Digital printing labels and sealing labels for tubular bags
Uneven surfaces are a tough challenge for labels
The usage scenario: product labels with a wide range of varieties, plus a sealing label that is suitable for multiple re-closure.
Tubular bag packaging is used for all kinds of products with a non-uniform surface, for example, sweets, chocolate bars, biscuits, wholemeal bread, sliced sausage, pasta, cheese and many more foodstuffs.
Tubular bag packaging consists of an airtight composite film. Labels are ideally suited for displaying product information.
The labels are dispensed by machine, which is a particular challenge in itself due to the uneven surfaces of the tubular bags and especially at high packaging speeds. The print image varies greatly, as different product variants are often packed on the same packaging line with the same tubular bag.
The label is not only a source of ‘technical’ product information such as the date of manufacture and batch number, it is often a ‘colourful’ advertising medium for brands and product names, with pictures of usage scenarios.
In addition to the product label, a sealing label that can be opened quickly and closed securely after a portion has been removed is often required.

Digital print labels with powerful adhesion on uneven surfaces
The adhesive materials used comply with all food regulations. The adhesive is certified for BfR and FDA approval and has ISEGA approval for fatty foods.
It also has a very strong tack, so the label adheres securely to the uneven surface even at high labelling speeds in the packaging line
Sealing labels for tubular bags can be re-sealed again and again
A transparent, glossy PP film was selected for sealing labels for tubular bags since it clings well to the uneven surfaces. It’s easy and safe to open and can be re-sealed several times, so the product remains fresh even after opening. The printing on the sealing labels is done in classic printing processes.
