WHAT IS IN-MOLD
LABELING?
In-mold labelling (IML) is a pre-decorating technique during which a label is placed in the open mold and becomes an integral part of the molded object when the bottle is blow molded or the container is injected. YUPOIML becomes a part of the container, thereby resulting in superior performance.
