IML labeling is a revolutionary new system for customising plastic packaging – a method that stands out for the way it successfully solves labelling problems, with a clean, fresh look and total quality, as the label is perfectly integrated into the product pack itself.

When starting up an IML project it is important to not only inform the label suppliers about the final objective of the project, but also the other partners that are involved, such as the process machine, mould and automation partners. Exchanging the production parameters between all partners helps you to make each IML project a success!

The labels are made from PP film which is an excellent medium for high resolution and photo-realistic image reproduction. Labels could be chosen between matt or high-gloss, partially-transparent or fully printed, smooth or textured surfaces; it is also possible to fully or partially cover the pack.

The in-mold labels follow the contour of the molded part and may also extend over several sides of the container. Depending on the foil structure, these large-area labels can also act as a barrier layer that increases the durability of the contents of the package.
