Choosing the correct label material for your products can be quite confusing. So we have put together this guide to help you understand the various types of materials available to help give you a better understanding:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Paper<\/strong><\/p>\n

Paper labels are commonly used for barcodes, promotions and to be applied direct to product. They offer\u00a0good value for money and have a number of different finishes to add to their appeal to provide additional protection.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Vinyl<\/strong><\/p>\n

Vinyl labels are a popular and cost effective method labelling products. The vinyl can be\u00a0cut to any shape\u00a0or\u00a0size\u00a0and can easily be\u00a0laminated\u00a0to enhance the appearance.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Polyethylene<\/strong><\/p>\n

Polyethylene is a material that is both\u00a0durable\u00a0and\u00a0pliable\u00a0and is ideally suited for product packaging as it offers a\u00a0greater tear and scratch resistance than a paper material and can easily adhere to curved surfaces. Polyethylene labels are commonly used in the pharmaceutical, food manufacturing, and global distribution industries.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Polypropylene<\/strong><\/p>\n

Polypropylene labels are\u00a0tear proof, waterproof, durable and moisture resistant. Often used for products such as shower gels and other various body care products due to their durability and ability to continue to perform in harsh environments.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Polyester<\/strong><\/p>\n

Polyester labels are used in all manner of applications from asset labels to product identification. Polyester is a highly durable material and boats excellent resistance to chemicals, temperature and humidity.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Ultra-Destructive<\/strong><\/p>\n

Designed\u00a0so that once they are applied they cannot be removed. Ultra-Destructive labels are used to\u00a0discourage tampering\u00a0or theft of products or items. Once applied these labels\u00a0cannot be removed in one piece\u00a0as they are\u00a0designed to break-up when\u00a0tampered\u00a0with. They are often found on electronic equipment or tools and machinery.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Void\/Tamper Evident<\/strong><\/p>\n

Void \/ tamper evident labels can be\u00a0placed over seals\u00a0and closures to\u00a0guard against unauthorised access, used on electrical equipment or on everyday items such as food products. In addition to this they are also widely used in the retail industry to protect against theft and tampering of packaged items.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
