Wet strength paper for beverage labels
Beer bottles are a popular application for the wet and alkali-resistant paper labels. However, they are also used for many other beverages and foodstuffs. The wet-strength labels are also used for sparkling wine, spirits, liqueurs, vodka, gin, schnapps as well as for jars for vegetables, fruit or jams.
Optimal properties for wet and alkali-resistant labels
Brigl & Bergmeister offers a comprehensive range of products for the beverage industry - because wet-strength labels are particularly important for beverage bottles. The Label paper must not only deliver good printing results here, but also withstand external influences that occur in the course of filling, transport, storage or cooling.
The wet-strength and alkali-resistant papers from Brigl & Bergmeister impress with their excellent wet-strength and alkali-resistance. Added to this are the highest possible printing and labelling speeds, excellent ink adhesion in washing lyes and optimum varnishability. In the production process, environmental friendliness plays just as important a role as the high-quality surface structure and smoothness of the papers.
