MCC Verstraete, known as the world market leader in polypropylene in mold labels for plastic packaging, has expanded its product range with a sustainable paper label solution for fiber-molded packaging.

Molded Fiber Labeling™ (MFL™) will be showcased in collaboration with Pagès Group at interpack 2023. The live demos during the fair in Düsseldorf count as the world premiere of MFL for round fiber molded containers.

Mono-material fiber molded packaging

Molded fiber packaging is gaining interest from FMCG brands all over the world. As this type of packaging deserves a sustainable decoration method, Molded Fiber Labeling was developed in close collaboration with Pagès Group.

A glue-free label solution, Molded Fiber Labeling ensures a strong fusion with the fiber molded packaging. As packaging and label are made of compatible fiber materials, the result is a 100% mono-material packaging that can be fully recycled or composted. MFL is applicable to both wet and dry fiber molded packaging.
