The Austrian packaging company Greiner Packaging presents a thermoformed cup that is already labelled in the mould using IML. Compared to injection moulding, the weight is reduced by 25 percent.<\/strong><\/p>

While in-mould labelling (IML) was previously only used in combination with injection moulding production technology, the Greiner Packaging<\/a> is now expanding its expertise in the field of thermoforming by offering thermoformed IML cups. Less plastic is needed for thermoformed cups, which saves resources and makes the cups lighter.<\/strong> This means they produce less CO2 during transport. Both cups and IML labels are made of polypropylene (PP).<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

With in-mould labelling, a label is inserted into the thermoforming mould in which the product is formed and thus forms a permanent bond with the finished product. With this decoration method, moulding and decorating are carried out efficiently in just one step.<\/strong> Greiner Packaging is already able to produce T-IML cups: It has invested in a test tool and can offer cups with a diameter of 95 millimetres and 500 millilitres. By switching from injection moulding to thermoforming, the cup weight for this format is reduced from 15 to 11.4 grams<\/strong> - This corresponds to a reduction of 25 per cent.<\/p>

\u201eAt Greiner Packaging, we are committed to a circular economy and want to be broadly positioned. Our new T-IML cups use less material and can be optimally recycled.<\/strong> This approach is exactly what we wanted,\u201c says Philipp Maurer, Key Account Manager at Greiner Packaging.<\/p>
