as sophisticated marketing and track and trace tools, leading to growth for value-added label types.“Ongo- ing improvements in converting techniques and printing technologies will lower costs and increase penetration of these higher value labels,” said analyst Ellen Kriz. Pressure sensitive labels will continue to displace glue-applied labels going forward, though at a slower pace than that of the last decade, the report con- firms. Emerging opportunities, in addition to the aforementioned anticipated growth in the pastic and film label segment, include specialized labels, such as RFID-enabled varieties and extended content labels. Variable information labels in secondary and mail- ing and shipping applications are expected to post strong growth, the report reveals. Gains in secondary labels will be largely driven by value-added track and trace labels in transportation and distribution mar- kets, as well as increased retail activity. “Mailing and shipping labels will benefit from the continued growth of e-commerce,” Kriz says.“Address labels for individually packaged items instead of bulk shipping to stores, as well as a trend toward printing return labels, will boost demand.” Windmöller & Hölscher has confirmed Apex Inter- national to be certified partner of aniloxe rolls for the flexo printing presses in the showroom.
