Paper Based Lidding
Paper based pre-cut lids offer an environmentally friendly option. All of the raw material paper used in the lids comes from sustainable sources. Paper based lids are fully recyclable and have a low carbon footprint.
Paper based lidding offers good protection against oxygen transmission and water vapour (humidity), as well as blocking out aromas making it suitable for sensitive products.
The high mechanical strength and superior stiffness afforded by paper based lids means they offer great resilience to puncture and tearing ensuring the integrity of the product throughout the supply chain.
In terms of printing; paper based lids offer excellent printability and optical properties.
Laser Score Pour Spout
The laser score or drinking aperture die cut lid from Chadwicks is a single web PET die cut lid with a peel aperture.
Developed in response to the drive to remove drinking straws, the peel aperture is ideal for drinking on the go. It can also be used for pouring without removing the entire lid and can be customised to individual customer requirements.
Available in clear or white PET printed or unprinted, the laser score pour spout lid can be branded as required.
Suitable for all types of pre cut lidding machinery, switching to the laser score pour spout lid is easy, as there is no customer investment required.
RPET Lidding
RPET lidding is an exciting development in recycling post-consumer and industrial waste.
It uses over 30 percent recycled raw material content and the material has the same optical properties as standard white or clear PET films.
RPET lidding is suitable for all types of pre-cut lidding machinery.
RPET lidding offers excellent barrier properties and is equal to standard PET lids.
Unique Coding/Mirror Print Lids
A unique code is printed on the surface of the lid and is only revealed when the lid is peeled back.
Neither the quality of the design or functionality of the lid are compromised, and because the ink is not printed in direct contact with the product, there is no risk of product contamination.
This reverse mirror print effect can also be used for the inclusion of further promotional information, competitions and other marketing opportunities.
UV HD Flexo Printing
UV HD Flexo print provides “gravure” standard print quality finish at a fraction of the origination costs involved due to plate based technology. UV cured inks allow a very small dot size to be printed.
UV HD printing is an extremely cost effective solution on small to medium length print runs, offering faster set up times and lower unit cost production.
