Collaboration initiated by Siegwerk and Ravenwood for eco-friendly labeling solution

Siegwerk, a leading global provider of printing inks for packaging applications, and Ravenwood, a specialist in linerless label solutions, have announced their joint appearance at the upcoming LabelExpo, where they will showcase an integrated solution of linerless labels and BPA-free varnishes.

This innovative solution, approved for use with Siegwerk's linerless labels, complies with Nestlé guidelines and Swiss and German printing ink regulations. The approval for BPA-free coatings from Siegwerk Printing Inks for Ravenwood Packaging's linerless systems was given by the German Federal Institute for Risk Assessment (BfR).

The varnishes approved for use with Siegwerk's linerless labels meet strict migration limits and toxicological standards defined by the GIO. This compliance facilitates the international market access of the varnishes, making them suitable for applications in the food, pharma, and hygiene sectors.

The integrated solution offers advantages in storage, transport, and sustainability, as well as a higher label yield per roll. It aims to accelerate the introduction of sustainable labeling solutions, contributing to food safety and consumer protection, as stated.

Linerless labels, which eliminate silicone-coated release liners, are now approved for use with Siegwerk's BPA-free varnishes. This approval is expected to have a significant impact on the industry, as it paves the way for more environmentally friendly and efficient labeling solutions.

At the upcoming LabelExpo, Siegwerk and Ravenwood plan to present this integrated solution for the first time. This event provides an excellent opportunity for industry professionals to learn about the benefits of these sustainable labeling solutions and how they can contribute to a more sustainable future.

This collaboration between Siegwerk and Ravenwood is a step forward in the development of more sustainable labeling solutions. It demonstrates the commitment of both companies to reducing their environmental impact and promoting a more sustainable future for the packaging industry.
