CMG Plastics Expands High-Speed In-Mold Labeling Resources

The company, which currently operates twelve IML systems across two manufacturing facilities, has added a new, high-speed Ilsemann Automation In-Mold Labeling System. The newest IML line is the fourth to be installed at the company’s NJ-based facility.

One significant benefit is that IML yields a 100% recyclable package, eliminating the need to physically separate product packaging from traditional pressure-sensitive labels or shrink sleeves that are often not recyclable. “Consumer brand managers have dramatically shifted from ‘requesting’ to ‘requiring” unique and environmentally responsible packaging solutions,” states Jens Duerr, Director of Business Development. “As a fully-integrated part of the container, IML further enables brands to achieve both their marketing and sustainability goals.”
