Linerless Labels Solutions
Innovative, Sustainable & High-Performance Linerless Labels. UK Labels supplies high-quality Linerless label solutions designed to improve operational efficiency, reduce waste, and deliver reliable adhesive performance across a wide range of industries. Available as both stock and fully custom printed solutions, our Linerless labels are manufactured to meet demanding production, logistics, retail, and food packaging requirements.
What are Linerless Labels?
Linerless labels are self-wound labels manufactured without a traditional release liner, helping businesses reduce material waste while increasing the number of labels per roll. This provides:
- Reduced storage requirements
- Fewer roll changes
- Lower transport costs
- Improved sustainability
- Increased production efficiency
Our Linerless Printer Maintenance Guide covers essential maintenance and troubleshooting tips for reliable printing in Quick Service Restaurants (QSRs).

Acrylic Adhesive
Acrylic adhesives are water-based and provide excellent long-term performance, clarity, and environmental resistance.
Advantages:
- Excellent UV resistance
- Good resistance to ageing and yellowing
- Performs well in varying temperatures
- Strong adhesion to clean, smooth surfaces
- Good moisture and chemical resistance
- Suitable for long-term label applications
Typical Applications:

Hot Melt Adhesive
Hotmelt adhesives are rubber-based and designed to provide immediate, aggressive adhesion.
Advantages:
- Very high initial tack (“grab”)
- Excellent adhesion to difficult surfaces
- Performs well on corrugated cardboard
- Bonds quickly in automated application systems
- Effective on recycled packaging materials
- Good performance on rough and irregular surfaces
Typical Applications:
Stock & Custom Printed Labels
UK Labels offers:
- Plain stock linerless labels
- Custom printed linerless labels in up to 4 colours
Our custom print capabilities allow businesses to create fully branded, high-performance label solutions tailored to operational requirements

Manufacturing Excellence
Our Linerless Capabilities
For linerless labels, consistency is critical. From coating and converting through to printing, application and end use, every element needs to work together. Our dedicated linerless manufacturing capability, rigorous quality controls and ongoing R&D are focused on delivering consistent quality, reliable application performance and confidence throughout the life of the label.
Capabilities
Our Linerless manufacturing capability includes four dedicated coating and converting lines, designed and engineered specifically for the production of Linerless materials. Precision process controls help ensure consistent adhesive application, with additional capabilities including two-colour inline printing and inline slitting.
Quality
Quality is built into every stage of our linerless manufacturing process. From raw material evaluation and coating control through to finished-product testing, defined quality procedures help ensure consistent adhesive, release, print and converting performance. Our Linerless products undergo application-focused testing to assess performance throughout their intended life cycle. This can include adhesion and release testing, environmental conditioning, ageing and product-life evaluation, helping ensure reliable performance through conversion, printing and application to final end use.
Research & Development
Our Linerless capability is underpinned by ongoing research and development across adhesives, release systems and material performance. Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, we consider the interaction between adhesive, facestock, environment, release system, application surface and end-use environment to develop solutions for specific application requirements. Continuous development and product-life testing enable us to evaluate new adhesive technologies, materials and constructions, while continually enhancing the performance, consistency and reliability of our Linerless portfolio.
