Removable labels or Permanent labels?

Newcomers to labels might wonder about permanent and removable labels and if they have to pick one.\xa0

When I just enter this label industry, I have totally identical questions like you guys. Basically, the permanent label is just regular labels that hard to be removed. The removable labels are special labels that easily be removed without leaving residual that widely used on food and clothing industry.

\xa0What is Label Adhesives\xa0

Labels that stick to surfaces use specific adhesives, which vary based on needs. Two main adhesive types exist: permanent and removable. The materials for each can also differ. Choosing depends on label purpose, adhesive type needed, and label lifespan.

\xa0What Is Permanent Adhesive Labels\xa0

The most common label type is the permanent adhesive label, often more budget-friendly. These labels aren't easy to remove and may get damaged by solvents during removal. It's wise to be certain about the label's placement beforehand. They work well on materials like films, corrugated board, and non-polar surfaces.

\xa0What Is Removable Adhesive Labels\xa0

Removable labels work well when a temporary label is needed and can be used in different situations. They use a special adhesive that sticks firmly to surfaces but lets you remove the label without leaving any residue or causing damage. These labels are handy for temporary information, like on reusable containers, price tags, or promotions. They're a bit more costly to make than permanent labels.

Permanent labels or removable labels: how to choose?

1. Are you using labels temporarily for prices, promotions, or instructions? Opt for removable labels. Customers wouldn't want sticky residue on their new vase after removing the price tag!

2. For outdoor or extreme conditions, choose permanent labels—they last longer. Our permanent labels have strong adhesive to withstand anything.

3. If labels encounter cleaning products, our film labels resist, but permanent ones offer more resistance.

4.\xa0 Need freezer-safe labels? Choose permanent film labels that resist -40°C. Removable plastic labels only resist up to -10°C, and freezers are usually -18°C.

5. For reusable or returnable containers, go for removable paper or plastic labels—they're easy to remove.
