Linerless labeling with banding
A smarter way to label
Looking for a linerless labeling solution?
Banding lets you label and brand products without backing liners or adhesives.
No liner waste. No adhesive. One smarter labeling solution.
Linerless labels vs Banding
Both solutions eliminate release liner waste, but they work differently. Traditional linerless labels still use adhesive. Banding takes a different approach by wrapping printed banding material around the product or packaging.
| Comparison | Conventional linerless label | Banding |
|---|---|---|
| Release liner | No | No |
| Adhesive | Yes | No |
| Adhered to the packaging surface | Yes | No |
| Variable data printing | Yes | Yes |
| Branding space | Limited to label size | Up to 360° |
| Can secure or bundle products | No | Yes |
| Can support tamper evidence | Application dependent | Yes |
Go beyond removing the liner
Conventional linerless labels remove the backing liner but still rely on adhesive. Banding requires neither. At the same time, the band can carry branding, product information and variable data while also helping to secure, bundle or seal the product.
Label without adhesives
Unlike conventional linerless labels, banding does not need adhesive to remain on the product.
The band wraps around the product or packaging and stays in place with controlled tension.
That means:
- No adhesive on the primary packaging
- No sticky residue
- Easier material separation
- Less dependence on packaging surface characteristics
Eliminate liner waste
Pressure-sensitive labels require a release liner that becomes waste immediately after application.
Banding material requires no backing liner during application.
No liner to collect. No liner to dispose of. Less waste handling on the packaging line.
Linerless labeling that does more than label
Banding can do more than label:
Branding
Create up to 360° of space for branding and product information.
Seal
Help provide visible tamper evidence on trays, clamshells, and containers.
Bundle
Secure multiple products while carrying product or logistics information.
