ST. LOUIS, MO—RotoMetrics has been named the winner of the 2018 Industry Innovation Award for its RotoRepel adhesive control treatment at the Label Industry Global Awards ceremony in Chicago during Labelexpo Americas 2018.
The Label Industry Global Awards, created in 2004 to celebrate innovation and excellence, are presented annually during Labelexpo. The Innovation Award recognizes the most impactful products and processes introduced by a supplier/converter during 2017 in the label industry.
According to RotoMetrics, customer feedback indicates not only is RotoRepel a top no-stick and adhesive control product on the market today, but RotoRepel also offers expanded benefits that improve performance, including:
- Reduction of adhesive buildup on all adhesive types resulting in less die wear and damage
- Significant reduction in number of press shutdowns so presses run faster and longer
- Dies are easier to clean and return to inventory ready to run again
- Fewer missing labels and a reduction of blocking during rewind reducing waste and inefficiencies
Additionally, the new RotoRepel Rx formulation is compliant with U.S. FDA regulations and is safe for intended use in the conversion of parts, devices and labels. It also meets the requirements for food contact applications.
