LINTEC Retro-Reflective Films for Warehouse Applications

Expanding its LINTEC® labelstock portfolio, Mactac® announces the addition of retro-reflective films to its product line-up.

Designed for label applications such as warehouse racking, pallet labels, safety, and warning labels, construction signage, and industrial labeling, the retro-reflective films are ideal for barcode scanning. The films are constructed from a polyester material uniquely embedded with glass beads that enable long-range barcode scanning – up to 50-feet. Retro-reflective films feature long-term indoor durability and 1 to 2 years outdoor durability.

“The glass beads give the retro-reflective polyester films a light silver appearance and allow barcode scanning from a distance, making them great for warehouses and other applications where pallets or products are often stacked and harder to reach,” said Cassandra Semonin, Marketing Manager, Mactac Performance Adhesives.

Retro-reflective films are top-coated for enhanced printability with thermal transfer and flexographic print methods. Products include:
LTCRRF01: 3.9-mil polyester with an 89# blue Kraft liner and a high-performance low-ooze acrylic adhesive (P0066) that offers higher tack and ultimate adhesion to various high and low energy substrates. The P0066 adhesive is designed specifically for difficult-to-adhere-to low energy surfaces, including textured and rough surfaces.
LTCRRF02: 3.9-mil polyester with a 50# white glassine liner and a versatile, high-performance low-ooze permanent acrylic adhesive (PAT1) designed for a variety of general durable applications and conditions. The PAT1 adhesive has excellent mandrel hold and ultimate adhesion to many high and low-energy substrates.

Both low-ooze adhesives offer cleaner on-press and thermal transfer print performance and reduce the risk of label peel-off.

Metsä Group to draw up biodiversity plans for its mill areas – Kemi the first in line

Metsä Group plans to boost biodiversity on its land areas in Kemi. Covering more than 650 hectares, the designated site encompasses Metsä Group’s mill area and other areas in the Kemi urban environment. Metsä Group’s operations in Kemi include a bioproduct mill, currently under construction, and a paperboard mill. The company aims to increase regional biodiversity at all its mill locations across Europe, which number more than 20. The goal is to modify land use on the Metsä Group Kemi site to improve the state of nature in the industrial environment. The special features of local nature will be taken into account in the project, and the living conditions of endangered species will be improved. Biodiversity in the area will be increased experimentally and by adopting new operating methods. For example, more than 12 hectares of meadows and sunlit habitats will be added to the Kemi mill area. Only local vegetation will be used in establishing open habitats, and these habitats will be made suitable for endangered species. Various other approaches to increasing the biodiversity of industrial environments will also be tested on the mill site.
