Le Mac linerless self-adhesive labelling system

Le Mac is a supplier of a linerless labelling system that is self-adhesive for trays of meats, ready meals, salads, etc. Linerless labels are an environmentally friendly innovation as they do not use backing liner like traditional labels, which cannot be recycled and does not decompose in landfill.

The system is fully automatic and is said to deliver significant efficiency gains over traditional pressure-sensitive labelling machines or hand-application of carton sleeves. It works with heavy-gauge cardboard, film or paper labels in eight formats (top, top and side, top and two sides, full-wrap, C-wrap, D-wrap, skin packs and slide sleeves). Suitable for stretch-wrap trays, top-seal trays and vacuum skin packs with protrusions, it can be run on the same machine without change parts.

Le Mac also offers digitally printed labels for small lot variants and flexographically printed labels for longer runs. The company can print a range of effects to convey different levels of branding, from generic to premium, and on the digital press, designs can be changed easily without needing to purchase extra plates.
