New bubble-free labelstocks with micro-channel structure

Lintec Europe (UK) has introduced a new range of easy-to-apply labelstocks with a micro-channel structure that prevents the formation of air bubbles upon application.

The cause of this phenomenon lies in certain plastics, such as polycarbonates, which emit gasses over time and under the influence of rising temperatures, leading to the formation of blisters under the label.

The labelstock is particularly effective for information labels on home appliances or electronic devices, as well as large labels in the graphics market that require a high level of air-release performance.

As the label is applied to the surface, the air escapes via the channels, avoiding the formation of bubbles and resulting in smooth adhesion.

With a UL969 certification, the bubble-free labelstock range is compliant with the safety standards issued by Underwriters Laboratories Inc., the most authoritative safety insurance organisation in the USA.
