Finnish beauty brand Lumene has launched a biobased packaging with both the jar and label made with UPM’s wood-based material, further processed by Sabic. Lumene’s new jar and the self-adhesive label originate from renewable UPM BioVerno naphtha, produced by UPM in Finland. The naphtha is processed into certified renewable polypropylene by Sabic, a chemical industry specialist, and then converted both into commonly recyclable cosmetics containers and product labels printed on UPM Raflatac Forest Film label material.
Jeil Printing, a supplier of self-adhesive labels, recently unveiled the installation of the first Anytron Any-Jet III digital inline label press in Korea. This development led to a substantial shift in its operations, with over 40 percent of its production volume transitioning from flexo to digital.
Loftware, enterprise labeling and artwork management software provider, has launched Loftware NiceLabel Cloud Designer. This new release offers small businesses an easy-to-use and secure cloud-based platform allowing them to design, store, and print professional labels in minutes.
Students at La Crescent High and Middle School are taking on another lesson in the print industry. This is possible with the support of a packaging supplier, Inland Packaging. Inland presented Mark Moulton, a STEM teacher at La Crescent High School, with a check. This was used to purchase a new VersaStudio Printer, which is sought out to bolster La Crescent's initiatives in augmenting its technical education and business department. The reimagining of these departments will facilitate students in creating career pathways through the courses offered.
