Anatomy of a Self-Adhesive Label
Every self-adhesive label consists of three core layers. The right combination is determined by your product's usage conditions, application method and aesthetic requirements.
Choose the most suitable face material for your application. Each material offers a different balance of durability, appearance and cost.
Coated Paper
The most widely used material in label production. Offers rich color density with gloss and matte coating options. An economical and effective solution for indoor and dry environment applications.
Vellum (Uncoated Paper)
Ideal for brands seeking a natural, uncoated surface with a kraft or organic look. Its compatibility with desktop printers also makes it a versatile option.
PP Film (Polypropylene)
Offers high resistance to water, moisture and tearing. Available in gloss white, matte white and clear options. The go-to choice for bathroom, kitchen and outdoor products.
PE Film (Polyethylene)
A soft, conformable film that adapts to flexible and squeezable packaging. Applies without wrinkling on tubes, bottles and flexible containers.
Thermal Paper & Film
Label materials compatible with direct thermal (DT) and thermal transfer (TT) printers. Provides fast and practical printing for barcode, price and logistics labels.
Selecting the right adhesive type based on application surface and conditions is the foundation of label performance.
Permanent Adhesive
Standard adhesive that bonds permanently after application. Meets the vast majority of general labeling requirements.
Removable Adhesive
Leaves no residue when removed. Ideal for promotional labels, window stickers and temporary applications.
Freezer-Grade Adhesive
Superior bonding on cold and frozen surfaces. Developed for deep-freeze products, cold chain logistics and icy packaging.
Label Types
Structural label solutions for different requirements
Choose the most suitable label structure for your product's packaging form and information needs.
Die-Cut Label
Standard square, rectangular or custom-shaped die-cut labels. The most common label form, used across all industries. Offers fast production and economical unit cost.
Wrap-Around Label
Full-wrap labels that encircle bottles or jars completely. The 360° print area allows you to showcase branding and product information across a wide surface.
Booklet Label
Multi-page booklet-format labels. Used when extensive information space is needed for pharmaceutical, chemical and multilingual products. Large content capacity on small packaging.
Coupon / Peel-Off Label
Dual-layer labels with a removable top layer. Can carry promotional coupons, discount codes or contest information. An effective tool for marketing campaigns.
Clear (No-Label Look)
Printed on clear PP or PET film to create a seamless look with the product. Creates a "no-label" perception for premium brands, highlighting packaging aesthetics.
Security Label
Tamper-evident labels that leave a "VOID" mark or custom pattern when removed. Used to protect product authenticity, prevent counterfeiting and track warranties.
