A portfolio of Creaset and Metalvac papers designed to deliver reliable converting performance and more responsible solutions for labelling.
Strong shelf appeal, reliable performance on high-speed bottling lines and more responsible material choices are key requirements in today’s wet-glue label market. Lecta’s complete portfolio of specialty papers addresses these needs, offering solutions designed to deliver consistent quality, excellent print performance and outstanding visual impact across a wide range of applications.
The portfolio includes white and metallized papers for wet-glue labels used in beverages, food products, hygiene items and cleaning products. From everyday consumer goods to premium brands, these papers are engineered to ensure excellent printability, smooth runnability and efficient ink drying during printing and converting processes. Their reliable behaviour also supports precise die-cutting, embossing and consistent performance during gluing and labelling operations.
The range is structured around two complementary brands:
Creaset, the one-side coated paper range, offers excellent printability and remarkable visual quality, available in gloss and high-gloss finishes. It is ideal for standard and wraparound labels and includes grease-resistant solutions for food labelling (without added PFAS), as well as high wet strength and alkali-resistant grades developed for returnable bottles, ensuring durability, strong ink adhesion and optimized wash-off performance.
Metalvac, the metallized paper range, enhances shelf impact with distinctive metallic finishes that help brands stand out and reinforce premium positioning. Widely used for beers, wines, spirits and other high-end beverages, it includes solutions for both one-way and returnable bottles, compatible with UV-curing inks and designed to perform reliably even in demanding high-moisture environments.
Combining visual differentiation with reliable converting and labelling performance, Creaset and Metalvac products enable brands to enhance product presentation while maintaining operational efficiency throughout the packaging process.
More than a paper offering, it represents a complete solution for wet-glue labelling — bringing together creativity, industrial reliability and responsible development.
Designed to optimize efficiency and resource use, Lecta portfolio supports streamlined production, consistent material performance and reduced waste during printing and conversion, while helping improve the efficient use of raw materials and energy throughout the value chain. Responsible labels also mean ensuring durability, stability and process reliability — so labels perform exactly as intended, from production line to end use.
Because in wet-glue labelling, performance matters. And impact is visible on every shelf.
