Before finalizing the machine design and raw materials selection, sample materials were produced in ETI’s Technology Center.

The production line includes in-line silicone release coating and curing and an innovative two-position adhesive coating station that can directly coat or transfer coat UV-cured adhesives.

Uniquely engineered by ETI, this Acuro enables our client to produce linerless label roll stock in addition to pressure-sensitive laminates on both paper and film.

Richard Hoffmann, sales manager for ETI Converting, commented: ‘I’m thrilled to be a part of this project because additional revenue opportunities are already lining up for our customer as a result of their decision to become more independent.’
