What types of label paper are there? What's the difference?
Excellent Quality Label Paper includes: coated paper label; PET advanced label paper; PVC advanced label paper;Durable Thermal Paper; clothing tag; Best Quality Syntheic Paper.The difference lies in the name of the paper, the material, and the scope of application, etc.
1. Coated Paper Label It is a commonly used material for barcode printers, and its thickness is generally around 80g. Widely used in supermarkets, inventory management, clothing tags, industrial production lines and other places where coated paper labels are used more. Coated label paper has the best performance. Its white ultra-smooth uncoated paper is an excellent base material for thermal transfer printing. Scope of application: outer box labels, price labels, asset management records, ordinary home appliance body labels, etc. 2. PET Advanced Label Paper PET is the English abbreviation of polyester film, in fact it is a kind of polymer material. PET has good hardness and brittleness, and its common colors are sub-silver, sub-white, and bright white. According to the thickness, there are 25 fan (1 fan = 1um), 50 fan, 75 fan and other specifications, which are related to the actual requirements of the manufacturer. Due to the excellent dielectric properties of PET, it has good anti-fouling, anti-scratch, high temperature resistance and other properties, it is widely used in many special occasions, such as mobile phone batteries, computer monitors, air-conditioning compressors, etc. In addition, PET paper has good natural degradability, which has increasingly attracted the attention of manufacturers.
3. PVC Advanced Label Paper PVC is the English abbreviation of vinyl, it is also a kind of polymer material, and the common colors are sub-white and pearl white. The performance of PVC is similar to that of PET. Compared with PET, it has good flexibility and soft hand feeling. It is often used in some high-end occasions such as jewelry, jewelry, watches, electronics, and metal industries. However, the degradation of PVC is poor, which has a negative impact on environmental protection. Some developed countries have begun to develop alternative products in this regard. 4. Thermal Paper It is a paper material treated with a high heat-sensitive heat-sensitive coating. The high-sensitivity surface material can be applied to a low-voltage print head, so the wear on the print head is minimal. Durable Thermal Paper is specially used in electronic scales and a kind of thermal printing paper in cash registers. The easiest way to test Durable Thermal Paper: use your nails to scratch the paper hard, and a black scratch will be left. Thermal paper is suitable for shelf labels in cold storage and refrigerators, and its size is mostly fixed at the standard of 40mmX60mm.
5.Clothing Tag Double-sided coated paper is often used, and the thickness of coated paper used for clothing tags is generally between 160g-300g. However, clothing tags that are too thick are suitable for printing, and clothing tags printed with barcode printers should be about 180g, so as to ensure a good printing effect and protect the print head. Scope of application: clothing, shoes, supermarkets and shopping malls price tags. 6. Synthetic Paper Best Quality Syntheic Paper has the characteristics of high strength, tear resistance, perforation resistance, wear resistance, folding resistance, moisture resistance, insect resistance, etc. Because synthetic paper does not generate dust and does not shed hair, Best Quality Syntheic Paper can be used in clean rooms. Can be in direct contact with food. Best Quality Syntheic Paper is waterproof, oil-proof, untearable, high-temperature resistant, abrasion-resistant, and can be divided into matte, plain and bright. Scope of application: electronics, home appliances, automobiles, chemicals and other industries.
