# Roller Label Types
PET / PP Adhesive Foil Labels:
These are highly durable labels intended for mass produced products. The foil foundation enables high saturation colour printing and a wide range of finishing procedures.
High-quality Paper Labels:
Passat Press offers an extensive list of adhesive paper options. Smooth or structured, the paper used in label manufacturing gives products a high-class appearance. The paper label is a classic solution which is highly popular in the food, wine, and beverage industries.
Thermal Transfer Labels:
These labels allow clients to print individual numeration on every label using a thermal-transfer printer. Thermal-transfer labels can be made of a variety of strong materials and can be delivered printed, finished, or blank, depending on customer demand
Multi-layer Labels:
The printing equipment at Passat Press offers clients the option of a multilayer label featuring single or full-colour print on each label side (including on the glue layer). This is a perfect solution for the food and cosmetics industry, where extensive product content descriptions are often required.
Metal-effect Foil Labels:
These labels are printed on a highly durable material which is virtually indistinguishable from a genuine metal surface. There is a range of metal effects available on demand. The visual appearance of the metal-effect label is well suited for high-quality consumer products.
# Label for Automatic Application
Roller labels allow high-speed automatic application. That indispensable quality makes roller labels a printing product of choice of manufacturers and retailers who require large quantities of labels to be applied very quickly and efficiently on their automated production and assembly lines. These labels are easy to transport and store. Passat Press printing-house can produce and deliver roller labels very quickly to clients in the EU and beyond.
# Temperature Resistant Labels
The high-quality PET / PP foils used in label printing at Passat Press are highly resistant to temperature. The temperature spectrum covered by the labels ranges from extreme cold to scorching heat. That quality of the advanced foundation materials is mirrored by the inks and the obligatory protective coatings. Due to their high temperature resistance, the labels manufactured at Passat Press can endure for years even in the most hostile environmental conditions.
# Labels Delivered on Paper Sheets
In addition to high-volume roller label manufacture, Passat Press offers a solution for customers seeking classic sheet-printed labels. Usually, those labels are intended for boutique products of very high quality and limited quantities. Sheetfed label printing is incredibly efficient when projects include multiple label types each of which to be printed in low or medium numbers. Sheetfed label printing also compatible with a wide range of finishing solutions.
# Finishing Solutions
Printing-house Passat Press is equipped with a versatile production line for a range of finishing procedures. These finishing solutions include:
Lamination: This finishing procedure entails the application of a transparent protective layer which adds a silky-smooth or a high-gloss finish to the printed artwork (Custom lamination styles are also available on demand). In addition to improving visual appearance, lamination gives the label extra rigidity and protection. The protective lamination layer is highly durable. It is thermally applied to permanently seal the foundation material and the ink from the environment.
Embossing: This is a process whereby texture is added to the surface of the labels. In general, texture is used to emphasize specific elements of the design. Nevertheless, embossed symbols can also serve as braille inscriptions and warning signs. The embossing effect is achieved using a matrix and a stamping press – a completely automated process at Passat Press.
Metal Effect: The aim of this process, also known as high-temperature foil stamping, is to visually replicate the lustre of a particular metal. This effect is achieved via a heated cliché, and a thermal-transfer metallic foil. Popular metal effects include gold, silver, copper, and bronze. Lustre variants “polished” and “crude” are available for each metal. Ultra-bright fluorescent colour and a variety of holograms are also available on demand.
Selective UV Varnish: This is a transparent high-gloss coating, which accentuates certain visual components of the label design. The selective, or partial, UV varnish covers only specially selected elements of the artwork. That is a significant departure from lamination, which covers the entire label. There are two variants of selective UV varnish – a flat 2D coating and a volumetric 3D coating – both perfectly suitable for sophisticated design concepts.
