Functions and advantages of booklet- and leaflet labels
The booklet- or leaflet labels can be considered as hybrid products which consist of a usual basic label and a multi-page folded part. This way in the inner part of these products a variety of information, for example in form of different language variants, can be placed. The number of pages can vary depending on the used material and contain up to 40 pages. By that during the manufacturing process many products can be labeled with just one label, which minimizes the stocks as well as massively simplifies the stock management.
Additionally, the booklet labels can not only be used for e.g. consumer or caution information, but also at the same time applied on the outside for sales promotion within the product family.
Frequently Asked Questions

Individual specificity of the booklet- and leaflet labels construction
The weather-resistant booklet labels made of special materials are suitable for the outdoor application e.g. at the building site.
A booklet label consists of three parts:
Basic label:
The basic labels connects the booklet with the product. Here the adhesive plays an important role. The basic label can be equipped with an adhesive, which can even stick to a slightly oily substrates. The standard is a permanent adhesive. If the booklet has to be adhered to a convex surface, the basic label has to be shortened so there is no tension within the label which can lead to a crack in the worst case. The basic label can serve as a “mount” for the label, it can be printed as an additional page or be provided with a winning code.
Book/folded part:
The book is the main part of a booklet label. For simple applications the paper can be printed in monochrome and dispensed on the basic label without a flap. For the easier opening of the booklet a flap will be integrated. When colored components need to be inserted, a multicolor printing is possible without any problems. Almost any number of pages and paper thickness can be chosen. Moreover, there are materials which can be used outdoors permanently.
Laminate/seal:
On the one hand, the laminate connects the folded part with the basic label and provides it with premium looks, on the other hand it also protects the whole label from the external influences. Here the standard is a transparent, permanently adhesive material. The batch numbers or best before information can be imprinted subsequently.
