Labels for the food industry
Production of adhesive labels for every sector of the food supply chain
Producing food labels requires multidisciplinary expertise that combines material resistance, regulatory compliance, and aesthetic appeal. In an industry where traceability is a regulatory requirement and food safety is vital, we offer solutions designed to withstand any stress: from the humidity of produce aisles to the extreme temperatures of the cold chain.
Each label for indirect or direct food contact comes with migration certifications, ensuring that the brand is represented with quality without compromising the integrity of the product contained.
The diversity of food products requires the use of specific adhesive materials for each substrate. Whether flexible, rigid, or direct packaging, choosing the right substrate is the first step to ensuring effective communication and error-free logistics.
Meat and cured meat labels: traceability and direct contact
In the meat processing industry, moisture and the presence of animal fats represent the main challenges. Direct food contact labels for meat and cured meats are made with specific hot-melt or certified acrylic adhesives, capable of adhering securely even to difficult or uneven surfaces.
We provide solutions that are resistant to the washing processes and condensation typical of cutting laboratories, ensuring that batch and origin data remain perfectly legible all the way to the consumer's counter.
Dairy Labels: Efficiency and Moisture Resistance
Dairy and cheese labels must endure complex life cycles, including aging in humid environments and cold storage. For dairies, we offer synthetic polypropylene (PP) or thermally protected paper, ideal for preventing labels from deteriorating upon contact with whey or water.
A key innovation for this sector is the linerless system: labels without a silicone backing that reduce waste and optimize roll change times on automatic weighing lines.
Fruit and vegetable labels: adhesion on porous and irregular surfaces
Solutions for the fruit and vegetable sector must adapt to a wide variety of packaging, from wooden crates to plastic trays, to direct application to the peel. Labels for food and fresh produce use high-tack adhesives designed to resist peeling from porous or dusty surfaces.
Additionally, we offer shaped formats and eco-sustainable materials to enhance the freshness of agricultural products, while ensuring the durability needed for transport and display in large-scale retail outlets.
Cold and frozen food logistics
For products exposed to extreme cold, adhesive labels for frozen foods are the only guarantee against detachment. Thanks to adhesives formulated to operate down to -40°C, they maintain their hold even in the presence of surface frost.
They are ideal for the seafood and ready-to-cook industries, where the security of variable data is essential for respecting expiration dates and the cold chain.
Pasta and baked goods: heat management and resealable closures
Bakery and pasta production systems require supports capable of withstanding temperature fluctuations, especially when labeling occurs near ovens. For packaging dry pasta or biscuits, integrating resealable labels adds a crucial service to the customer, allowing the package to be resealed after the first use.
These solutions are often combined with desensitized labels to create easy-open tabs, improving the ergonomics of flexible packaging.
Honey and preserves: compliance and environmental communication
The canning industry requires special attention to aesthetics and information transparency. In addition to providing elegant, spill-resistant packaging, we support companies in managing honey's environmental labeling.
This requirement requires the inclusion of precise instructions on the disposal of individual packaging components, such as glass, metal, and plastic, harmoniously integrated into the can's design to comply with current regulations without sacrificing product marketing.
Technological support for in-house printing
In addition to pre-printed media, we provide self-printable food labels using thermal or color printers. This allows manufacturers to manage food roll labels in-house, adjusting ingredients, nutritional values, and barcodes in real time.
The combination of certified consumables and professional hardware ensures superior print quality, eliminating the risk of smudging or missed codes during quality checks.
Ensuring information integrity and regulatory compliance in the food industry is not an option, but an essential strategic asset. Our technical expertise allows us to resolve the most complex supply chain issues, transforming labeling from a simple requirement into a tool for operational efficiency and food safety. Thanks to a top-notch production facility and specialized expertise, we offer food companies the solidity of a leading partner, capable of certifying every process and guaranteeing uncompromising quality standards.
