What are pressure sensitive labels?
Pressure sensitive labels are everywhere and stuck to almost everything we consume on a daily basis. Labels are ambassadors for business brands and connect with consumers on a very personal level, yet most people have no idea about the elements and complexities of a label.
Pressure sensitive labels or “ps labels” can be applied to anything with very light pressure and does not require messy glue to be applied during the production of a product. There are five layers that make up a label that we refer to as “The Sandwich”.
Finally, to allow for machine application of the labels, the matrix must be stripped and the labels rewound in the correct orientation for the packaging line equipment. Pressure sensitive labels are used across many industries and various products including food, beverage, household chemicals, beer and wine, health and personal care, cannabis, and so many other products purchased everyday across the United States.
