Product packaging plays a crucial role in your product’s success. It’s not just about containment—packaging tells the customer what’s inside, reflects your brand identity, and provides essential information. With shelf competition more intense than ever, having eye-catching and informative packaging can be the key to setting your product apart.
What Is In-Mold Labeling?
In-Mold Labeling (IML) is a cutting-edge technique that integrates the label into the packaging during the molding process. This one-step method fuses the label directly onto the container, making it inseparable from the product and delivering a polished, seamless look.
Globally and in Indonesia, the adoption of IML has been growing steadily over the past decade. It’s especially popular in the food and beverage industry—not only for its aesthetic advantages but also for its performance and sustainability.
Benefits of In-Mold Labeling
Enhance Product Appearance
IML offers a wide variety of finishes—glossy, matte, textured, or multi-colored—allowing brands to better communicate their identity and quality. The labels support high-definition imagery, resulting in clearer photos and illustrations. Plus, the integration eliminates common packaging issues like blisters and bubbles, improving shelf appeal.
Cost-Efficiency
As a one-step process, IML is incredibly efficient. It removes the need for additional labeling steps or manual labor, saving time and cost in production.
Sustainability
Cahaya Jakarta’s IMLs are made of polypropylene, the same material as the molded containers themselves. This mono-material approach means the entire package can be recycled together—making it more environmentally friendly than adhesive labels, which often use mixed materials and require separation.
Technological Advancements
Thanks to recent innovations in molding and automation, IML is more efficient and accessible than ever. Faster cycle times, improved cooling, and better mold designs have solved earlier technical limitations—making IML a reliable, high-quality choice across industries.
From ice cream tubs and cookie containers to paint buckets and cereal packaging, IML is a versatile, attractive, and forward-thinking solution.
