BOPP Films Reduce Pack Weight and Waste

Published: March 15, 2011

WIGTON, UK – Innovia Films, a producer of speciality BOPP and cellulose substrates for a variety of labelling techniques, has launched a new range of films suitable for linerless label applications, Rayoface NB. Working in partnership with a  leading machine and technology supplier, Ravenwood Packaging Ltd., the new Rayoface  NB films, have been developed for use on Ravenwood’s range of Nobac linerless label applicators.

Rayoface NB films are available in both white and transparent grades and in thicknesses of 92µm (suitable for replacing carton board sleeves) and 60µm (for conventional pressure-sensitive and wraparound label replacement). When converted into linerless labels, Rayoface NB films can be used by retailers on lidded food trays for meat and fish product packs. As the label is applied directly to the pack, a reduction of over 30% to the labelling waste and weight can be achieved.

Based in Bury St. Edmunds, Suffolk, Ravenwood Packaging Ltd. sells and services a range of Nobac linerless labelling systems and associated packaging machinery.
