什么是模内标籤?
模内标籤 (IML) 是一种常见且前沿的塑胶製品装饰和标籤方式,尤其是在包装领域。标籤本身的开发和生产标誌着模内贴标过程的开始。模内贴标过程涉及多种工艺。首先,模具中充满预先列印的标籤或薄膜,其中包含必要的视觉效果、文字和品牌组件。关闭它们后,将熔化的塑料倒入其中以呈现模具的形状并粘附到标籤上。当塑胶冷却并硬化时,它们与物体融合,形成牢固且无缝的连接。通常,标籤由轻质、柔韧且耐用的物质组成,例如聚丙烯或聚乙烯。它们可能印有鲜艳的色彩、精美的图案、产品细节、品牌组件、条码或二维码。根据所需的美学效果,标籤可以是不透明的、半透明的或透明的。此外,它们包含在成型过程本身中,这与传统的标籤技术不同,传统的标籤技术需要在产品创建后将标籤贴到产品的表面。在泵送塑胶之前将它们放入模具中,将标籤和产品无缝地融合在一起。
由于政府在许多国家实施封锁,许多生产设施停止运营,从而暂时减少了模内标籤的整体生产数量。由于实施新流程以降低风险以及执行社会隔离和停工措施,玩家不得不减少产能或暂时停止产出。由于担心感染,技术人员和劳动力的缺乏对此影响较大。此次疫情期间,由于产品转运受限、车辆通行受限、劳力短缺等原因,不少企业遭受损失。此外,由于对冠状病毒的广泛关注,领先企业的技术创新和研发计划被推迟或放弃。然而,当病例数开始下降并且政府放鬆政策后,球员们就恢復了活动。此外,当营运恢復以更高水准的安全性、速度和效率生产商品时,参与者取得了重大的持续技术进步。
对美观包装解决方案不断增长的需求主要推动了全球市场的发展。随着人们越来越注重产品展示和消费者吸引力,食品和饮料、个人护理和消费品等行业的公司正在采用模内标籤来区分商店货架上的产品并提升品牌形象,从而影响市场。同时,消费者对永续包装日益增长的偏好极大地支持了市场,因为 IML 消除了对额外材料的需求并减少了浪费。此外,由于成本优势,相较于传统贴标方法,消费者更倾向于模内贴标。透过整合标籤和成型工艺,製造商正在简化生产,降低劳动力成本,并消除额外的标籤设备,这是另一个促进成长的因素。除此之外,全球各国政府正在对产品标籤实施更严格的法规,特别是在食品和药品等产业,推动了市场的发展。此外,数位印刷和高清图形等印刷製程的技术进步提高了模内标籤的品质和多功能性,正在创造积极的市场前景。推动市场的其他一些因素包括快速工业化和汽车行业的显着成长。

What are In-Mold Labels?
In-mold labels (IML) are a common and cutting-edge way of embellishing and labeling plastic items, especially in the field of packaging. The development and production of the label itself mark the beginning of the in-mold labeling process. There are various processes involved in the in-mold labeling process. First, molds are filled with a pre-printed label or film that has the necessary visuals, text, and branding components. After closing them, molten plastic is poured inside to take on the shape of the mold and adhere to the label. They are fused with the object when the plastic cools and hardens, forming a strong and seamless connection. Usually, the labels are composed of a lightweight, flexible, and long-lasting substance, such as polypropylene or polyethylene. They may be imprinted with vivid colors, elaborate patterns, product details, branding components, barcodes, or QR codes. Depending on the desired aesthetic outcome, the labels may be opaque, translucent, or transparent. Additionally, they are included in the molding process itself, as opposed to conventional labeling techniques, which entail attaching labels to a product's surface after it has been created. They are put into the mold before the plastic is pumped, fusing the label and the product together seamlessly.
Numerous production facilities stopped operating as a result of the government-ordered lockdown that was enforced across many nations, which temporarily reduced the number of In-mold labels produced overall. Players had to reduce capacity or temporarily halt output due to the implementation of new processes to reduce risk and the execution of social isolation and lockout measures. Due to the concern of contracting an infection, the lack of technicians and laborers had a greater influence on this. Several companies suffered losses during this epidemic as a result of the restrictions on the transfer of products, restrictions on the movement of vehicles, and labor scarcity. In addition, the widespread concern over coronavirus, the leading players' plans for technical innovation and research and development had been delayed or abandoned. However, as soon as the number of cases began to decline and the government offered relaxations, the players resumed their activity. In addition, players made major ongoing technological advancements when operations resumed producing goods with higher levels of safety, speed, and efficiency.
The rising demand for aesthetically appealing packaging solutions majorly drives the global market. With the increasing focus on product presentation and consumer appeal, companies across industries, such as food and beverage, personal care, and consumer goods, are adopting in-mold labeling to differentiate their products on store shelves and enhance their brand image, thus impacting the market. Along with this, the growing consumer preference for sustainable packaging is significantly supporting the market as IML eliminates the need for additional materials and reduces waste. In addition, consumers are inclined toward in-mold labeling over traditional labeling methods due to cost advantages. By integrating labeling and molding processes, manufacturers are streamlining production, reducing labor costs, and eliminating additional labeling equipment, which is acting as another growth-inducing factor. Apart from this, governments across the globe are implementing stricter regulations on product labeling, especially in industries, such as food and pharmaceuticals, propelling the market. Furthermore, technological advancements in printing processes, such as digital printing and high-definition graphics to enhance the quality and versatility of in-mold labels are creating a positive market outlook. Some of the other factors driving the market include rapid industrialization and significant growth in the automotive industry.
