What this construction is

BOPP is a biaxially oriented polypropylene film. Orienting it in both directions is what gives the film its stiffness and its dimensional stability, so a thin BOPP label still lies flat on the pack and still feeds reliably at line speed. It is waterproof, it does not tear the way paper does, and it accepts a topcoat that lets UV and water-based inks key to the surface instead of sitting on it.

Underneath it sits water-based permanent acrylic adhesive. The liner is a glassine — a supercalendered paper with a dense, closed surface. Glassine releases cleanly at high converting speeds, it is the cheapest liner that does the job, and it is the default for roll-fed work.

This construction sits in the Memjet family, which we build for Memjet-based inkjet presses and print engines. The family grouping is not marketing shorthand — it is how the topcoat is chosen.

Where it earns its place

General-purpose paper and film labels

A water-based acrylic system is the default when the job does not call for anything exotic: it prints well, converts cleanly and keeps the odour profile low compared with solvent systems.

Work with a lower-odour requirement

Where the printed label sits close to the consumer, or the converter runs a tight plant with limited extraction, a water-based adhesive is usually the easier conversation with the customer.

Mixed paper and film programmes

One adhesive system across a paper and a film facestock keeps a multi-SKU programme simple to specify, stock and convert.

When to choose something else

Immersion and wash-off

Prolonged water contact sits outside the design envelope of a standard water-based acrylic.

Very oily substrates

Oil on the surface prevents the adhesive from wetting out; test before running production.

Press set-up for non-absorbent stock

BOPP does not absorb ink the way paper does. The press needs its tension, heat and ink settings confirmed for film before the first production run.

Why Memjet needs its own coating

Memjet engines fire a very wide page-width array at high speed, which puts two demands on the facestock that other inkjet platforms do not: the coating has to dry fast enough that the print can be rewound immediately, and it has to be uniform across the full width, because a page-width head shows up any variation as a band rather than as a small defect.

Constructions in this family are coated and finished for that profile. If you are running a Memjet engine and the print looks weak, the conversation is usually about the topcoat rather than the film.

How MJ0802W21 sits inside the Pearl White PP series

The Pearl White PP series holds 3 constructions in our catalogue. They share the same facestock family, so the differences that matter are adhesive system and liner — and those two decide which jobs each code wins.

The same facestock on another press

Buyers often ask the reverse question: the construction works, but the press changes. These are the codes in other families built on the same facestock type.

Questions buyers ask before ordering

Answered from the construction data, not from a brochure.

What exactly is MJ0802W21?
MJ0802W21 is a BOPP film facestock — 60mic Pearl white BOPP film — coated with water-based acrylic adhesive and supplied on 80gsm Glassine Liner. It belongs to the Memjet family, which we build for Memjet-based inkjet presses and print engines.
Which printing process should I run it on?
The Memjet family is specified for Memjet-based inkjet presses and print engines. If your press is not on that list, send us the model and we will tell you honestly whether this construction is the right one or whether another family fits better.
What is the minimum order and the lead time?
One thousand square metres is the standard minimum for a stock construction, in jumbo roll, slit roll or sheet form depending on the family. Stock items normally ship 15 to 25 days after order confirmation. A4 samples are free — you cover the courier only.
Can I get the technical data sheet before I commit?
Yes. The TDS for MJ0802W21 lists the measured values for the actual production lot, and we send it with the samples. We deliberately do not print performance figures on the website: the number that matters is the one measured on the material you will receive, not a catalogue average.
