In-mold labels (IML) provide a durable and integrated solution for labeling plastic containers and products during the molding process.
IML solutions ensure that your labels are long-lasting, resistant to environmental factors, and perfectly suited for demanding supply chain operations.
In-mold labels (IML) are integrated directly into plastic products during the molding process, ensuring exceptional durability and resistance to environmental factors. These labels are typically pre-printed and can include advanced features such as barcodes and RFID technology for enhanced tracking and identification. The materials used in IML, such as polypropylene for static cling and synthetic paper for vacuum labels, are carefully selected to match the application’s specific needs
The fusion of labels during the molding process ensures long-term performance, with labels that remain intact and legible throughout the product’s lifecycle. This makes IML an ideal solution for industries requiring reliable, durable labeling.
In-mold labels provide a seamless and sustainable labeling option, reducing the need for post-production labeling and ensuring that labels stay intact throughout the product’s lifecycle. With their ability to integrate complex designs and advanced tracking technologies, IML offers a robust solution for a wide range of inventories and applications.
In-mold labeling (IML) integrates labels into plastic products during the molding process, creating a durable, long-lasting bond that enhances both aesthetics and functionality. This process eliminates the need for post-production labeling, offering a seamless finish that resists wear and tear. IML can be customized with vibrant colors, intricate designs, and even RFID technology for advanced tracking.
Options within IML include static cling labels for temporary use, vacuum labels for a flawless finish, and post-injection labels for additional flexibility and durability in various applications. Additionally, IML reduces waste by integrating the label into the product itself, which enhances sustainability. With the capability to withstand harsh environments, IML is ideal for industries requiring robust and reliable labels.
Static cling labels adhere to surfaces without the need for adhesives, relying solely on static electricity. These labels are easily removable and repositionable, making them ideal for temporary applications where flexibility is key.
Commonly used on smooth surfaces such as glass or plastic, static cling labels are perfect for promotional stickers or temporary signage. Their non-permanent nature allows for quick changes without leaving residue, offering a convenient solution.
Vacuum labels are applied during the molding process using a vacuum mechanism that ensures a precise and tight bond between the label and the molded part, without requiring adhesives. This method creates a flawless finish, often used when appearance and durability are critical.
The vacuum application process ensures that the label conforms perfectly to the product’s contours, resulting in a high-quality, integrated label that enhances the product’s look and function.
Post-injection labels are applied immediately after the molding process while the product is still warm, using heat or pressure to bond the label to the molded part. This method offers the durability of in-mold labels but with flexibility in design and placement.
Post-injection labels are particularly suitable for industrial components or products that require high resistance to wear and environmental factors. This approach ensures the label becomes a permanent part of the product.
