PICOFILM SPr-80 gloss IHG1

Sustainable, silver FACESTOCK film based on 90 % PCR PET for the production of product labels in the fields of beverages, home & personal care.

PICOFILM SPr-80 gloss IHG1 is a silver approx. 80 µm PET facestock film, with a gloss coating on the front side for the printing of variable information using water-based inkjet printers and with the rear side untreated. Sihl FACESTOCK coatings combined with print-on-demand printing technology make it easier and more affordable to produce exactly the amount of labels needed while meeting customers’ personalisation requirements. This reduces waste and CO2 emissions enormously.

Self-adhesive coaters benefit from process characteristics which are similar to standard PET films and from the versatility: This film is suitable for both dye and pigment inks. No change to the processes is necessary. End customers get a fast-drying, easy-to-process product with high colour brilliance, sharply contoured printouts and good water resistance.
