PET for Sleeves
At Liveo Research, we produce an optimal selection of PET-G films for sleeves up to ultra-high shrinkage. These films are distinguished by outstanding optical properties, excellent layflat and consistent transversal shrinkage. They can be printed using flexographic, rotogravure, rotary-offset and digital printing processes.
All PET-G shrink films are characterised by the following features:
- Up to 79% TD shrinkage
- Ideally suited for glass and thin-walled plastic containers
- MD shrinkage behaviour provides potential material savings
- No coating, printable on both sites
- Excellent shrink finish control in hot air and steam tunnes
- Uniform shrink finish even at critical areas and on demanding bottle shapes due to flat shrink characteristic
- Lowest specific gravity for full PET-G sleeves
- High clarity assured
- Superb thickness distribution
Our customers consistently enjoy the shortest lead times, fastest responses and strongest customer care available – wherever you are in the world!
Sleeves can be used on a variety of products on glass, plastic and & metal containers as a tamper evident seal, promotional sleeve or multipack, for dairy products, beverages (juices, soft-, energy-, flavoured alcoholic & non alcoholic drinks), food, health & beauty, household, confectionery, and home and garden products.
High shrink label film
Liveo offers its T11 when shrink labelers need an high shrink, transparent clear PETG label for easy and complex container shapes, especially if glass or PET bottles have to be sleeved.
- High shrink properties
- Late shrink start provides excellent shrink control in the tunnel
- Optimized MD shrink/expansion profile
- Ideally suited for glass and PET containers
- Thickness range: 35-75µm (glossy/glossy) surface finish
- Consistent gauge accross the web increases production output and efficiency and reduces lost production time and waste.
- Increased impact strength (ideal for glass bottles)
- Available as version with optical brightener (sleeve detection)
High shrink label film
Liveo offers its T21G when shrink labelers need an high shrink, transparent clear PETG label for a complex container shape, in particular thin-walled HDPE containers.
- High shrink properties
- Early shrink start enables energy savings
- Optimized MD shrink/expansion profile
- Ideally suited for very thin-walled plastic containers
- Thickness range: 38-65µm (glossy/glossy) surface finish
- Consistent gauge increases production output and efficiency and reduces lost production time and waste.
- Available as version with optical brightener (sleeve detection)
Ultra-high shrink label film
Liveo offers its T12 when shrink labelers need an ultra-high shrink, transparent clear PETG label for easy and complex container shapes, if glass, PET and thin walled HDPE bottles have to be sleeved.
- Ultra-high shrink properties
- Medium shrink start supports the perfect balance between process control and energy savings
- Optimized MD shrink/expansion profile
- Ideally suited for glass, PET and thin walled HDPE containers
- Thickness range: 35-65µm (glossy/glossy) surface finish
- Consistent gauge accross the web increases production output and efficiency and reduces lost production time and waste.
- Increased impact strength (ideal for glass bottles)
- Available as version with optical brightener (sleeve detection)
