You don’t need to do secondary processing if an injection machine or a blow molding machine equipped with the labeling system which can make a preprinted label permanently fused to the plastic part itself. It is not only reducing the production process but also increase the production capacity.

And the advantage of In mold label is environmental friendly. The label is fused with the plastic container and won’t peel off. The characteristic for its waterproof and dirt resistance can make the product reusable. If IML applied on the disposable products, no need to peel off the label from the container while recycling.
