Quadrel Labeling Systems has a long and rich history in the pressure sensitive label application market. Our start goes all the way back to the very early days of what was then new emerging technology
How Quadrel Started
Quadrel came into existence a few years after Stan Avery invented the concept of Pressure sensitive adhesive in a basic peel and stick format. Mr. Avery knew that he could not hold this exciting new technology exclusively. Although Avery Label was growing and quite successful he began getting requests from printers across the country for unprinted pressure sensitive base material. In the mid 1950’s he started a spin off company he named Fasson (Fasten-on).
Fasson came into existence to sell unprinted pressure sensitive base material to established printers originally in sheet form and soon after in rolls.
Further it soon became obvious that if this new technology was going to make in road into prime labeling a delivery system would need to be invented to allow Pressure sensitive as a main stream product decoration technology.
At this point in time the early 1960’s in when Fasson machine systems (now Quadrel Labeling Systems) came into existence.
Initially these label application machines were simple and used primarily in dairy and simple food applications.
Advantages of Quadrel Labeling Systems
As the many advantages of Pressure sensitive technology became more known Fasson began to pick up momentum. This all took place up until the late 1970’s.
One of the first big events that propelled Fasson machine systems to national prominence was unfortunately the Tylenol scare of 1982. This was when in the metropolitan Chicago area several people died as a result of cyanide capsules being added to containers of Tylenol.
Fasson machine Systems designed and built a tamper evident labeling system. This system applied a non-removable label to cartons or containers of over the counter medication that would show immediate evidence if it had been tampered with.
Fasson Machine Systems produced hundreds of these tamper evident systems for over the counter pharmaceutical manufacturers around the world.
