to make investments or to repurchase or pay dividends or make other payments in respect of our common stock or other

securities ranking junior to the notes.
For these reasons, you should not consider the lien and sale-leaseback covenants in the indenture as significant factors in evaluating whether to
invest in the notes.
Our credit ratings may not reflect all risks of your investment in the notes and our ratings may be downgraded in the future.
The credit ratings assigned to the notes are limited in scope, and do not address all material risks relating to an investment in the notes, but rather
reflect only the view of each rating agency at the time its rating is issued. We cannot assure you that these credit ratings will remain in effect for any given
period of time or that a rating will not be lowered, suspended or withdrawn entirely by the applicable rating agency, if, in the rating agency's sole
judgment, circumstances so warrant. A rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold any security. Each agency's rating should be evaluated
independently of any other agency's rating. Actual or anticipated changes or downgrades in our credit ratings, including any announcement that our ratings
are under further review for a downgrade, could affect the trading prices for, or liquidity of, the notes and increase our corporate borrowing costs.
In addition, we are subject to periodic review by independent credit rating agencies. An increase in the level of our outstanding indebtedness, or other
events that could have an adverse impact on our business, properties, financial condition, results of operations or prospects, may cause these rating agencies
to downgrade our credit rating generally, and the ratings on the notes, which could adversely impact the trading prices for, or the liquidity of, the notes.
Any downgrade could also adversely affect our cost of borrowing, limit our access to the capital markets or result in more restrictive covenants in future
debt agreements.
We may not be able to repurchase the notes upon a Change of Control Triggering Event.
Upon a Change of Control and a Rating Event (in each case, as defined in "Description of the Notes") (a "Change of Control Triggering Event"), we
will be required to make an offer to each holder of notes to repurchase all or any part of such holder's notes at a price equal to 101% of their principal
amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of purchase. If we experience a Change of Control Triggering Event, we
may not have sufficient financial resources available to satisfy our obligations to repurchase the notes. In addition, our ability to repurchase the notes may
be limited by law or the terms of other agreements relating to our indebtedness outstanding at the time. Any failure to purchase the notes as required under
the indenture governing the notes would result in a default under the indenture, which could have material adverse consequences for us and the holders of
the notes.
An active trading market may not develop for the notes.
The notes are a new issue of securities with no established trading market. We do not intend to apply for listing of the notes on any securities
exchange or for inclusion of the notes on any automated dealer quotation system. The underwriters have advised us that they presently intend to make a
secondary market in the notes as permitted by applicable law. However, the underwriters are not obligated to make a market in the notes and may cease
their market-making activities at any time at their discretion and without notice. In addition, the liquidity of the trading market in the notes, and the market
prices quoted for the notes, may be adversely affected by changes

in the overall market for securities and by changes in the financial performance or the outlook or market expectations of our future performance, and/or
companies in our industry generally. As a result, we cannot assure you that an active trading market will develop or be maintained for the notes, as to the
liquidity of any markets that do develop or as to your ability to sell any notes you may own or the prices at which you may be able to sell your notes.
An increase in market interest rates could result in a decrease in the value of the notes.
In general, as market interest rates rise, notes bearing interest at a fixed rate generally decline in value because the premium, if any, over market
interest rates declines. Consequently, if you purchase fixed rate notes and market interest rates increase, the market value of your fixed rate notes may
decline. We cannot predict the future level of market interest rates.
We may redeem the notes at our option, which may adversely affect your return on the notes.
The notes are redeemable at our option, and we may, therefore, choose to redeem all or part of the notes at any time prior to the maturity date,
including at times when prevailing interest rates are relatively low. In the event that we redeem the notes prior to maturity, you may not be able to reinvest
the proceeds you receive from the redemption in a comparable security at an effective interest rate as high as the interest rate on your notes being
redeemed.
Trading in the clearing systems is subject to minimum denomination requirements.
The terms of the notes provide that notes will be issued with a minimum denomination of $2,000 and multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. It is
possible that the clearing systems may process trades that could result in amounts being held in denominations smaller than the minimum denominations. If
definitive notes are required to be issued in relation to such notes in accordance with the provisions of the relevant global notes, a holder who does not
have the minimum denomination or any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof in its account with the relevant clearing system at the relevant time
may not receive all of its involvement in the form of definitive notes unless and until its holding satisfies the minimum denomination requirement.

Use of Proceeds
We estimate that we will receive net proceeds from the offering of approximately $493.6 million, after deducting the underwriting discount and
estimated offering expenses.
We intend to use the net proceeds of the offering to repay existing indebtedness under our commercial paper program and to repay the $250.0 million
aggregate principal amount of our 5.375% senior notes when they mature on April 15, 2020.
The indebtedness under our commercial paper program had a weighted average interest rate of approximately 1.234% as of December 28, 2019, with
varying short-term maturity dates. The proceeds from this short-term commercial paper indebtedness were used to finance our acquisition of Smartrac's
Transponder (RFID Inlay) Division on February 28, 2020, for approximately 227.5 million and for working capital purposes. Certain of the underwriters
may own some of the commercial paper and, to the extent the proceeds are used to pay down such commercial paper, those underwriters may receive a
portion of the proceeds.
