Banding material

Our bands are made from a variety of materials and are available in widths between 15 mm and 100 mm. Bands made from brown or white paper are particularly eco-friendly. Film bands are made from high-quality raw materials which guarantee recyclability. Our paper and film bands are perfect promotion, image and information carriers. They can be printed in advance with up to twelve non-migrating colors, or they can be single-color printed during banding. Bands are also extremely user-friendly and can be opened easily by hand. And bands are tough: they support up to 30 kg and can be deep-frozen, boiled, baked or microwaved.

Here, too, we are in constant contact with our suppliers, are constantly testing new materials and are endeavoring to be able to offer the first banding films made of PCR material as soon as possible. The biggest challenges at present are the poor quality of films with PCR content and the poor availability of high-quality PCR material on the market.
