It is very common to think that labels are a“simple paper” where the most important thing is the type of ink or the design finishes. But this is not so, what really matters in a good label is the combination of all the elements, including the type of paper or support.
The vast majority of label supports are paper or plastic, but there are also other varieties of support, since not all labels are suitable for the same conditions. It is necessary to look for the one that best suits our customers or consumers.
We show you 5 examples of labels that go beyond paper:
1. Invisible label
It is a polypropylene of maximum transparency. Visibly it seems that there is no label as the typography appears to be a silkscreen on the glass or plastic of a bottle. This label is widely used for cosmetic products.
2. Wooden label
Self-adhesive wooden label very eye-catching and decorative by itself. Widely used on wines and beverages.
3. Cork label
It is a sheet of natural cork glued with paper. A label that adds a fresh touch and gives character to the container. Widely used on wine bottles.
4. Safety label
An ideal label for products that cannot or should not be handled, such as toxic or medical products. These are labels that break when handled and cannot be reused.
5. Non-burning label
These are fireproof labels, ideal for baked goods. Suitable to be attached to food.
