2023-12-25

Self-adhesive labels are composed of a five-layer structure. From top to bottom, they are facestock, bottom coating, adhesive, silicone coating, and base paper. In the five-layer structure of self-adhesive labels, the type of facestock and the type of adhesive mainly affect the suitability of the self-adhesive material, and are also important considerations when selecting materials.

The surface materials of self-adhesive label materials mainly include high-gloss paper, semi-high-gloss paper, matte paper and other types according to their glossiness.
1. High-Gloss Paper
High-gloss paper mainly refers to mirror-coated paper. This paper is based on coated paper or coated board with different gram weights. It can be used to print labels for high-end products, such as labels for high-end health care products.
2. Semi-High-Gloss Paper
Semi-high gloss paper is also coated paper. The color and brightness of the label after printing is also relatively high. It is widely used in the packaging of commodities such as the pharmaceutical industry and detergents. If the surface is glazed after printing, the gloss can basically reach the effect of mirror coated paper.
3. Matte Paper
Matte paper includes offset paper, matt coated paper, heat transfer printing paper and thermal paper, etc., and self-adhesive labels of this type of surface material are usually used for monochrome printing or printing.

Adhesives can also be divided into permanent and removable according to the usage characteristics.
Permanent adhesive refers to an adhesive that is difficult to peel off the label as a whole without damaging the surface of the label. This type of adhesive is mainly used for alcohol, daily chemical products and anti-counterfeiting labels.
Removable adhesives refer to adhesives whose self-adhesive labels can be completely peeled off without damaging the bonded surface. This type of adhesive can be used for labels on products such as spectacle lenses.
