Labels Solutions for logistics and shipping

Label solutions for logistics and transport are critical for efficient tracking, handling, and compliance in supply chain operations.

Durable and Weather-Resistant Labels

• Materials: Labels used in logistics and transport need to withstand harsh conditions such as moisture, heat, cold, and abrasion. Durable materials like synthetic films (e.g., polypropylene or polyester) are often used, as they resist tearing, fading, and environmental wear.

• Adhesives: Strong, permanent adhesives are essential to ensure the labels stay affixed to packages, pallets, and containers despite handling and exposure to different temperatures​

Cold-chain Logistics

• Cold-Resistant Adhesives: Labels used in frozen logistics need adhesives that can maintain their stickiness at low temperatures (down to -40°C or even lower). Acrylic-based adhesives are typically favored for their ability to remain effective in cold environments​.

• Moisture-Resistant Materials: Waterproof and Ice-Proof Labels. Freeze logistics often involve condensation, moisture, and frost, so labels must be resistant to water and ice buildup. Synthetic films like polypropylene (PP) or polyester (PET) are commonly used for these purposes. These materials prevent label degradation and ensure the print remains legible

• Freezer-Safe RFID Labels: For cold-chain logistics, RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) labels can be used to track products through the freezing and transportation processes without the need for direct line-of-sight scanning. These RFID tags must be rugged enough to function under low temperatures, ensuring seamless integration into automated cold storage systems​

Barcode and RFID Labels

• Barcode Labels: Used for inventory management, barcodes are the most common method for tracking shipments and ensuring proper logistics handling. These can be easily scanned throughout the supply chain to track package location and status.

• RFID Labels: These are becoming more popular in logistics for real-time tracking without the need for direct line-of-sight scanning. RFID tags can store more data and improve efficiency in large-scale operations​
