In-mold Graphic Solutions

Over the past decade, in-mold decorating has surged throughout Europe and the United States. By eliminating the secondary decorating application, it has allowed companies to become leaner.

Romo developed an in-mold label product line - In-mold Graphic Solutions - in response to customers complaining about scrap caused by secondary decoration (pad printing, decals, hot stamping, etc.).

We design in-mold material, inks, and coatings for polyolefin/polypropylene, nylon, and ABS resins. We specialize in projects that require durability over time in outdoor environments.

 

Here's why we like in-mold products:
  • Reduce labor cost associated with secondary operations like decal application, hot stamping, heat transfer, and pad printing.
  • Enhance product appearance and better brand recognition.
  • Automatic one-step process eliminates cycle time for products that go through multiple operations.
  • Eliminate undesirable profile.
  • Minimize scrap associated with complex decorating processes.
  • Extended durability by fusing graphic to resin.
  • Injection and compression molding process.

 

Our customers mold:
  • Medical waste containers
  • Recycling containers
  • Buckets and storage
  • Outdoor furniture
  • Lawn and garden equipment
