PVC SHRINK LABELS AND ROLLS
Shrink-sleeve is a type of label stock that can be made of PVC, PET, etc. When heat
is applied to this material, it shrinks tightly
(upto 60% width wise and 2-5% height wise ) over whatever it is covering. It offers
highly graphic decoration and provides lots of
space for information because of its 360-degree coverage. It is the most flexible
technology for shaped containers especially in the
beverages, packaged drinking water and pharmaceutical industry.
