Production of linerless rolls
Our goal is to reduce the use of cellulose and produce economically and environmentally sustainable labeling solutions. To achieve this, we offer Linerless Technological Solutions for industry and large-scale distribution, with the use of Linerless rolls in thermal paper, thermal polypropylene and for thermal transfer printing.
How is a label made?
The label usually consists of three layers:
- 1. the front (the actual label to be applied)
- 2. the sticker
- 3. the liner (or support), i.e. the part that is eliminated when the label is peeled off.
Usually, the liner is made of silicone paper, a waste to be disposed of in a special waste regime.
Linerless is a label without a liner, therefore made up only of:
- 1. front
- 2. sticker
Our advantages
T-Trade specializes in the production of linerless rolls in thermal paper or thermal polypropylene and for thermal transfer, with adhesives for every need, the result of a journey that began several years ago with the development, patent and production of linerless printers for the world of large-scale distribution and the world of Industry.
Features of Linerless rolls
T-Trade Linerless rolls meet all labeling and weighing/labeling needs both in large-scale distribution and in industry, responding to increasingly strong needs related to eco-sustainability but also to the cost-effectiveness of the labeling process.
In fact, the linerless roll allows you to have a continuous reel, from which you can obtain labels of different formats according to needs: the length of the labels is changed “on site” and “on demand”, using a single mother reel format.
The distinctive pluses of Linerless thermal paper rolls
Ecological goals:
- 0 quantity of silicone waste to be disposed of in a special waste regime;
- -50% of paper used (since the production of silicone paper for the liner is not necessary), therefore less depletion of natural resources;
- reduction of the environmental impact in terms of CO2 emissions and use of process water (due to the reduced need for production of liner paper rolls);
- moreover, using the BOPP linerless rolls, the use of paper is reduced by 100% with the advantages described above doubled;
- reduction of pollution thanks to the reduction of rolls of labels handled by transport (a linerless roll contains many more meters of raw material than a roll of standard die-cut labels).
Economic goals:
- elimination of the disposal costs of the silicone paper support;
- elimination of the costs of die-cut labels;
- possibility of obtaining labels of different formats from a single parent reel;
- use of continuous reels with diameter up to 300 mm. (900 linear metres), tripling operations;
- reduction of 2/3 of the work time dedicated to label roll change;
- elimination of label obsolescence costs due to format and/or technology changes.
