New Nestle Flavored Milk Products In Alcoa Packaging Shrink Labels Shake Things Up in Canadian Market
Nestle's Coffee-Mate® line of non-dairy creamers, as well as Nestle's Nesquik®, Rolo® and CoffeeCrisp® Ready-To-Drink (RTD) flavored milk beverages, were recently introduced in the Canadian market. Each of these products is dressed in an Alcoa Packaging shrink label.
Alcoa Packaging, the shrink label manufacturer responsible for the multitude of U.S. Nesquik and Coffee-Mate shrink labels, was a natural choice for this geographic extension. "By being the supplier to the largest line of flavored milk and non-dairy products in the U.S. and by implementing continuous improvement throughout the manufacturing process, Alcoa is a proven leader in the printed shrink label industry," stated Terry Copenhaver, Commercial Manager, Alcoa Packaging. To maintain this status and to service the increasing customer demand, Alcoa Packaging continually streamlines its manufacturing process with reduced lead-times and increased innovation.
The Nestle Canadian products are bottled in HDPE containers with the same unique shapes recognized in the U.S. market. The printing, however, conveys a more unique, hip image, particularly on the Nesquik, Rolo and CoffeeCrisp products. All of the Nestle Canadian shrink labels are rotogravure reverse printed at Alcoa Packaging's Downingtown Printing Plant in Downingtown, Pennsylvania using 50 micron PETG film.
Alcoa Packaging, based in Richmond, Virginia, manufactures a variety of packaging materials including extrusion and adhesive laminated pouch materials, overwraps and linerstock, blister lidding foil, thermoformed trays, cable wrap, plastic shrink sleeve body labels, shrink film and laminated foil.
