What are Labels?

 

Labels are small pieces of packaging material, often adhesive-backed, used for identification, marking, or providing information about a product, object, or container. They come in various shapes, sizes, and materials, depending on their intended use. Labels serve several purposes, including branding, organizing, providing instructions, promoting products or events, and conveying important details to consumers or users.

Our labels are available in two types: sheet and thermal.

 

Sheet Labels

 

Sheet Labels are pre-cut adhesive labels that come in the form of individual labels or multiple labels arranged on standard-sized sheets. These labels are designed for printing using standard office printers, such as inkjet printers, laser printers, and photocopiers. Sheet labels are versatile and commonly used for various applications in homes, offices, and industries.

Thermal Labels

 

Thermal Labels are specifically designed for use with thermal printers, which use heat to apply images directly onto the label material. Thermal printing is a popular method for producing labels quickly and efficiently, especially in commercial and industrial settings.

Our thermal labels are available in two types, based on the kind of printer they are compatible with: direct thermal and thermal transfer.

 

Direct Thermal Labels

 

Direct Thermal Labels are printed by Direct Thermal Printers, which heat the label paper as it passes by the print head. Wherever the heat was applied, the text appears. Direct thermal printers do NOT have a hot melt ink ribbon. When scratched, the scratch marks on the label will turn black from the friction.
