About Talis Haftetiketten
Talis Haftetiketten GmbH & Co. KG was founded in 1985 in Tönisvorst near Krefeld and manufactures self-adhesive roll labels for customers in Germany and other European countries. The modern machinery fleet comprises rotary printing presses with up to 12 printing stations in UV flexo, offset and screen printing combinations as well as digital printing presses (HP Indigo, toner). The company offers a high level of vertical integration: from printing advice and a complete in-house prepress department with data checking, data processing and in-house production of printing forms (stereos, offset plates, screens) through to production, finishing and warehousing. Finishing options include foil stamping, embossing and debossing (2D/3D), laminates, coatings and die-cutting. Substrates include paper, film and special composites, some FSC-certified; adhesives are selected per application as permanent, removable, resealable or water-soluble. Around 100 employees produce in shift operation for industries such as cosmetics, chemicals, food and consumables, beverages/spirits and logistics. The company produces with 100 % green electricity and climate-neutral gas and offers climate-neutral production via climatePartner.
