PP Tableware IML Label Injection Molding

The PP Tableware IML Label Injection Molding produced by Zhongyu Manufacturer is aimed at food-grade plastic tableware manufacturers. It solves the industry problems of easy wear on the outer wall of conical dining bowls and the poor cleaning performance of stickers. The entire solution takes into account food contact safety, appearance expressiveness, and compliance requirements for overseas markets.

Product details

1.Conical surface fitting film material: Gradually stretches along the inclined wall of the dish bowl, and uniformly extends from the bowl rim to the bottom, preventing pattern distortion during stretching

2.Food contact grade printing system: The film material ink is specially selected for the food environment, eliminating ink migration and meeting the standards for children's tableware use

3.Large conical surface multi-color printing process: Reconstructs cartoon fine lines and multi-layer images, and the contour remains clear and sharp after conical surface injection molding

4.Specialized curve die-cutting outline: Makes curved cuts along the label area of the bowl, with smooth edges and no protrusions after forming

5.Thin wall fitting film material thickness: Matches the thin wall thickness of the PP bowl, avoiding local shrinkage and uneven wall thickness injection molding defects

IML Label Injection Molding Production Process

1. Gravure printing on PET/PP film and Lamination

2. Cutting into standard label sheets

3. Automatic robot places labels into injection mold cavity

4. Plastic melt injection, film and plastic melt into one piece

5. Demold finished IML plastic products directly

Characteristics

1. Special processing for inclined surface manuscripts

Identify the deformation differences from the bowl opening to the bowl bottom, and correct the text and graphics in advance to prevent the stretching and distortion of the cartoon character's features.

2. Complete set of food-grade material configuration

The film material and ink of PP Tableware IML Label Injection Molding are selected based on the scenario where they come into contact with food. They can be used to cooperate with customers to complete the verification of corresponding compliance documents.

3. Water-resistant and washable performance

It can withstand multiple hot water rinses and sponge wipes, and the pattern is sealed inside the substrate, without the problem of color fading or detachment.

4. Does not interfere with the structure of the tableware

The thin film material design makes the thin-walled PP tableware less prone to shrinkage, local bulging defects.

5. Capability of implementing copyright patterns

Precisely reproduce the complex contours and gradient colors of the cartoon character, meeting the appearance requirements of IP-licensed tableware.

6. Closed-loop production throughout the entire factory process

Printing, laminating, and die-cutting are all completed in a dust-free workshop, without outsourcing to external processing, and batch data is fully retained.

FAQ

1. Will there be any size distortion in the patterns on the rim and bottom of the PP bowl?

Answer: Based on the 3D cone angle data of the dinner bowl, the pattern distortion should be controlled within a reasonable range.

2. Can this set of IML labels be used for children's eating PP bowls?

Answer: Food contact grade materials can be selected, and relevant compliance testing supporting materials can be provided.

3. Only the effect pictures, without 3D models, can be directly used for prototyping?

Answer: The 3D cone surface drawing of the dinner bowl is required; otherwise, the graphic distortion caused by the inclined wall cannot be predicted.

4. Can the IML tableware finished products be washed repeatedly in the dishwasher?

Answer: The material selection can be matched with the dishwasher conditions, and the usage conditions should be confirmed before placing the order.

5. For the new product's small batch trial production, can you undertake it?

Answer: New product sample prototyping is supported; after verifying the forming effect, the large quantity delivery can be made.

6. The printing and die-cutting process is completed by the factory itself or outsourced?

Answer: All are completed in the own cleanroom, and the production and inspection records of each batch are archived for future reference.

7. Will using IML on thin-walled PP dinner bowls cause scratches?

Answer: By matching the wall thickness of the bowl with the corresponding thickness of the film material, the probability of creasing is reduced.
