Release Liners for Labels

Silicone-coated paper and PET film liners for self-adhesive label production.
Label Applications


For a self-adhesive label, the release liner is the backing removed before application. It carries the adhesive-coated facestock through lamination, die-cutting and dispensing. HENGMU supplies paper and PET liners selected around the label construction and converting equipment.
  • Paper labels

    Paper liners provide the backing for adhesive coating, lamination and die-cutting of paper labelstock.
  • Film labels

    Liners for film labels must match the facestock, cutting tolerances and any optical registration requirements.
  • Automatic Labelling

    Consistent label dispensing requires the liner, adhesive and label stiffness to work together at the intended line speed.
  • Key Selection Factors
    More+

    Liner Thickness

    Actual caliper affects die settings and cutting depth. Specify thickness alongside basis weight when comparing paper liners.

    Cutting and Dispensing

    Check matrix stripping, backing damage and label separation using the finished label construction and intended equipment.

    Release Performance

    Match release force to the adhesive and application. Define peel speed, angle, dwell time and ageing conditions when comparing results.

    Glassine and SCK

    These dense paper backings are options for roll labelstock. Compare caliper and web handling alongside the die-cutting and dispensing behaviour of the finished label.

    CCK and PCK

    Clay-coated and poly-coated paper structures provide additional backing choices. Use laminate flatness, format and processing requirements to determine which grade to trial.

    PET Film

    A PET backing may suit label constructions with specified film thickness or optical requirements. The chosen colour and surface must work with the registration equipment.

  • Application FAQs
    More+

    How do I choose between paper and PET liners?

    Start with the label structure and converting process. Compare thickness, handling, registration and dispensing requirements, then test the proposed liner with your adhesive and facestock.

    Does higher basis weight improve die-cutting?

    Higher basis weight alone does not ensure better cutting. Actual thickness, die condition and web tension affect the result. Inspect the liner for damage after cutting.

    Why does release force need defined test conditions?

    Release results depend on the adhesive, peel speed, angle and contact time. Use agreed conditions so samples and production batches can be compared meaningfully.

  • Discuss Your Label Construction
