Label
films for packaging are based on plastic polymers and their blends. They
are used to label a number of products offering high clarity images,
scuff resilience and water resistance.
Label films for packaging are resistant to mould and withstand retail
display. High definition graphics stand out on the shelf and increase
the perception of value. They have superior tensile strength and thermal
stability. Available in white, opaque and transparent. Design
possibilities include no look labels and reverse printed
graphics that may be viewed through the container.
Labels are everywhere for displaying the contents of everything and
helping to find a particular product in the supermarket. In fact, it is
hard to imagine a world without them. The label is what makes a product
stand out in a crowd, giving its unmistakable appearance and visual
appeal.
Materials Used
Polystyrene Polystyrene label films provide
an excellent print surface with consistent lay flat characteristics
making it ideal for label printers. They add UV protection increasing
the product shelf life.
Polypropylene Polypropylene label films offer
improved slip and anti-static properties. They are non heat-sealable,
with high gloss.
Polyester Polyester label films are clear and
white transparent tamper evident films. They are thermally stable and
flexible enough to suit various applications.

food items. They are widely used in electronic industry, agriculture
industry, and pharmaceutical industry. They are used for low-shrink and
non-shrink roll-fed label applications.
