In-mold/YUPO® for in-mold |
|
|
|
The in-mold process involves
simultaneously molding a label when manufacturing
a container. YUPO® is highly durable
and has outstanding printability, and is a recyclable
material for in-mold labels for containers that
assimilates these merits. |

- Ideal for polypropylene and polyethylene (HD and
LLD) containers. The labels do not need to be bonded
and can be reproduced at once.
- Provides sharp and high-definition printing. Both
gravure and offset printing are possible.
- Almost no deformation after molding. Good for
stacking since it finishes beautifully.
- Labels adhere to the entire surface, and there
is no protrusions at the edges, so labels are not
prone to peeling off.
- Outstanding in saving labor and cost due to a
lack of need for embellishment after molding.
- Container strength is increased by labeling, enabling
the coating weight to be reduced.
- Improves appearance by integrating with the bottle.
- Can be recycled with the bottle.

In-mold labels have high performance
requirements, such as water resistance and resistance
to contents, so please consult with each ink manufacturer
in compliance with your application. |

The backside of ITE105, IDS80/100 and
IHC75 is a heat-sealed layer, and is prone to static,
so it is necessary to take sufficient measures to eliminate
the build-up of static electricity.
Static electricity control measures: control humidity,
use electricity removal equipment, etc.
Although these grades have a track record in UV offset,
UV Letterpress, gravure (flexo), etc., please contact
us for details. |
