Durable adhesive labels are essential for maintaining the integrity and visibility of product information. ST Pack offers insights into how to ensure these labels adhere firmly and last long.
How Can Surface Preparation Enhance Label Adhesion?
One of the key factors in ensuring that durable adhesive labels stick firmly is proper surface preparation. Before applying the label, it is crucial to clean the surface thoroughly to remove any dust, grease, or moisture. Using a clean, damp cloth or a mild cleaning solution can help achieve a clean surface, which is essential for optimal adhesion.
What Role Does Temperature Play in Label Application?
Temperature also plays a significant role in the adhesion process. Ideally, labels should be applied in an environment where the temperature is above 15°C and the humidity is between 40%-60%. These conditions help the adhesive to bond effectively with the surface. If the temperature is too low or the humidity is too high, the adhesive may not perform optimally, leading to poor adhesion or even label lifting.
By cleaning the surface and applying the labels in the right temperature and humidity, businesses can maximize the lifespan and effectiveness of their labels, ensuring that product information remains clear and accessible. ST Pack continues to provide high-quality labels and support to help businesses achieve their labeling needs effectively.
