InfoPeel
Tabulated peel and reveal labels are an innovative labelling solution designed to meet the growing need for increased on-pack information without increasing label size or compromising shelf impact. By integrating a clearly defined pull-tab into a multi-layer label construction, this solution significantly improves usability and consumer interaction compared with traditional peel-back or booklet labels. The tabulated design provides a strong visual and tactile cue, clearly indicating where and how to open the label. This makes the label intuitive to use, including for first-time users, elderly consumers, or those with reduced dexterity. The label can be opened and resealed multiple times while maintaining adhesive performance and pack integrity throughout the product lifecycle. Tabulated peel and reveal labels enable brands to include extensive regulatory information, multilingual text, instructions for use, promotional messaging, and brand storytelling within a compact footprint, while keeping the primary label clean and uncluttered. This is particularly valuable in markets facing increasing legislative and compliance requirements. The solution is engineered for reliable performance on high-speed automated application lines and offers an efficient alternative to secondary packaging, leaflets, or inserts. Carefully selected materials and adhesives ensure durability, consistent print quality across layers, and dependable real-world performance. At the event, visitors will be able to physically interact with tabulated peel and reveal labels to experience the smooth opening action, reseal reliability, and space-saving construction. This hands-on demonstration clearly shows how innovative label design can enhance functionality, compliance, and consumer engagement across sectors including food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, personal care, chemicals, and nutraceuticals.
