Stickers Material FAQs
1-3 mils (25-75μm) : Thin type, suitable for documents and posters. 5-10mil (125-250μm) : Universal type, used for certificates and menus. ≥10mil (>250μm) : Hardened protection, suitable for ID cards and work badges.
Protection (anti-scratch, waterproof, anti-stain), enhancement of appearance (shiny, matte effect), reinforcement (increased thickness and hardness).
Laminated film is a kind of thin film material that is combined with paper, printed matter, cards and other substrates through bonding process (heating or normal temperature pressure), and is mainly used for protecting, decorating or strengthening the substrate. Its core functions include water resistance, tear resistance, UV resistance, and enhancing texture (such as gloss), and it is widely used in office work, printing, packaging, documentation and other fields.
1. Clean the substrate: The surface of the substrate must be dry and free of dust; otherwise, it will affect the bonding effect. 2. Uniform pressure: When manually pressing, a scraper can be used to push from the center to the edge to expel air. 3. Environmentally friendly options: Prioritize the use of cold-laminated films made of PET material to avoid the release of harmful substances by PVC.
1. Temperature control: Adjust the temperature according to the film thickness (high temperature is required for thick films) to prevent the material from being damaged by excessively high temperatures or delamination caused by excessively low temperatures. 2. Anti-bubble: Ensure that the base material is aligned with the film and the machine passes through at a uniform speed; otherwise, bubbles are likely to form. 3. Equipment safety: Keep the high-temperature components of the hot mounting machine away from children. Wait for it to cool down after operation before cleaning.
Thermal laminated film is a material that bonds the film to substrates such as paper and printed matter through high-temperature heating. It is mainly used for protecting, reinforcing or decorating various media. The core principle is to use the hot melt adhesive layer at the edge or inside of the film to melt at high temperatures and tightly bond with the substrate through pressure, forming a solid protective layer
Cold laminating film is a kind of film material that can be directly bonded to substrates such as paper, photos and printed matter under pressure without heating. It is mainly used for protection, decoration or to enhance the durability of materials. Unlike traditional hot laminating films (which require high-temperature heating for lamination), cold laminating films rely on the adhesion of adhesives to achieve lamination, making the operation more convenient and suitable for materials sensitive to high temperatures.
Temperature-sensitive stickers are paper surfaces coated with heat-sensitive ink. Their color changes when the temperature fluctuates (such as changing color at high temperatures or low temperatures).
Rubbing stickers are a special type of paper used for replicating text, patterns or textures. The principle is to transfer the content of the target surface onto the paper through pressure or solvent action. They are often used in scenarios such as cultural relic protection, handicraft making, and teaching demonstrations
Water sensitive sticker material is a special functional sticker material that is sensitive to moisture (humidity, liquids). Its core feature is that it will change color or performance after coming into contact with moisture, thereby achieving visual warning of humid environments, liquid leakage or opening behavior
VOID sticker material is a kind of revealing sticker anti-counterfeiting material with plastic film as the base material, also known as anti-counterfeiting character mold. Its feature is that when the label is lifted, the pre-set text or patterns, such as "VOID", "unsealed", "opened", etc., will separate from the surface material and remain on the object to be affixed, thereby achieving the purposes of anti-counterfeiting and anti-tampering
The breaking strength of eggshell stickers is lower than the bonding capacity of adhesives, and they have the characteristics of being unable to be completely peeled off and reused after being pasted.
Water-dissolving stickers are environmentally friendly labels that quickly disintegrate upon contact with water. They are composed of water-soluble substrates and water-active adhesives, leaving no residue after dissolution. They are specifically designed to address the pollution problem caused by traditional label recycling.
Flexographic printing dedicated self-adhesive materials are multi-layer composite label materials designed for flexographic printing processes. Their core features are: withstanding high-speed printing at over 200 meters per minute, matching the rapid drying characteristics of water-based /UV inks, and the roll material is stretchable, ensuring registration accuracy (±0.1mm)
ECO solvent UV printing self-adhesive material is an environmentally friendly label material, specially designed for ECO solvent UV inkjet printers. It combines the low pollution of ECO solvent ink with the immediate drying feature of UV curing technology, allowing for direct printing and curing of graphics and text on the surface material.
HP Indigo sticker material is a specially coated self-adhesive material optimized for HP electronic ink digital printing machines, achieving high-quality printing effects comparable to offset printing through electronic ink technology
Thermal label material is a special type of self-adhesive label that does not require carbon ribbons or ink. Its surface is coated with a thermal sensitive coating (containing dark dyes and color developers), and through the heat effect of the thermal print head, it directly shows color and forms an image.
Thermal transfer label material is a type of label material that is used in conjunction with a thermal transfer printer and a dedicated ribbon (carbon ribbon). During printing, the print head heats up to transfer the ink on the ribbon to the label surface, forming long-lasting and clear graphics and text. The heat-pressed transfer ink achieves high damage resistance and long-term preservation of the label, which is an essential choice in industries such as manufacturing, logistics, and medical care
