Metallic IML

Getting the customer's attention, that's what packaging is all about. Thanks to our Metallic IML options, we offer new and exciting ways to do this.

• To attract customer attention to products on shelf.
• To preserve a metallic look, when changing from metal packaging to plastics.
• To give your product a very high-end quality look.

The use of metallic labels in IML (in-mold-labeling) is a growing trend that reaches practically all consumer sectors, since with its use you can get a premium finish that will allow you to better differentiate from your competitors. Nevertheless, finish effects are not the only advantage that metallic labels present. Among many, we can name the following:

• Long-lasting quality: The hardness provided by the metal makes the shapes more durable. A highly-valued feature for those shapes with a long-lasting life such as bins or plastic crates and drawers.
• Price: Part manufacturing costs through IML-injection are significantly lower than directly applying metal layers.
• Rust: IML metallic labels do not present rust issues.
• Part physical integrity: Common bumps and gaps between metal thin layers, both are avoided by using IML metallic labels.

In-mold labelling (IML process) is the innovative labelling technology for plastic packaging. The procedure is sophisticated: pre-printed labels are placed in the injection moulding machine. This means that the labelling process takes place during the packaging production process, not afterwards. So, there is no need for a separate adhesive film because: when the liquid plastic is injected, the labels bind directly with the polymer melt. After cooling the label forms an inseparable unit with the packaging. Through this processing technology we create a recyclable single-material packaging – an important factor and one which is not to be underestimated.
