The Best way to stop label peeling & fading – Cosmo Films’ IML Labels

We all will agree that brand integrity depends not just on great design but on durability and presentation. For brands dealing with label peeling, fading, or tearing, the best solution is In-Mould Label (IML) by Cosmo Films. We’ve engineered a range of IML films designed to elevate packaging performance, aesthetics, and sustainability.

IML films become an integral part of the container during the moulding process itself, which helps create a durable, scratch-resistant, and visually premium surface. It withstands moisture, friction, and environmental stress, and our IML films are specifically designed for PP and PE containers.
