Sihl has launched the first inkjet film based on 90% Post Consumer Recycled (PCR) BOPET. It offers identical product benefits to its non-PCR counterpart and is ideally suited for razor-sharp product labels in print on demand. In addition to the resource-saving grades with reduced weight, this is another step towards a ‘green’ range.
7054 PICOFILM CPr-50 gloss IHG1 is a transparent face stock film for the production of product labels. The front side has a glossy coating for variable information printing with water-based inkjet, and is suitable for both dye and pigment inks. The product has the same mechanical properties, so it is easy to process – just like the non-PCR grades (7858/7852) – while offering identical benefits: fast drying, with high colour brilliance, sharp-edged prints and good water resistance. The total weight of this film has also been reduced. This means more labels per roll and thus higher productivity.
Sihl facestock coatings combined with print-on-demand printing technology, making it easier and more affordable to produce exactly the amount of labels needed while meeting customers’ personalisation requirements. This reduces waste and CO2 emissions enormously.
