1. Waterproof Adhesive Stickers
Ordinary thin film adhesive stickers are waterproof adhesive stickers. Common waterproof adhesive sticker materials include PP synthetic paper adhesive stickers, milky white PE adhesive stickers, transparent film adhesive stickers and stickers, PET adhesive stickers, and so on, all of which can be waterproof and moisture-proof

Adhesive printing factories will use good water-based adhesives, so the stability of the stickers will be even higher. Not only can they be waterproof and moisture-proof, but there is no need to worry about the stickers falling off
In fact, there are many materials for waterproof and moisture-proof adhesive stickers. Printing companies can select sticker materials that are more suitable based on the material of the adhesive surface layer, the indoor environment in which the stickers are applied, the actual effect that the sticker design needs to achieve, and whether there are special process technologies involved

What are the characteristics of synthetic paper stickers?
Adhesive labels are still quite common in our daily lives, with a wide variety of types. The characteristics and application fields of different types of adhesive labels are different. Therefore, we need to have a better understanding of the characteristics of the adhesive labels we need to use. Synthetic paper adhesive labels are one of them. Today, Xiao Zhang will take you to learn about the characteristics of synthetic paper stickers
Synthetic paper adhesive, also known as Synthetic paper in English, is a new type of plastic material product and an environmentally friendly adhesive. It has the characteristics of light weight, high strength, tear resistance, good printability, light shielding, UV resistance, durability, and economic and environmental protection
