DWS Printing Introduces Eco-Friendly Label Paper

“Craft brewers are committed to make sure their packaging has minimal impact on the environment and our Legacy Label™ gives them a new way to take that commitment to the next level,” says DWS partner, Andy Staib. “While certain brewers have successfully ‘greened’ their packaging by using post-consumer content in their six-packs and corrugated, labels have traditionally been made using only virgin fiber. We are bringing an alternative option to the table—a label paper that is made from 100 percent post-consumer recycled fiber and is still water resistant.”

Legacy Label™ is an uncoated label paper that provides a more natural look and feel than conventional gloss coated labels, while its bright whiteness enables accurate color representation on press.
