Releasing sustainability and innovation
The only constant in the pressure sensitive market is change. And today’s changes are moving the industry toward bigger, faster equipment and higher performing release liners and coatings that do more.
Through close collaboration with leading industry partners, we are developing silicone-based solutions that not only help you overcome your release coating challenges, but also contribute to a world with more sustainability solutions. Our extensive range of SYL-OFF™ Silicone Release Coatings enable a lower environmental footprint by reducing waste and improving energy efficiency for our customers without compromising on performance and speed.
From labels and graphic arts to electronics and hygiene, let’s release innovation together.
High-speed coating solutions for release liners
As demand for self-adhesive labels continues to rise across industries, including food and beverage, automotive and beauty, personal and home care, so too does the demand on our customers. We’re here to help you address the need for quicker production lines and move toward higher efficiency, improved costs and better operations.
Our portfolio of SYL-OFF™ silicone-based solutions for high-speed release coatings solves the three key challenges associated with increasing converting speeds to meet increasing production levels:
Curing at lower temperatures
Anchorage to paper at higher speeds
Minimizing mist to prevent dusting and downtime of the customer process
Future-proofed at speeds higher than 1000 meters/minute, SYL-OFF™ silicone-based release coating solutions are designed to ensure you meet your labeling needs of today and tomorrow.
Higher speeds without compromise
