Wet-strength labels

M-real Consumer Packaging launched two wet-strength label papers for returnable beer and beverage bottles.

Nov 2, 2008

Simcastor Label WS is a supercalendered label; and Simcastor Label WSE is a linen-embossed label for the beer and beverage market. Labels are suitable for glass or PET bottles that are returned for recycling because the labels can be removed in one piece in an alkaline washing process. Suitable for printing by sheet-fed offset, gravure, or flexo. The reverse-side treatment allows for easy gluing and curl control. Available in weights of 70, 75, and 80 g/m2.
