Label Films

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.

Applications: Label films and packaging
Labels may be inserted into injection mould prior to injection and fuse with the finished product. Wrap around bottled water and carbonated drinks may have a clear printed label wrapped around it. Spot patch labels may be wet glued to plastic or glass bottles.

Label films add sparkle to packaging of beverages, CD, DVD, and other 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.
