Do you want Permanent Label or Removable Label?

The most prevalent kind of label is the permanent adhesive label, which can be more economical. These labels are designed to be non-removable, and removing them usually necessitates the use of specific solvents that can damage the label in the process. As a result, it is recommended that you are sure of where you want to apply the label before doing so. Permanent adhesive labels are suitable for use on materials such as films, corrugated board, and non-polar surfaces.

Removable labels are an ideal solution when a temporary label is required and can be utilized in various contexts. They consist of a specialized adhesive that adheres firmly enough to the surface material, but also allows the label to be removed without leaving residue or causing any damage. Removable labels are particularly useful for providing temporary information, such as changing prices for items like stock.

The majority of labels and stickers are typically produced using permanent adhesive, which is less expensive than removable adhesive and forms a strong bond with most surfaces. These labels cannot be easily removed and require soaking, scraping, or another method of removal.

Permanent adhesive labels are useful for several purposes:

B randing product labels that remain on boxes and shelves without curling or peeling is perfect use of permanent labels because you need to make sure your brand is always on your customers’ eyes.

A sset tracking and security labels that protect expensive equipment and food items.

S hipping labels that keep packages secure during transit is another great usage. In order to make sure you packages deliver to your customers, you need to make sure bar code and shipping information on labels are scanable and readable instead of missing.

W arning and safety label s are also suitable that are widely used on good and drug industries. You don’t want staff create accidents because warning labels peel off.

Removable labels can be easily peeled off without leaving residue or causing damage to the packaging. It's important to note that both permanent and removable adhesives tend to increase their bonding strength over time. This means that if items are stored for a long period, a removable label may become more difficult to remove. The removability of a label depends on the condition of the applied surface and the storage environment of the container.

If you sell products like candles where customers may want to reuse the containers, removable labels are a perfect choice. However, if you offer lower-priced items and are not concerned about customers needing to remove bottle labels, permanent labels may be more suitable.

Removable adhesive labels are well-suited for:

Product labels and price tags that customers don't want on display items like flower pots or picture frames. Otherwise your customer may get mad when struggling to remove permanent labels with residual and damaged labels.

M edical charts and specimens that require frequent updating because you may need to keep recording the test result.

Production: Where stickers are commonly applied to items like apples or oranges, removable labels are necessary as they must be removed before consumption.

Recyclable or reusable containers: Sustainable containers are increasingly popular. For example, if you’re selling a line of salsas in Mason jars, many customers are likely to reuse the jar. Removable adhesive labels make that easier. Additionally, green packaging and recyclable options often require label removal before processing. Providing removable adhesive labels and helping people live better is simply good customer service.

R eusable  or r ecyclable   containers, such as those used for sustainable packaging or Mason jars for salsas, removable adhesive labels make it easier for customers to reuse the containers or for green packaging that requires label removal during processing. Providing removable adhesive labels aligns with good customer service and supports a better customer experience.
