Avery Dennison will present a series of new labelling materials and technologies at Labelexpo Europe 2025, with a focus on packaging reuse, recycling and product protection.

The company will showcase an expanded AD CleanGlass portfolio, including a new white film option developed for reusable glass packaging. Both white and clear versions are designed to wash off easily in a conventional bottle washer at 80°C, supporting brand reuse targets.

Also on display will be AD CleanFiber, described as the first INGEDE12-certified paper label range using a new adhesive technology that cleanly separates during the recycling process, delivering higher quality pulp for cardboard and paper production.

In its premium lines, Avery Dennison will debut the Infinity Collection, a label portfolio designed to support complex die-cutting and finishing while maintaining reliable performance. The Sensorial Collection is being extended with materials such as Leatherlike Black, Limestone and rWood Skin, while the Sustainable Collection now includes Lin Fibre alongside Hemp Fibre and Cane Fibre.

For the automotive and durable goods sectors, Avery Dennison is introducing PET labels with chemically recycled content, developed to meet original equipment manufacturer requirements. These can incorporate features such as flame retardancy for electric vehicle batteries, and can be combined with RFID technology to support traceability.

In pharmaceuticals, the company will present a UV Barrier film label range that protects medicines sensitive to UV light while maintaining transparency. Avery Dennison says the clear labels allow healthcare professionals to visually check contents without compromising protection.

Mariana Rodriguez, vice president and general manager, materials group EMENA at Avery Dennison, said, “Labelexpo 2025 will be a major showcase of innovation, and we can’t wait for customers to see it in person. Avery Dennison has been pioneering the labelling and packaging sector for 90 years, and in Barcelona we will demonstrate how we are helping to address key challenges across industries including consumer packaged goods, retail, automotive and pharmaceuticals.”

Food & Drink Business

A lot of food and beverage brands look strong when they’re small. They have one product, one pack, one clear idea and then they grow. That’s usually when things start to unravel, not all at once, but quickly enough to matter. The Creative Method founder and creative director, Tony Ibbotson, explains why – and growth is not the problem. 

Victorian-based Aquafab has completed a $620,000 Series A raise through Birchal, supported by over 300 investors. The company told Food & Drink Business that the funds will support continued national growth and plans in place to enter the US and UK markets this year.

Rumin8 is accelerating its methane reducing feed additive commercialisation progress in New Zealand, garnering $4.4 million (US$3 million) in investment as the company prepares to enter the final trial process.
