Labels for oily, dirty, and dusty substrates
These labels satisfy the highest requirements and adhere securely on demanding surfaces. These include also oily, dirty, rough and formable substrates as well as porous surfaces. Here the basis of the chosen adhesives is essential, which basically consists from acrylate or rubber. Special adhesives unite acrylate and rubber to a hybrid adhesive to benefit from the advantages of both components and offer best possible reliability of a consistent and long term labeling.
The main features of labels for oily, dirty, and dusty surfaces
- Very high adhesive power of labels also on slightly oily/dirty surfaces
- Good adhesion on substrates with low surface tension
- The labels can be adhered immediately after the manufacturing of the containers or on the bottling line
- No wrinkles or blistering in the case of extension and contraction of the container
- High resistance in outdoor applications and in contact with chemicals and solvents
- Resistance against recurring cleaning processes
- High abrasion resistance with suitable thermal transfer ribbons for the thermal transfer printing
- Suitable for standard-compliant labeling like e.g. BS5609 section II and III
- Optimization of the processes by automation of material- and product flow by automated dispensing
Functions and advantages – precisely tailored to your requirements for the labeling of difficult surfaces
The lubricants and oils will be bottled at higher temperatures. Thus the canister expands and contracts again. The label must be very robust and adhere strong to withstand this process, especially when the surfaces are additionally oily, dusty or soiled and have a structured, rough surface.
Our high performance labels will be adjusted individually to the customer’s requirements. This happens by using suitable special materials, individual die-cutting forms and premium adhesives by leading manufacturers like e.g. Avery, 3M, Flexcon, and Tesa.
The labels can be inscribed directly as required in variable amounts with current data at the site, by that the storage and the management of numerous labels may be dropped or reduced.
Our upscale and accurate processing with most modern die-cutting technologies guarantees the highest precision and reliability for the label application. Thus even labels with adhesives which are difficult to process can be processed mechanically very well, which increases the user efficiency in the long term.
