Lacquer protection labels with temporary protection during the coating and against soiling and scratches during the production
During the ongoing and multistep production processes the parts will be coated or exposed to heavy mechanical load and soiling. Certain areas of parts or products must be protected to remain flawless for the later use or processing. Also already adhered labels, like for example type plates, can be covered temporarily by transparent protective foils, which can be later removed with the help of a comfortable flap. The labels adhere due to easy-to-remove-adhesives and do not leave any adhesive residues. This way the labels remain undamaged and serve the safe identification and information. They will also be applied for the protection of scratch-sensitive product surfaces during the production, packaging and on the way to the end customer.

Functions and advantages of lacquer protection labels – precisely tailored to your requirements for the labeling
These protective foils cover labels, surfaces and parts temporarily. They can carry information or also be plain. During the adhesion of a label the products remain flawless and will not be soiled or damaged.
The labels offer the best possible flexibility and will be adjusted individually to the customer’s requirements. This happens by using suitable special materials of leading manufacturers, individual die-cutting forms and premium adhesives.
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.
Our upscale and accurate processing with most modern die‑cutting technologies guarantees the highest precision and reliability for the label application.
Frequently Asked Questions
Industrial applications of lacquer protection labels
The typical labeling products in the area of these labels are protective foils for surfaces made of metal, glass, plastics and many other materials which need to be protected. These labels can be applied for example in the following branches and areas:
- Car manufacturing (OEMs, suppliers)
- Vehicle construction (parts surfaces in passenger transport, freight transport, ship and train construction)
- Mechanical engineering (engines, machines, and machine tools)
- Electric tools engineering (tools, home appliances, office machines etc.)
- Electronics (display protection)
- Medical products (active, non-active and products with measuring function)
Individual features of labels for surface and type plate protection:
When the lacquer protection labels are no longer necessary, then they can be peeled off easily and without residues with the help of comfortable flaps. Here a multilayer material compositions can be realized, which can be peeled off one after another after different processing steps.
Lacquer protection labels can adhere to numerous surfaces due to adhesion or very weak adhesives depending on the requirements. The adhesives offer optical clarity and do not discolor. They remain crystal clear and transparent. They are low‑odor and UV resistant.
The robust labels are available in different types of foil, which also resist high ambient temperature for example during the drying processes or special bathes.
Technical key data
- Temperature resistance from +150° C (302° F) C up to -40° C (-40° F)
