Water-soluble label: flawless temporary traceability without leaving a trace

The ideal solution for reusable containers and returnable packaging

Water-soluble and biodegradable labels allow for temporary identification of products, containers, and packaging while facilitating their reuse. Designed to dissolve upon contact with water, they eliminate the constraints associated with manual label removal and simplify washing operations.

Particularly suitable for returnable bottles, food trays, reusable containers, logistics packaging, and professional equipment, water-soluble labels offer an effective solution for companies committed to reuse initiatives, the circular economy, and waste reduction.

Thanks to their rapid, residue-free dissolution, they optimize cleaning processes while helping to limit the environmental impact of industrial, agri-food, and logistics activities.

As a manufacturer of technical labels, we support professionals in developing temporary identification solutions tailored to their production, traceability, and durability requirements.

The benefits of our water-soluble labels

Rapid dissolution upon contact with water

• Removal without residue or manual intervention

• Ideal solution for returnable bottles and reusable containers

• Reduced cleaning time

• Compatible with initiatives for reuse and circular economy

• Eco-friendly alternative to traditional labels

• Reduced use of solvents and chemicals

• Customizable formats and cuts

A water-soluble label that disappears without a trace

Our water-soluble labels are designed to dissolve quickly during manual washing or in a dishwasher. Depending on the version chosen, the label or adhesive completely disappears without leaving any residue on the surface.

This technology simplifies container cleaning and avoids tedious manual removal operations.

A solution designed for packaging reuse

Given the rise of reusable packaging and returnable bottles, companies are seeking temporary labeling solutions that can effectively integrate into reuse systems.

Water-soluble labels allow for easy removal of temporary information such as:

• Expiration dates

• Barcodes

• Logistics information

• Batch identification

• Traceability information

Containers can then be cleaned and quickly returned to circulation.

Reduced environmental impact

Biodegradable and water-soluble labels help reduce the use of chemicals needed to remove traditional labels.

They also promote the recycling and reuse of packaging by limiting waste associated with labeling operations.

This solution fully aligns with the CSR initiatives and sustainable development strategies implemented by companies.
