Labelstock · For converters, distributors & print buyers
Self-adhesive labelstock, specified before it is quoted.
Five material families, supplied as master rolls or finished slit widths. Each quotation names the face stock, adhesive, liner, width, core and diameter — so what arrives can be checked against what you approved.
01 / Material families
Choose the structure your press and application require.
The tables below describe the direction each family is built on. Exact grammage, adhesion value, release force and liner are fixed per grade and confirmed on the quotation.
| Face stock | Thermal transfer paper, coated art paper, semi-gloss, kraft, woodfree |
|---|---|
| Adhesive | Permanent; removable and freezer grades on request |
| Liner | Glassine, white or yellow |
| Printing | Flexo, offset, thermal transfer |
| Typical use | FMCG labels, logistics and shipping labels, general packaging |
| Grammage / caliper | Confirmed per grade |
| Face stock | White, clear, glossy and matte PP / BOPP film |
|---|---|
| Adhesive | Permanent; freezer and high-tack grades on request |
| Behaviour | Moisture resistant; suited to squeeze bottles, tubes and jars |
| Printing | Flexo, offset, digital (grade dependent) |
| Typical use | Personal care, household, beverage, wet or chilled environments |
| Caliper | Confirmed per grade |
| Face stock | Clear PET, silver PET, holographic and laser-effect film |
|---|---|
| Adhesive | Permanent; removable on request |
| Behaviour | Dimensional stability and premium surface effects; chemical and temperature limits confirmed per grade |
| Printing | Flexo, offset, screen, digital (grade dependent) |
| Typical use | Industrial, electrical, security and brand-led premium labels |
| Caliper | Confirmed per grade |
| Face stock | High-sensitivity direct thermal; thermal transfer paper |
|---|---|
| Adhesive | Permanent; freezer grade on request |
| Sensitivity | Matched to your printer model and print speed |
| Typical use | Warehousing, shipping, e-commerce fulfilment, shelf and tracking labels |
| Image life | Confirmed per grade and storage condition |
| Face stock | Coated paper and film substrates for HP Indigo and UV inkjet |
|---|---|
| Pre-treatment | Grade-dependent; confirmed against your machine and ink set |
| Sample policy | A trial roll is run on your press before a bulk order is accepted |
| Typical use | Short-run labels, variable data, prototypes and versioned artwork |
Terminology follows common label-industry usage. Where a value depends on the grade, the liner or your equipment, it is marked as confirmed per grade rather than published as a fixed number.
02 / Roll formats
Master roll or finished width. The choice is yours.
Both formats come from the same master roll. If you convert in-house, take the master. If you print directly, take the slit width and let us hold the tolerance.
| Parameter | Master roll | Finished slit roll |
|---|---|---|
| Width | 1530 / 1595 mm* | From your required width upward |
| Slitting tolerance | — | ±0.1 mm target* |
| Core | Confirmed per order | Confirmed per order |
| Maximum roll diameter | Confirmed per material | Confirmed per material |
| Winding direction | Per order | Inward or outward, as specified |
| Minimum quantity | Per grade and width | Per grade and width |
| Lead time | Confirmed at quotation | Confirmed at quotation |
| Packing | Pallet or FCL | Pallet or FCL |
*Final tolerance and available widths are confirmed against material, equipment and order specification. A tolerance claim on a datasheet is a target for production, not a blanket guarantee across every grade.
03 / What we send with a quotation
No quote without a structure behind it.
A price alone is not a specification. Every quotation names the grade being offered, so the same order can be repeated and a substitution can be spotted before it reaches the press.
