Let’s break down a few real-world examples where Avery Dennison’s material science makes the difference:
Cold Chain Durability
Insulin pens and injectable biologics often require sub-zero storage and transport. Standard adhesives fail here, leading to label curl or peel-off.
Our Solution: Avery Dennison’s pharma-grade adhesives are engineered for cold chain performance—remaining intact and legible even at -20°C, with no compromise on adhesion or barcode scanability.
Low Migration Adhesives
Sensitive drug formulations can interact with packaging materials, risking contamination.
Our Solution: Our low-migration adhesive technologies ensure no harmful leaching into the medicine. This protects drug integrity and complies with EU and USFDA safety regulations.
RFID-Enabled Track and Trace
With rising counterfeits, supply chain visibility is no longer optional.
Our Solution: Avery Dennison’s ultra-thin RFID inlays are designed to fit compact surfaces—like vials and pen devices—without affecting label flexibility or scan performance. These smart labels allow for serialized tracking, inventory optimization, and patient-level verification.
Tamper-Evident Constructions
A broken seal, a missing void mark—sometimes, that’s the only cue a product has been compromised.
Our Solution: From breakable constructions to seal-through closures, our labels offer visible tamper-evidence without compromising aesthetics or production speed.
Inspection-Optimized Surfaces
High-speed converting lines and vision systems need labels that cooperate—not clog the process.
Our Solution: Our specialty facestocks and coatings are optimized for machine vision—ensuring barcodes and variable data remain sharp, scannable, and compliant at high throughput speeds.
