Different Kinds of Labels & Stickers Businesses Use

Published // May 04, 2022 Industry Guide

Labels and stickers serve a multitude of purposes in the business world, from critical safety warnings to high-impact brand advertising.

Many companies use a variety of labels and stickers to identify their products, manage inventory, and ensure workplace safety. Understanding the different types available can help you choose the best solution for your specific needs.

1. Phenolic Labels

Often referred to as "plastic" labels, Phenolic Labels are actually made from a durable, acrylic-based material. They are exceptionally weather-resistant and are a staple in the electrical industry for labeling control panels and circuit breakers where permanence is non-negotiable.

2. Safety and Warning Stickers

These are instructional labels designed to highlight hazards and provide safety directions. They must be highly visible and comply with OSHA and ISO standards. We engineer these to withstand the environmental conditions of the specific equipment they are applied to.

3. Identification Labels

Used primarily for inventory management and asset tracking. These labels often feature barcodes or QR codes and are designed to remain legible for years, ensuring that equipment can always be correctly identified during audits or maintenance.

4. Branding Labels

Branding labels focus on aesthetics and identity. They often feature high-resolution logos and stylish designs. Using processes like dye sublimation or UV printing, these labels make a lasting impression on customers while reinforcing the quality of the brand.
