CCL Label expands Spanish operations

CCL Label has expanded its operations in Tibi, Spain, consolidating high-performance shrink sleeve and in-mold label (IML) production into a single facility serving the food and beverage market.

The expanded site now offers offset and gravure printing technologies, along with new die-cutting capabilities, designed to deliver vibrant graphics and precise detail for demanding packaging applications.

'We have significantly strengthened our production platform in Tibi with the addition of new high-performance printing presses and expanded die-cutting capabilities,' said Reinhard Streit, group vice president for food and beverage global at CCL Label. 'This integration enhances efficiency, accelerates lead times and creates a powerful center of excellence for decorative products serving the food and beverage market.'

The expansion aligns with European packaging regulations, particularly the EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR), which introduces harmonized design, recyclability and labeling requirements across member states. CCL's Tibi production lines offer shrink sleeves and in-mold labels designed to be PPWR-compliant and aligned with Design for Recycling guidelines.

Streit added that the investment reinforces the company's commitment to both market performance and responsible design. 'We combine local agility with global expertise to help brands thrive in an evolving regulatory landscape, from labeling compliance to sustainable packaging outcomes,' he noted.
