Jujo Thermal showcases at Labelexpo Europe its re-engineered Linerless range


Press release 30.8.2023

Jujo Thermal´s re-engineered linerless concept marks a significant stride towards a more economical yet straightforward linerless operation

The Linerless labelling process – utilizing a label construction consisting of only three layers: paper, silicone and adhesive – has gained popularity thanks to its cost-efficiency and sustainability.  Jujo Thermal decided to critically assess the factors influencing the Linerless labelling performance, resulting in a re-designed product concept for Direct Thermal Linerless label applications. And offering a wealth of advantages. Our innovative concept ensures trouble-free silicone and adhesive coating, consistent label dispensing, and superior thermal print imaging.

At Labelexpo, Jujo Thermal will showcase the re-engineered Linerless concept, putting the spotlight on two products, JujoL-KMLZS-75 and JujoL-KMLZB-80.  Product demonstrations are carried out at Jujo’s stand with linerless printers.

We collaborate closely with our customers to develop tailored linerless solutions that precisely match their requirements, whether it is for quick-service restaurants or returnable product labeling. Our product offerings span a wide range of grammage (50-100) and encompass various features, enabling us to meet specific product design criteria. Our commitment to innovation fuels our ability to address the evolving demands of linerless solutions.

Mika Anttila, R&D Director

JujoL-KMLZS-75, a non-topcoated grade designed for retail label applications, boasts exceptional silicone holdout and coverage. It is a reliable and cost-efficient choice, characterized by low silicone demand and the absence of a top-coating layer. Additionally, it is produced without phenols, reinforcing its environmentally conscious profile.  

In response to the ever-increasing interest in barrier reverse-side treated thermal linerless products, Jujo has developed the JujoL-KMLZB-80 product. The barrier reverse-side coated product enables the converter to control the adhesive migration, for example, when using water-based adhesives, and hence to optimize productivity and quality.

Jujo Thermal exhibits at Labelexpo on 11-14.9.2023 on stand 6 A 13 and showcases all its three specialty papers categories: thermal and C1S papers for label, ticket and POS applications, and packaging paper SHIELDPLUS designed for flexible packaging.
