OPP (Oriented Poly-Propylene) Film Labels

In the competitive world of packaging, OPP films excel in many performance areas compared with paper. Recycling and durability favor OPP films and superior surface finishes allow for outstanding eye catching graphics. Clear films also allow for the increasingly popular “no-label look.”

At General Press, we are highly qualified to print OPP films for cut and stack, patch, wrap, die-cut or in-mold label applications. Our new MAN Roland 700 is equipped with the most innovative equipment to feed, print and dry even the lightest weight films.

For the enhanced graphics of offset printing versus flexographic, the appeal and durability of OPP films, plus the competetive price advantage of being able to print thin gauge films, General Press is uniquely qualified as an OPP film label supplier.

Injection Mold Labeling

General Press has positioned itself as a leading supplier of injection mold
labeling (IML). IML is a rapidly developing, highly complex marketplace
that requires specialized equipment and a high level of technical expertise.
In addition to our ability to print on lightweight films, we have upgraded
our die cutting and finishing to meet the strict requirements of molders.
Accurate and efficient die cutting in small, medium and large format are all
available.

Patterned after the European printers who have been servicing the overseas IML marketplace for a decade, General Press is the right supplier for your IML projects in North America.
