Are your labels as appetising as your food products?
IMEC Media Ltd manufactures a wide range of labels for food. Our expertise in the production of labels has made us the provider of choice for many companies and their products.
Depending on possible application, food labels have a broad range of demands that involve many factors. For example, where will the product be stored? At what temperature? How long will the product be shelved and how it will be shipped?
These are just some of the factors to be considered when deciding on the type of label that would best fit your products needs. We ensure every aspect of food labelling is taken into account because our clients trust us to label their products.
We are convinced that our knowledge, experience and expertise in food labelling contributes directly to the success of our client’s products. In fact, the growth of IMEC Media Ltd can only be attributed to the growth of our clients.
Our state-of-the-art manufacturing and pre-press capabilities will provide your products a first glance advantage in the supermarket. Waterproof Food & Drink Labels
Waterproof Food & Drink Labels
Waterproof film labels (PP polypropylene) and moisture resistant paper labels that have been laminated are available. Both the labels and adhesives used are waterproof. We then use digital printing and a finish that protects the ink on the label ensuring that the ink doesn’t smudge. There are different levels of waterproofing, from being resistant to a light sprinkle right up to the bottle and label being fully submerged.
Fridge and freezer proof, a similar idea being able to withstand being put in a fridge is fairly standard and doesn’t usually need a special label. That said if you expect a lot of condensation on the side a bottle you may wish to upgrade from base label. For those that need freezing or could be placed in an icebox and you want the label to remain intact and looking its best then you will want to specify this when you ask for a quote.
Tamper Evident Seals for food
Tamper evident labels for jars, boxes and cartons are available. For anything with a twisty top, these can be of the lollipop type design that breaks as someone twists the lid so making it obvious that someone has opened the container. Be warned, make sure these do actually tear otherwise its all to easy to some put them back on, this is done by ensuring a suitable material and adhesive are used and proper application of the complete label.
Other forms of tamper evidence can include the well known “void if removed” placed on the label making it impossible to remove without it being obvious to end user.
An ultra destructible label that falls apart if someone picks at the edges whilst chunks of the label remains in place.
Finally, holographic labels invisible to human eyes, but your sellers can check that your hologram is on the label as a sign of authenticity.
All of these tamper-evident labels will reduce the risk of your products being meddled with once they leave your production site. However, they are not a one-hit solution to securing your products against fraud and counterfeiting and all security labels will require procedures in place to be more effective.
Hot filling products?
To keep production lines moving labeling and hot filling in close order required. If this is the case you must inform us of this as different label adhesives will be needed.
Peel & Reseal Labels
If you would like to use the label on your fine food and drink to communicate more than just the basic information to the consumer our multi-layer Peel and Reseal, also known as Peel and Reveal, labels will help you achieve just that. You can increase your content in the same amount of space by using a Peel and reseal Label. The extra print space can be used for compliance or for marketing purposes to provide further information on the company or products you create, for example, provenance, ingredients, allergy warnings and recipes.
Ethical Labels
FSC Certified Labels
FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) and PEFC (Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification) Certified Labels.
If environmental awareness is a key part of your philosophy and marketing then you may wish to opt for our FSC and PEFC certified labels. These labels provide an ideal solution for those customers wishing to continue their recycled and/or sustainability credentials through from their product to their packaging.
The FSC accreditation is only awarded once all the participants in the label chain, from the forest through to the end user, have been certified by the FSC. Our master roll self-adhesive label manufacturer partner gained the FSC quality seal and the labels they supply are all made in an FSC approved facility.
In addition to providing food labels for large brands, we at IMEC Media Ltd are always thrilled to assist small and new businesses. Whether you want a full colour label, spot color or different shapes and sizes, we will meet all of your labelling needs at affordable prices.
