IML

Objective.

- To replace present labeling method with efficient IML process.

- To prevent two stage operation of labeling.

- To develop integrated labeling structure with high performance adhesive.

Present Labeling Process

A pressure sensitive adhesive is a tacky substance applied to label that adheres to the bottle surface when light pressure is applied.

Our Route

In-Mold Labeling is a process for labeling or decorating a plastic object while the object is being formed in the mold.

Comparison

  • Conventional Labels

    Flagging

    Low Scratch Resistance

    Release Liner Required

     

  • Our IML Labels

    No Flagging.

    Better look

    Release Liner Not Required

    Offer more strength to bottle

TYPES OF PET BLOW MOLDING PROCESS

  • Single Stage Blow molding (ISBM)

    Molten polymer is fed into a hot runner

    forms the internal shape of the Preform

    Mold opens & Preform clamped into the hollow, chilled blow mold

    compressed air fed into the Preform, which inflates it to the finished article shape

  • Mighty

    Ready Preform placed to preheating chamber

    Preheating at 120 – 150 degree C

    Mold opens & Preform clamped into the hollow, chilled blow mold

    Compressed air fed into the Preform, which inflates it to the finished article shape

ISBM PET IML DEVLOPED WITH VITRAG PLASTIC INDUSTRIES

MATERIAL AVILABLE IN PET IML

- PAPER

- HYDROPHOBIC PAPER

- ANTI-MICROBIAL COATED PAPER

- METALIC PAPER

- STREACHABLE PAPER

- FILM

* FSP can supply printed material as well base material

Environmental Benefits

Pressure Sensitive Label

- No. of tree cut for making 1Ton of paper = 17 trees.

- Kg of oxygen produced by 17 trees in a year = 2006 kgs

- Kg of carbon dioxide absorbed by 17 trees in a year = 1986 kgs.

- For making 10,00,000 bottles we need 2 tones of liner

- Oxygen loss will be 0.02 grams behind each label

- Carbon generated behind each label =0.01 grams

Commercial Benefits

Saving Approx

- From Paper PSA label to Paper IML =7% Saving on Material

- From Filmic PSA label to film IML =10 % Saving on material

- From Metallic Paper to Metallic Paper IML =10% saving .

- Labeling operation saving .
