Less Microns – More Sustainability
Resource conservation is one of the core issues when it comes to eco-friendly production. This year, we are launching a revolutionary slimming drive to reduce the actual amount of waste generated when applying finishes to labels and print products. Our optimised slim surface decorations offer you the exclusive attractive look and performance guarantee you have come to know from us whilst reducing the amount of material used.
To be more specific: The PET substrate material is going to be reduced from 12 µm to 6 µm! This allows us to help you not only reduce the total amount of plastic waste in your production but also achieve cost advantages: Thanks to the reduced thickness, each roll can hold more running meters of usable decoration. This means more time for applying the finishing touch and less time spent replacing rolls.
10 µm Transfer Carrier
Within this business year we will start to shift all 12 µm products to 10 µm. This 16.6 % reduction in material and carbon footprint will deliver to you longer rolls, better coverage and less waste.
6 µm Transfer Carrier
For cold transfer in sheet fed and narrow web, we will offer you the option to reduce the carrier by 50% ending up in an extremely thin 6 µm film. Our KPS slim (Patent Pending) already provides you with all sustainable benefits of a slim production process for sheet fed.
