Linerless Labels

Great Lakes Label has teamed up with some of the largest global distributors for direct thermal linerless products. When great adhesion and pristine guillotine properties are needed, choose linerless. This solution combines excellent adhesion with minimum adhesive build-up to an automatic cutting knife in linerless printers and application lines preventing paper jamming and improving print quality. Linerless labels are transforming the packaging and labeling industry by cutting waste, minimizing environmental impact, and enhancing efficiency in labeling processes. 

Linerless labels are simply a pressure-sensitive label without the liner, making them cost-effective and a more sustainable option for your operation. These labels have a special release coating applied to the face of the label that allows them to be wound tight on a roll without the adhesive sticking to the label below it.

With linerless demand increasing, you can rest assured that we can meet your supply needs with our high-capacity distributor selection.

With minimal adhesive build-up on equipment which leads to paper jams and breakdowns, you’ll save time & money with linerless labels

No liner means less waste and savings. Limit your carbon impact with linerless materials that are certified CarbonNeutral® by Climate Impact Partners.

Advantages of Linerless

Environmental Benefits – traditional pressure-sensitive labels come with a siliconized backing material called a release liner, which will be thrown away once the label is applied to a product or package. By removing the liner, which ends up in landfill, is an immediate win.

Generate Less Waste & Reduce your Carbon Footprint – Linerless can be cut to any length, lowering material costs by reducing the need to stock a variety of label material and consolidating your stock-keeping units. The printer will cut the label length required based on the amount of print- optimizing the use of label rolls with minimal waste.

Increase Uptime – there are more labels per roll with linerless labels compared to traditional linered labels. Printed labels can be applied faster and with more labels per roll you’re reducing the need for roll changes. Combining the ability to print different label sizes, linerless printing allows for different content to be printed more efficiently, without having to change over to different label media.
