The company says that it opens up a number of opportunities, as well as supporting a sustainable recycling process. Its high elastic- ity, along with stretchable inks specifically devel- oped for this application, allows individual designs, including adaptation to unusually-shaped contain- ers. Its material stretch of up to 54% enables it to cope with bottles with variations in diameter of up to 35%, as well as squeezable bottles. Its capacity for reverse print- ing protects the bottle’s graphics from scuffing; it does not require glueing; enables clean separa- tion from PET for ease of recycling; the material can itself be recycled; requires no shrink tunnel; and uses little energy in production. CCL further claims that the Triple S system requires only half as much mate- rial as comparable shrink sleeves. www.cclbeverage.com Low pressure, high output Krones AG will be showcasing its full range of corporate capabilities for beverage filling and packaging technology.
