PLA Shrink Labels Meet Packagers’ Environmental and Economic Challenges

Brand managers, marketers, packagers and retailers select bio-based Gilbreth shrink labels and tamper-evident bands made from PLA as a natural choice to reinforce the “purity,” “natural,” and “close to nature” commitment and positioning of natural product and nutritional supplement brands.

“Brand marketers are responding to retailer and consumer requests for products that use sustainable packaging,” explained Theresa Sykes, product development manager at Gilbreth Packaging, a pioneer in the use of PLA shrink labels. “PLA shrink labels, made from a biodegradable corn-based resin, are preferred by industry leaders that are in the forefront of the sustainable packaging movement.”
