YUPO IML grades provide an opportunity for brand differentiation.

These grades provide the opportunity for brand differentiation as well as flexibility for package design. A YUPO IML substrate will integrate with a bottle for a no-label look and feel, and will resist moisture, chemicals and scratching. It also offers superior resistance to scoffing, gouging and blistering, and superior graphics on both large and small bottles.

With YUPO IML there is no peeling, flagging or curling associated with post-mold labels and the consumer cannot remove the label, meeting many safety regulations. It is a superior packaging option for filled squeeze bottles as it is pre-optimized and requires no adhesive coating.
