Labels
A broad portfolio for durable and tamper-evident labels
Today's labels must meet a wide range of demanding requirements. Depending on the pigments and additives used, PLEXIGLAS® and EUROPLEX® films offer a variety of performance characteristics. They are available in finishes ranging from opaque to transparent, smooth or textured, and—with selected grades—approved for food contact. Depending on the grade, they are either:
- highly durable and robust for permanent labels used for branding, warnings, instructions, or traceability
- highly brittle for tamper-evident seals to protect brands and prevent product counterfeiting

Applications
Labels
Special function: This glossy, transparent and highly brittle acrylic film has been specifically developed for ultra-destructible security labels and tapes to protect against tampering. It is halogen-free, contains no plasticizers, is odorless and complies with the requirements of EU Regulation No. 10/2011. Thanks to its special polymer formulation, the film exhibits low elongation at break and high tear propagation, providing a unique security feature. Its extremely smooth surface ensures excellent print quality and enables a true "no-label look".
PLEXIGLAS® Film WF011
Properties

- high surface hardness
- very high brittleness
Applications
Labels
Special function: This white acrylic film, matte on one side and glossy on the other, is used as an extremely brittle film for security labels to produce ultra-destructible labels that protect against tampering. It is halogen-free, contains no plasticizers, is odorless and complies with the requirements of EU Regulation No. 10/2011. Thanks to its special polymer formulation, the film exhibits low elongation at break and high tear propagation, providing a unique security feature. It is weather- and UV-resistant without discoloration or yellowing and offers excellent printability with all common printing technologies.
EUROPLEX® Film 99710
Properties
- Thickness: 53 µm
- Very good weather resistance
- 10,000 h without visible changes (DIN EN ISO 4892-2)
- UV transmission (280–380 nm): ≤ 1.5%
Key Features
- excellent surface brilliance
- very high weather resistance
- easy processing
- high surface hardness
- very good chemical resistance
- dirt-repellent
- easy to clean
Applications
Labels with very high requirements for UV protection and chemical resistance.
Special function: This acrylic film provides exceptional label durability through outstanding protection against aging caused by UV exposure and chemical attack.
Particularly in security label applications, the film's durability contributes to process reliability. Labels on products and equipment are protected against contamination by the film's protective layer and can be cleaned more easily, ensuring permanent readability and visibility.
