Labels:
The adhesives used with our labels are NOT recyclable. Therefore the labels are not recyclable since the adhesive cannot be separated. If you want your package to be recyclable, direct the consumer to remove the label first before putting it in the recycle bin. Ideally, the label should be removed easily. Please test this with your specific packaging. Synthetic labels such as Matte BOPP or Extreme Poly will be more easily removed from packaging. Paper labels such as Premium Gloss may separate into multiple pieces and be more difficult to remove.

Please see our Environmental Policy for information regarding the European Union's (EU) WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) Directive.

existing Primera printers.
