XPANDALABEL TM BOOKLET LABELS With Rotolabel’s solution for all booklet and leaflet label needs, customers can look forward to high-quality, competitively priced booklet labels. Xpandalabel TM booklet labels can be designed and die-cut into various shapes and sizes, and the leaflet length is suitable for all informational needs and only limited by the final folded thickness.

Large amounts of information can be permanently attached to the label and the container, eliminating the need for separate package inserts and informational booklets. The elimination of the package insert can also potentially lead to the elimination of the carton –and result in substantial cost savings. Further savings can also be seen through the shortened packing process on the production line. In addition to pharmaceutical labels, Xpandalabel TM is also great for promotions, competitions, terms and conditions, recipes, give-aways and coupons, and can be applied to existing packaging for limited time offers.

LINER RECYCLING PROGRAMME Rotolabel is pushing the boundaries in sustainability. In conjunction with Avery Dennison, it is one of the first companies in South Africa’s labelling industry to become FSC compliant. These two companies have partnered in an exciting new initiative, which is revolutionary in the South African label industry. The initiative will result in tonnes of liners being diverted from ending up in our country’s already over-subscribed landfills.

The liner recycling programme is available for PET and glassine liners and is currently active in many countries worldwide. The liner recycling programme will be rolled out in Cape Town. Once the proof of concept is realised and manufacturers and consumers see its benefits, it will be rolled out nationally and to the industry. The liner is collected from customers and taken back to the Rotolabel site to be compacted. Avery Dennison then collects the compacted liner and loads it into a container to be sent to India where it is made into tissue paper.

CERTIFICATIONS • FSC compliant • ISO 22000 • ISO 9001 • Mellow Colour Proficient Printer Status. •
