Certified, carefree direct contact labels
When the self-adhesive label has to be affixed directly on food, such as the skin of a banana or a melon, a self-adhesive label is required whose components, from the adhesive to the top coating, are all certified to avoid any migration of substances present in the label into the food. The same type of solution is also to be used in the presence of packages with small holes that may therefore have direct contact with the food, such as a package of strawberries.

Choose the look of your label
Depending on the target audience you want to hit, the type of label material may vary from solutions with coated or natural paper faces, up to standard, cavitated or metallic polypropylene. The label affixed on the package can be given different effects depending on whether the type of food packaging should recall, for example, selected ingredients or if you want to place the product in a medium-high price range. The solution with rubber-based adhesives is also widely used, which allow excellent performance even in the most critical conditions such as the irregularity of the surface of the packaging (eg cardboard packaging) and the acrylic adhesive with PET liner for a perfect "no-label" look.

European Standards and ISEGA Certifications
Our range of food materials complies with the European regulation EU 10/2011,relating to all components of a multi-layer film label (which is considered part of food packaging) and complies with norm EC 1935/2004, which concerns the use of packaging that does not contaminate food products. The range also includes ISEGA-certified adhesives both for dry and wet but non-fatty foods (such as potato chips or fruit packs) and dry, wet and fatty foods, with a different reduction factor depending on the type of application required (such as cheese crust labelling).
