Kernow introduces high performance synthetic labelstock range

‘The concept remains the same,’ said Paul Dimery, Kernow’s group sales manager. ‘We are bringing our world renowned digitally printable films to the label market by marrying them with a wide range of adhesives, from microsphere to marine and from emulsion acrylic to solvent in conjunction with a range of release liners. We have an exceptionally wide range of face stocks from whites to clear, translucent, colors and even metallic, including matte silver, ranging in thickness from 36 microns to over 300 micron. The result will be one of the widest and highest performing ranges of digitally printable self-adhesive label stock available on the market. As well as our standard self-adhesive product range, the variety of products available is limitless because we can create our own coatings. For example, we can colour match to any Pantone colour, and mix and match adhesives and release liners. In addition to this, we can also help customers design and develop new products and concepts using our state-of-the-art pilot coater and laboratory.’

‘Applications range from waterproof labels for liquids, jams and pickles, fire extinguishers, burglar alarms, chemical drums, fuse boxes and outdoor signage through to asset labeling, electronic and mechanical components and for cable marking.’
