The vast and diverse food sector requires extremely precise and varied labeling strategies. The main challenges are twofold: on one hand, ensuring resistance to temperature changes and environmental conditions, and on the other, offering an eye-catching design that enhances the product. The absolute priority, however, is food safety.
Where required, our food labels can be designed for direct and indirect contact with food, as is the case with labels applied directly onto fruit skin. In fact, we guarantee maximum safety in compliance with regulatory limits.
Glass preservation is widely used for products such as tomato sauce, jams, marmalades, yogurt, and honey, but the labeling processes present unique challenges. Application conditions vary drastically, ranging from artisanal to industrial production, with labels applied to containers that may be hot, cold, perfectly dry, or exposed to condensation.
To ensure maximum adhesion and durability in every scenario, selecting the appropriate material and printing technique is essential. Our ideal solutions include coated papers (glossy or matte) or papers with natural finishes (laid and embossed). These options not only offer a superior design appearance but also ensure that the label maintains its aesthetic and adhesive performance intact, regardless of storage conditions and production methodology.
Our portfolio also includes bio-based materials, which are films obtained from renewable and compostable raw materials.
For foods stored in glass bottles, such as oil, vinegar, and sauces, we recommend using durable and, above all, stain-resistant materials, such as polypropylene (white or transparent) and special papers. This choice is crucial to prevent damage to the label in case of accidental leakage of the contents during use by the final consumer. In this case as well, the label can be enhanced with varnishes and finishes of all kinds.
In the fruit and vegetable sector, labeling requires a perfect balance between functionality, food safety, and application speed. Our adhesive solutions are specifically designed to withstand the moisture and handling typical of the supply chain, ensuring compliance with regulations on direct food contact.
Soft drinks and premium water bottles—such as those used in restaurants—require labels that guarantee maximum resistance to water and moisture, especially when stored in refrigerated environments or in ice. Our solutions are mainly based on plastic materials, ideal for durability, available in transparent, white, or silver finishes. Alternatively, we offer special papers treated to resist moisture and limited contact with ice. For a luxury look or a “no-label” effect, transparent options are available. We also address environmental needs with water-soluble labels, which dissolve completely in water to facilitate recycling, and with sustainable solutions made from bio-based materials, eco-friendly adhesives, and water-based inks. In addition to the functional and environmental aspects, we integrate security elements, such as labels that serve as a warranty seal, and Smart features through the use of QR Codes that link to digital informational, promotional, or traceability content, connecting the physical product to the digital world.
