Shrink labelling for contoured bottles

Polysack’s Polyphane Fit shrink labelling has been developed especially for contoured bottles.

Polyphane Fit lets beverage manufacturers quickly switch from conventional wraparound labelling to shrink labelling on the same machine. Without changing equipment, manufacturers can upgrade the look of their existing products into a more contoured and appealing look. In addition, the production line conversion process requires fewer steps than sleeve shrinkage, making it more cost effective.

With up to 50% shrinkage, Polyphane Fit has a high wraparound-labelling shrink rate and it can wrap up to 60,000 bottles/h.

A material that can be used for either steam or hot air shrinking, Polyphane Fit can also be applied with all seaming methods – hot melt glue, UV glue, ultra-sonic welding and laser welding. Furthermore, it easily adapts to all types of printing methods – flexography, rotogravure, offset and digital printing.

Polyphane Fit is an energy saver because the lower temperature of its production process entails lower energy consumption. Since it is a chloride-free material with a lower density level than water, it also enables labels and containers to easily separate during the recycling process.
