More than a way to hold products together
Printed banding material allows you to combine branding with fixed product information in one design.
From your logo and product messaging to ingredients, nutritional information, and preparation instructions, the band can be designed around what you want to communicate.
Why choose branding by banding
Keep your products visible
Banding material covers a small section of the product or packaging
An adhesive-free solution
Use banding as an alternative to adhesive labels, stickers, or liner waste.
Minimal by design
Achieve strong shelf presence while using significantly less packaging material.
360 degrees to tell your story
More space for what makes your brand different.
A band travels around the product, making it a continuous surface for branding and communication.
Add all the information your product needs without covering it up.
More product visibility. More shelf impact.
Eye-catching branding does not always need to hide what is inside.
Because banding material covers a small section of the packaging, your product remains the main focus while the material provides enough space to communicate your branding.
With branding by banding, your product remains the hero, and banding tells your story.
Combine branding and real-time printing
Branding by banding can communicate more than just logos and fixed information.
With configured banding machines, you can print variable data directly onto the banding material during application:
- Weight and price
- Changing barcodes / QR codes
- Expiration dates
Better for your brand. Better for the planet.
Strong branding and sustainability can go hand in hand.
With branding by banding, you can:
- Use FSC-certified materials
- Eliminate adhesives
- Support mono-material packaging designs
- Operate linerless with zero application waste
Reduce packaging material while maintaining maximum visual impact.
