With increasing concern about waste and climate change, many businesses are looking for ways to make their processes more eco-friendly. SmartSolve pressure sensitive label stock provides a simple way for businesses to reduce their waste footprint, while still providing attractive labeling for their products.
Unlike traditional labels, SmartSolve’s water soluble label stock has the advantage of dissolving in water. Our labels are comprised of sustainable and non-toxic materials; they can disperse almost instantly based on the amount of water exposure. Made from a unique combination of wood pulp and a special kind of cellulose, water soluble label stock presents a print surface which allows for endless varieties of customized printing.
