            Web unwinding

            A large roll of face material, paper or film, is placed on an unwind system.
            2

            Printing

            The substrate goes through one or multiple flexo printing stations. Alternatively, an unsupported pre-printed face material may also be used, eliminating the printing step.
            3

            Silicone coating

            A UV-curable silicone release coating is applied on top of the face material, acting as the release liner.
            4

            Adhesive coating

            Pressure-sensitive adhesive (hotmelt, UV-curable hotmelt, water-based) is applied on the underside of the face material.
            5

            Slitting

            The roll is slitted into narrower rolls.

            What clients are saying about LinerO

            LinerO offers all the innovation you need to build your product portfolio, attract new clients
            and tap into the fast-growing linerless label market.
            Before purchasing our ETI LinerO, the ETI team visited our facility to understand some of the struggles we were having with our current coating machine. They also wanted to know about the specific things our customers were asking for and interested in from a business perspective. This information was shared with their engineers and used to custom design our new ETI Coater. Some of the benefits of the new design include a reduction in the amount of consumables needed, the ability to hold much tighter tolerances, and pattern coating adhesive which is new to our market. We also love the reliability of the machine and how easy it is to operate. Its been a beneficial relationship and we are happy to be partners with ETI.
