Benefits Of Stretch Sleeves
Stretch sleeves offer retailers an economical way to create 360 product decorations on cans bottles and jars. With no adhesives or heat required for use they are an ideal option for products in almost every industry. Our stretch sleeves are made from linear lowdensity polyethylene (LLLdPE) and offer high elasticity (30 to 40%) needed to conform close to highly contoured vessels. We can also add perforations to sleeves. These can serve as visible features surrounding a seal or help consumers remove their own sleeves.
In addition there are 2 types of stretch label materials - fabric and polypropylene, which means they can be printed on a huge range of printing techniques including laser engraving, digital print, pad print, flexo print, thermal transfer print and rotary screen printing.
Customizing Your Stretch Sleeve
Printing on stretch labels can be done using either direct print or with a secondary label. With primary labels, you place the primary label stock over the stretch film and then print directly onto the film while your Laser printer is running through its engraving cycle - we'll talk more about this later in the article! For secondary labels, there will be a separate label that becomes part of the sleeve material itself (See Diagram 1). This means that when customers remove your product from their packaging, they also remove your branding for maximum impact.
