Inmould Labelling

DW Plastics are worldleaders in in-mould labelling for crates.

INMOULD LABELS

  • Inhouse development of labels
  • Inks on PE foil
  • Varnish top coat

INJECTION MOULDING PROCESS

  • The inmould labels are put in the robot in piles
  • The robot takes the labels out of the pile 1 by 1 in order to place all 4 at the same time in the mould
  • Electrostatic charging adheres the labels to the mould
  • The head of the robot removes itself from the mould and the mould closes
  • The normal injection moulding cycle begins:
    • The liquefied synthetic material is injected into the mould
    • The warm material at the back of the label ensures good adhesion
    • After injection, a cooling period allows the material to solidify
    • The mould opens and ejects the crate
  • The result is a crate with inmould label
ADVANTAGES:

  • High-gloss
  • Photographic reproduction
  • Larger printing surface vs. screen printing
  • Shorter production time
  • Metalised-look labels (silver, gold)
