Many of our clients find the process of ordering labels for industry quite overwhelming. With a variety of different media and finishing options to choose from, it’s not always straightforward to tell which type of label you require.
To simplify this process for you, here are the 5 key questions you should ask yourself in order to determine what type of label you require for your specific application:
Different surfaces require different adhesive strengths.
Smooth metal, glass and clean painted panels are usually easy to label with a standard adhesive. On the other hand, powder-coated metal, textured plastic, and rough painted surfaces often require a high-tack adhesive because standard adhesives may not grip well.
Low-energy plastic surfaces can also be quite tricky. These are often used on storage bins, moulded cases and industrial containers. For these surfaces, a specialist high-tack adhesive is normally the safer choice.
Indoor labels may only need to handle light cleaning, stock movement and daily use. For warehouse, asset, and barcode labels, polypropylene or polyester can work well.
For Outdoor labels that need to withstand rain, sunlight, dirt, cold, heat, and surface movement, we would normally recommend vinyl with an outdoor-grade adhesive and protective laminate overcoat.
Vinyl is often a good choice for outdoor plants, containers and equipment because it handles weather and movement well. Polyester is often better for long-term assets, machinery, and engineering labels that require a tougher finish.
Factories, workshops and engineering sites are tough conditions for labels to operate within. If the label is likely to be exposed to water, oil, grease, or regular cleaning, a laminated overcoat is typically recommended to maximise durability and longevity.
For chemical exposure, the exact chemical matters. Mild cleaners are very different from solvents or harsher industrial chemicals. For tougher jobs, specialist materials or overlaminates may be advised.
For high-temperature environments, high-temperature polyester or polyimide will likely be the best fit for heated machinery, engine bays, electrical equipment and production areas.
If your industrial product labels require variable data integration, they will need sharp print and good contrast. If the code is too small, scratched or printed on the wrong finish, it may not scan well.
For long-term scanning, finishing your label with a matt laminate is often a good choice. It gives clear print and reduces glare from warehouse lighting.
