Self-Adhesive Labels

  • Self-adhesive labels, also known as pressure-sensitive labels, are a type of label that adheres to surfaces without the need for water, heat, or other solvents. They consist of three main layers: the face material (the printable top layer), the adhesive layer, and the release liner (the backing paper that protects the adhesive until use). This type of label is widely used in the printing industry due to its versatility and ease of application.

    • Product Labeling: Used extensively in packaging for branding, information, and compliance labeling on products in various industries like food, beverage, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals.

    • Shipping and Logistics: Used for address labels, barcode labels, and tracking labels in warehouses and distribution centers.
