PICOFILM WPr-57 gloss LG1

Sustainable, white gloss FACESTOCK film based on 30 % PCR PET for the production of product labels in the fields of durables, A4 & cut size, oil & chemicals industry, home & personal care and beverage.

7066 PICOFILM WPr-57 gloss LG1 is a white 57 µm PET facestock film, with the front side glossy coated for the printing of variable information using laser or thermal transfer. The reverse side is treated.

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.

In addition to a better CO2 balance, this film’s process characteristics are similar to standard PET films. No change to the processes is necessary.

End customers get a durable, weather- and chemical-resistant product with high scratch resistance.
