12% thinner labelstock construction

• Larger rolls will fit on press – 40” unwind stands

– More material in the same amount of physical space– Less roll changes – greater efficiency and fewer splices

• 1.7 mil High Density liner offers excellent press performance• Liner caliper change will require new dies for most applications

• Up to 1/3 more footage on your unconverted roll with a 40 inch outside diameter!

• Fewer roll changes - 300,000 feet production

• 30 roll changes at 10,000 feet • 20 roll changes at 15,000 feet • 15 roll changes at 20,000 feet

• Less roll changes = less waste

• Splice in new roll – change matrix waste – take off converted labels – register job 15 minutes each / 5 fewer roll changes = 75 minutes

Fanfolding differences

• Fanfolding is smooth and easy

• More labels per carton

– 5,000, 4 x 6 labels fit in the same carton as the current 4,000, 4 x 6 labels in a carton

• Reduction in packaging costs

• Reduction in storage space for finished product

Leading innovation

• Less weight to ship throughout the supply chain– 1.7 mil labelstock construction weighs 10% less than 2.4 mil labelstock
