It’s Easy to be Greener!

Green Bay Packaging’s thermal imaging paper facers are now Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) Certified.

 

From weigh scale and pharmacy labels to shipping and warehouse applications, our entire line of direct thermal and thermal transfer papers is now FSC certified.

 

These are the same products you know. There is no performance risk. No extra cost. No name or item number changes. Just the added sustainability.

 

Even if your company is not FSC certified, you can still offer a direct thermal or thermal transfer paper that has been sourced from responsibly managed forests. It’s an easy way to be green.

Great Adhesion, Yet Easy to Remove

Green Bay Packaging’s new ultra-removable microsphere adhesive (277) adheres to a wide range of difficult-to-stick-to smooth surfaces, including low-energy plastics, and non-stick coatings.

Yet it removes easily from almost any substrate. It can even be peeled from newspapers without fiber tear.

Designed for short-term labeling applications, 277 is a great choice for promotions, logistics, and pricing.

Because 277 is easy to remove, it can be paired with a wider variety of face stocks, including 054SG (Semi-Gloss) or VALUT (Value Thermal Transfer).

Hemp Paper: Distinctive and Sustainable

A Natural Look for Cannabis Labeling and More!

Green Bay Packaging’s new Hemp Paper (1HEMP) is a 60# visually unique and sustainable facer, made with 25% hemp and 75% post-consumer waste.

GreenCycle™ Label Stocks for PET Recyclability

Increase the recyclability of PET containers with APR Critical Guidance Recognized pressure-sensitive label stocks from Green Bay Packaging

Green Bay Packaging received The Association of Plastic Recyclers’ (APR) Critical Guidance Recognition for two new pressure-sensitive label stocks. These label materials are part of the GreenCycle™ product line.
The two label structures are 1.85 mil clear (018CT) and 2.4 mil white BOPP (024TL) films combined with our polyethylene terephthalate (PET) recyclable adhesive, (776S). These GreenCycle™ label structures completely wash off from PET containers during recycling. This results in a cleaner PET flake for future use in recycled content products, ensuring plastic packaging’s place in a circular economy.

GreenCycle™ labels stocks are available trimless on our TIP program.
For a sample or more information, contact us. Visit us on the web to learn more about The APR Critical Guidance Recognition criteria and PET container recycling.

GBP is Considered A Critical Manufacturer

Today Wisconsin’s governor issued an executive order shutting down all non-essential businesses. This follows similar orders affecting other states and municipalities.

We want you to know that Green Bay Packaging is considered to be a Critical Manufacturer and will continue to operate. This applies to all our United States coating and slitting locations.

Green Bay Packaging’s products are essential parts of the manufacturing and distribution supply chains for food, healthcare, transportation, and other industries identified by the Department of Homeland Security as “Critical Infrastructure Industries.”

At Green Bay Packaging we take our role as a vital component of these supply chains seriously, and we will carry on our work on behalf of our customers, and the country, during this challenging time.

TIP Time Change

As we all adapt to the new requirements necessary for safety as a result of the Covid-19 virus, some of our employees are now working from home. Unfortunately, this is resulting in increased lead times for order entry. To address this, starting Monday, March 23, the cut-off time to order from our TIP program will move to 3:00 PM. (Time based on the location from which the shipment originates.)

Although we have made changes in how we are working, we are not changing why we are working – to provide the label materials you need to keep your presses running and your customers satisfied.

Your customer service representative can be reached as usual. Their regular phone numbers are forwarded to their homes, and they have access to their email and usual computer tools. Our manufacturing operations are working hard to fill your orders without interruption.

We regret any inconvenience this order cut-off time change may cause. We value the relationship that we have built with you. And we look forward to continuing to work together, through this unprecedented time, and beyond.
