The new labeling products to be displayed have been designed keeping the latest trends such as sustainability, transparency, premium finish substrates and personalization in mind. Here is the list of products.
Films for Repositionable & Removable label applications
These are polypropylene based both side coated P.S labelstock films which offer excellent print receptivity with diverse ink systems. The films do not leave stains on the container if the labels need to be removed or repositioned. Designed in sync with sustainability initiatives, these down gauged films are available across all appearance varieties.
Matte Coated P.S Labelstock Films
These films have a unique top coating, which is compatible with 8 different kinds of print media, namely UV flexo, Water flexo, Thermal Transfer, Letterpress, Screen, HP Indigo, UV Inkjet and UV Offset. These films go in 65 & 75 microns when used as P.S labelstock material and in thicker microns (up to 500 micron) for non-pressure sensitive applications. They are mostly used in labeling of high-end personal care products, pharmaceuticals and drum labeling.
