Linerless Labels: An Evolving Technology
As the pressure-sensitive label industry turns its attention to growing concerns about its high inherent waste, linerless label technology is getting increased consideration.
Evolving technology
Linerless has a lot of advantages but, unfortunately it has been limited in terms of label application, so whoever wanted to convert to linerless needed to change their labeling equipment. In addition, up until two years ago, linerless labels were limited to a certain size and shape. Today, this technology has evolved and sizes as well as label shapes are no longer a constraint. Two years ago, an offline linerless adaptor was introduced to the market which was retrofitted to existing p-s labeling equipment. This eliminates the shape and size constraint, as well as the capital investment needed to purchase a brand new linerless labeler. This new technology advancement opens the doors to new linerless applications.
