什麼是模內標籤?
模內標籤 (IML) 是一種常見且前沿的塑膠製品裝飾和標籤方式,尤其是在包裝領域。標籤本身的開發和生產標誌著模內貼標過程的開始。模內貼標過程涉及多種工藝。首先,模具中充滿預先列印的標籤或薄膜,其中包含必要的視覺效果、文字和品牌組件。關閉它們後,將熔化的塑膠倒入其中以呈現模具的形狀並粘附到標籤上。當塑膠冷卻並硬化時,它們與物體融合,形成牢固且無縫的連接。通常,標籤由輕質、柔韌且耐用的物質組成,例如聚丙烯或聚乙烯。它們可能印有鮮豔的色彩、精美的圖案、產品細節、品牌組件、條碼或2D碼。根據所需的美學效果,標籤可以是不透明的、半透明的或透明的。此外,它們包含在成型過程本身中,這與傳統的標籤技術不同,傳統的標籤技術需要在產品創建後將標籤貼到產品的表面。在泵送塑膠之前將它們放入模具中,將標籤和產品無縫地融合在一起。
由於政府在許多國家實施封鎖,許多生產設施停止營運,從而暫時減少了模內標籤的整體生產數量。由於實施新流程以降低風險以及執行社會隔離和停工措施,玩家不得不減少產能或暫時停止產出。由於擔心感染,技術人員和勞動力的缺乏對此影響較大。此次疫情期間,由於產品轉運受限、車輛通行受限、勞力短缺等原因,不少企業遭受損失。此外,由於對冠狀病毒的廣泛關注,領先企業的技術創新和研發計劃被推遲或放棄。然而,當病例數開始下降並且政府放鬆政策後,球員們就恢復了活動。此外,當營運恢復以更高水準的安全性、速度和效率生產商品時,參與者取得了重大的持續技術進步。
對美觀包裝解決方案不斷成長的需求主要推動了全球市場的發展。隨著人們越來越注重產品展示和消費者吸引力,食品和飲料、個人護理和消費品等行業的公司正在採用模內標籤來區分商店貨架上的產品並提升品牌形象,從而影響市場。同時,消費者對永續包裝日益成長的偏好極大地支持了市場,因為 IML 消除了對額外材料的需求並減少了浪費。此外,由於成本優勢,相較於傳統貼標方法,消費者更傾向於模內貼標。透過整合標籤和成型工藝,製造商正在簡化生產,降低勞動力成本,並消除額外的標籤設備,這是另一個促進成長的因素。除此之外,全球各國政府正在對產品標籤實施更嚴格的法規,特別是在食品和藥品等產業,推動了市場的發展。此外,數位印刷和高畫質圖形等印刷製程的技術進步提高了模內標籤的品質和多功能性,正在創造積極的市場前景。推動市場的其他一些因素包括快速工業化和汽車行業的顯著成長。

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.
