Hub Labels was the first U.S. printer to introduce linerless label technology in 2009. Linerless labels provide all the benefits of pressure sensitive labeling with improved efficiency, increased roll capacity, and a strong sustainability advantage since no liner is required.
Available in silicone‐coated paper and sustainable film substrates, our linerless labels use a precision pattern‐coat adhesive system that places glue strips exactly where needed and minimizes adhesive contact on the roll. With no liner backing, packaging teams benefit from less waste, lighter reels, fewer roll changes, and smoother application on high speed lines.
Linerless labels are ideal for skin pack trays and high volume food packaging environments where traditional labels can be difficult to apply. As the demand for environmentally responsible packaging continues to grow, we work with meat, poultry, and seafood processors to integrate linerless labels as a reliable and sustainable solution.
Does your business serve up fresh caught seafood, specialty meats or another delicious food item? Skin packs are a safe and affordable way to package your products but it can leave you feeling limited on labelling options. Linerless labels offer a solution to wrapping and branding your cryovac food packages.
By wrapping around and adhering to the full package, you’re not limited to traditional adhesive labels and you rely on less materials. Show off your brand, present nutrition facts and set yourself apart from other food on the shelf with help from Hub Labels.
