A UNIQUE SUCCESS STORY CENTRED ON FASSON SELF-ADHESIVE LABELSTOCK
Leiden, The Netherlands - Vox Artes Gráficas is certainly one of Portugal's leading label converters. For the label industry, it is a relatively large company, with around 118 employees currently housed in a 7000m2 facility in Vila Nova de Gaia, near Porto. What distinguishes Vox, however, is its specialism in labels for wines and, of course, port – a market where quality and service are key factors, and print runs usually small. Vox meets these criteria with a series of innovative, 'best practice' solutions that aptly demonstrate how focusing on one particular market niche, and doing it well, can represent a highly-successful business model today in the packaging industry.

SABIC Innovative Plastics expanded its LNP* Faradex* Compounds to Boost EMI/RFI Shielding of Electronics
BERGEN OP ZOOM, The Netherlands – February 15, 2008 – SABIC Innovative Plastics today announced the expansion of its LNP* Faradex* family of specialty compounds to help electronics manufacturers achieve lighter-weight, thinner-wall housings with enhanced shielding capability. SABIC Innovative Plastics’ new LNP Faradex compounds can deliver better electromagnetic interference/radio frequency interference (EMI/RFI) shielding performance without increasing their loading of stainless steel fibers, thereby keeping costs and part weight down. Proprietary filler technology not only improves inherent shielding capability of existing loadings, but also increases modulus to enable strong and durable thin-wall parts. The addition of the new LNP Faradex compounds provides customers with an even broader range of EMI/RFI shielding performances and physical properties to help meet customer requirements.

AVERY DENNISON PROVIDES SWEDISH POST WITH A NEW LAYER OF SECURITY WITH FASSON LABELSTOCK
Leiden, The Netherlands - Avery Dennison has provided Posten AB, Sweden’s national postal carrier, with an innovative Fasson self-adhesive solution to a major postage stamp authentication challenge. Posten AB is a dynamic, technologically advanced supplier of mail, communication and logistics services, and its security printing division, Sweden Post Stamps, has an international reputation for high-quality print results, with high-security features. As well as traditional gummed and perforated stamp products, Posten AB also issues self-adhesive stamps. To print these on Sweden Post Stamps' sophisticated intaglio machines would entail a costly extra press pass for the necessary overt security feature of a backing paper imprint. It made sense, therefore, to look for an alternative leading-edge authentication device for the self-adhesive stamps that would make it possible to continue printing them on a multicolour offset press, but with the added advantage of a special 'high tech' security feature to foil the efforts of the counterfeiters.
