Specialty paper can replace plastic labels
Aug 26 2011 Stora Enso has developed a specialty paper that will enable the packaging industry to use a renewable material as a high-resolution, colorful label for plastic injection molded containers.
In the past, this process of in-mold labeling involved placing a printed film label in the mold before injecting melted resin to create a finished container.With the new InnoMould paper produced at Stora Enso's Uetersen mill, the film label can now be replaced by a paper label.InnoMould supports the use of high-resolution visuals and any desired number of different colours, including gold and silver.
