Linerless labels do away with the silicone-coated liner material – and deliver convincing economic and ecological benefits. From logistics and retail to the food industry, the technology is already well established.
The Technology
What are linerless labels?
Linerless labels work without any liner material. That makes them around 40 % thinner – and fits up to 40 % more labels on a roll. This significantly increases efficiency in storage, transport and day-to-day operations:
- →Less waste – no liner material that needs to be disposed of
- →More labels per roll – reduces printer changeover intervals
- →Lower transport costs – lighter rolls save space and weight
- →Higher productivity – less downtime during labelling
- →More workplace safety – no slippery liner material on the floor
Sustainability
Less waste, a smaller CO₂ footprint
As the liner material is eliminated, the consumption of paper and silicone drops – and with it the CO₂ footprint of the entire labelling process: up to 40 % less material consumption, no liner disposal and lower emissions thanks to more compact transport and storage capacities.
With linerless labels you make a measurable contribution to environmental protection – and position your brand as a responsible company.
Areas of Application
One roll, many applications
Thanks to variable printing, different label sizes can be produced flexibly from a single roll – ideal for companies with varying product sizes:
- →Food industry:packaging, price labelling and freshness labels
- →Logistics & shipping:efficient, sustainable shipping labels
- →Trade & retail:flexible price labelling and promotions
- →Pharmaceutical industry:residue-free labelling for the highest hygiene standards
