The supermarket industry is actively responding to the national environmental protection and carbon reduction policy, from reducing the use of single-use plastics, stopping plastic bags, to preventing food waste, promoting recycling and so on.

The use of bottomless paper labels is also one of the moves towards sustainable development in the supermarket industry.

The traditional label structure consists of a surface material, an adhesive, and a protective release backing paper (the backing paper is removed during labeling).

Although consumers who shop in the supermarket do not know the existence of the backing paper, the backing paper accounts for one-third of the traditional label structure, and most of it eventually becomes garbage and is disposed of in landfills.

Non-backing paper labels can replace traditional thermal labels and be used in the field of variable information (VI) printing.

Compared to a decade ago, technological advances have made paperless labels easier to use, more reliable in quality, and suitable for different types of pastes.

Today's paperless labels use new adhesives and improved silicon coating technology, which is not only more beneficial to the environment, but also improve the working efficiency of the supermarket.

The surface of the paperless label material has a silicon-based coating that allows the label to be easily disconnected from the label roll.

Supermarket staff only need to print the label and then immediately attach it to the packaging, saving the time of tearing off the backing paper and disposing of the backing paper waste.

The thinning of the label structure enables 50% more labels to be printed per roll of paperless material.

Different product packaging needs different label lengths, conventional paper products need to reserve a variety of sizes of label rolls, no paper products can control the length of the label, a roll of material corresponding to a variety of labels, but also to avoid waste of materials caused by label blank, reduce the frequency of supermarket staff to change rolls, but also to increase the operating life of the printer.

In the supermarket scene, the paperless label can be applied to the packaging of various products such as cooked food, raw meat and seafood, and baked goods.
