Trying To Ease Roll Label Materials Selection
Given the wide choice of desktop printers available for self-adhesive roll-label applications, the materials selection process has become an increasingly complex task.
They will simplify the whole business of choosing and using self-adhesive labelling films, for both converter and brand manufacturer." According to the company, the self-adhesive labelling films market has become extremely complex in the light of the ever-increasing demands from brand owners for conformability over complicated container profiles and clarity, resulting in a product portfolio that embraces PP and PE for different substrates and different on-pack performance requirements.
Stoebe added: "Fasson Global Co-Ex is a high-technology co-extrusion, combining the best features of all the standard film facestocks.
They are available in gloss white and gloss transparent, topcoated and non-topcoated and offer end users exceptional clarity and print quality, plus outstanding converting and dispensing characteristics.

Silicone Release Papers - New Narrow Web Markets?
Siliconised release papers and films give the narrow-web converter the opportunity to explore a host of niches, beyond labels alone.
They really represent a simple labelling solution for a complex market." Healthy and beauty products and household chemicals, where self-adhesive labelling films are commonly used, are markets that will benefit from the properties of Fasson Global Co-Ex, particularly its engineered combination of machine direction orientation and cross-direction conformability, said the company.
Stoebe explained: "Because the film can be used on a broad spectrum of application substrates, including HDPE, PET, PE, PP and glass, as well as the 'no label' look, selecting, qualifying and specifying film label substrates can be simplified.
The economies of scale delivered by a greatly-reduced portfolio of label substrate specifications can also give a better price and performance ratio.
At just 63 micron, Fasson Global Co-Ex films deliver more labels per reel, high production yield and simplified and reduced inventory for the label converter." For the end user, specifying a Fasson Global Co-Ex film across the whole range of a new product's packaging can significantly improve the speed with which that product can be brought to market.
Label dispensing is accurate and smooth, thanks to the optimal stiffness and flexibility of the co-extrusion, he added.
Fasson Global Co-Ex is available from Avery Dennison throughout the world to the many international companies that understand the value of maintaining high global packaging standards for their valuable brands, believes Avery Dennison.
Available with standard Fasson label adhesives and release liners, Fasson Global Co-Ex films are available ex-stock from Avery Dennison Roll Materials Europe and samples and technical data sheets are available on request via Fasson sales representatives or from the company's website.
