LED technology first entered the UV curing world in 2002 and has steadily gained traction across a wide range of printing, coating, and adhesive applications.

Labels continue to play a major role in business-to-consumer and business-to-business commerce, building brands, shipping, keeping track of inventory and, today, even talking to consumers.

A new PE label, manufactured exclusively from recycled polyethylene, is thought to be the first of its kind worldwide. It was jointly developed in Germany by the printer schäfer-etiketten and the self-adhesive materials specialist HERMA, with the aid of the PE film experts of POLIFILM.

While creative labeling through colors, shapes, decorative foil or unique typography can help a brand pop off a shelf, they can also help communicate a brand’s story as it works to capture a consumer’s attention.

Fortis Solutions Group LLC announces the acquisition of Label Technology Inc., an award-winning printer of flexible packaging, stand-up pouches, and pressure sensitive labels.

Sustainability and recyclability: What was once a trend in the packaging industry is now a necessity. Consumers are demanding it, brands are establishing ambitious goals and it’s up to the suppliers, equipment manufacturers and everyone else to work together in achieving it all.
