Packaging Shrinks

Published: April 01, 2009

Harvest Time Foods is reintroducing its Anne's Old Fashioned Natural & Organic soup-base products with redesigned shrink labels from Printpack's Seal-It Div., Farmingdale, NY. Made of heat shrink PVC, the labels offer a 360-deg image area, are flexo printed in five to six colors, and conform to the shape of the container, coming over the top and sealing the cap. The combination label incorporates a tamper-evident seal with a horizontal perforation that allows the band to be released from the cap while the label remains on the container. Prior to the combination shrink label, Harvest Time used a paper label and an inner seal, thus eliminating two components with the use of the shrink label.
