Adhesive Labels – Getting Started

Appearing simple at first, adhesive labels are deceivingly complex creatures. Much more than mere “stickers”, labels are designed to carry information. Whether this info is expressed through a barcode or written text, the label’s main purpose is to create a smooth flow of information transfer for any operation.

The goal is to simplify, removing the effort, time, and expense involved with handwriting and human error. A label’s composition is made up of four distinct layers, and our extensive range of materials allows for a custom combination suitable for your label application. Whether preprinted or specially crafted by The Label Experts, why not learn about how labels can serve you?
