Adhesive Labels: The “Sticky” Opportunities for Future Growth

In recent years, the domestic adhesive label market has shown a continuous and rapid upward trend. Adhesive labels, which are ubiquitous in daily life, are expected to see significant growth in the coming years, primarily driven by several key industry sectors. Let’s take a closer look!

Food and Pharmaceutical Industry
Currently, the food and pharmaceutical industries mainly use adhesive materials with copperplate paper and mirror copperplate paper as the face material and glassine paper as the backing. These materials are required to have clear printed patterns and concise text, especially for the printing of instructional text, which has high standards. Given the strict safety and hygiene requirements for food and pharmaceutical products, adhesive overflow must be avoided to prevent the products from adhering to dust in the air. Therefore, it is essential to select adhesive materials with more uniform adhesive coating and better face material adaptability. Additionally, as more food and pharmaceutical factories adopt automatic labeling, adhesive materials with high tensile strength and good die-cutting performance on glassine backing are widely used to meet the requirements of high-speed automatic labeling.

Supermarket and Logistics Industry
Thermal labels are mainly used in supermarket electronic scales. The surface coating on the face material reacts chemically with the heated carbon head, turning black upon contact with heat, thereby displaying the printed text. Thermal transfer labels are primarily used for printing various information and barcodes in logistics. They rely on the printer’s carbon head to transfer ink from the ribbon onto the face material through temperature and pressure. Therefore, thermal label printing is a chemical change, making it difficult to preserve information for a long time or when exposed to sunlight. In contrast, thermal transfer label printing is a physical change, allowing better information retention during the logistics process.

Electronics Industry

A wide variety of electrical appliances are equipped with many high-temperature-resistant and durable adhesive labels. These labels have large unit areas and are numerous in quantity. With the further popularization of electrical products, the demand for durable adhesive labels is bound to increase. In addition, IT products are also rapidly gaining popularity. Adhesive labels, as product information labels, have extensive applications on these products, further driving the demand for adhesive labels.

Food Industry
Adhesive labels used in food packaging must comply with national regulations and indicate information such as the manufacturer, food ingredients, and production license. In addition, some manufacturers hope that labels can display food safety traceability information for consumer inquiries. The food safety traceability information system requires that the information on the label be complete, legible, and recognizable throughout the entire process from production, distribution, storage, and sales to consumer inquiries. Otherwise, it may cause information chaos, product mixing, or even loss of goods in the management process. In terms of consumer experience, if consumers cannot read the food label using mobile phones or other terminal devices, it may lead to doubts about the product’s safety and, in severe cases, affect consumer confidence in the brand.
