Manufacturing Excellence

What is IML (In-Mould Labelling)?

In-mould labelling is the ultimate decoration technology for reusable cups. Unlike traditional printing, the label is placed directly into the injection moulding tool during the shaping process.

This causes the label to bond permanently with the cup, resulting in a finished product that is decorated and shaped in a single, efficient step.

Why IML is the #1 choice for festivals and stadiums:

• **Maximum Impact:** Design covers up to 99% of the cup with a 360° wrap.

• **Unlimited Detail:** Photographic quality with no limit on colours or gradients.

• **Indestructible:** The artwork won't peel, flake, or fade, even after hundreds of commercial dishwasher cycles.

• **Sustainable:** Both the cup and label are made of the same material (PP), making the entire unit 100% recyclable in a closed-loop system.

With our state-of-the-art UK production facility, Drinksmate ensures precision and speed for even the highest-volume stadium requirements.

Andrew Gourley

I ordered reusable cups for my event and they were perfect. Great quality, durable, and the printing looked amazing. Guests loved them and they were a much better eco-friendly alternative to disposable cups. The ordering process was smooth and delivery was quick. I’ll definitely be buying again for future events.
