Labels: Small surfaces with big power 

You might not see them, but they're everywhere. On products, packages, bottles, windows – even on yourself, if you've ever worn a “Hello, my name is...” at a seminar.

We are of course talking about labels – not just small stickers, but essential information carriers, brand builders and sales promoters. And in our world, no two labels are alike.

Die-cut, top-punched, on a roll, on sheets, matt, smooth or rough surface, removable or permanent adhesive. The possibilities are many, and we are here to Help deg with the choice of label type and design.

Labels on roll or sheet

We deliver labels on reels (for automatic or semi-automatic application) or on sheets (for manual use) The right format makes production smooth and efficient – we tailor dimensions, core sizes, and winding to your specifications.

Top-punched labels. This means that the label is cut through the top layer of the material without affecting the backing paper. This provides a sharp, precise edge and ensures that the labels can be easily peeled from the backing paper – ideal for automated application or high-volume production.

If you want a shape other than round or rectangular for your labels, we can die-cut them into the exact shape you want. These are supplied on full sheets or as individual labels.

Instead of printing directly onto boxes, you can print labels to be stuck onto the box. If you want variety in the design or wish to change the look of your company logo, you only need to swap out the labels – a simple and inexpensive way to brand boxes or products.

Durable labels

Do you need labels that can withstand harsh environments? We have durable labels strong enough to be applied to the floor. You can also get these with a textured surface, which makes the floor labels anti-slip, incredibly practical!

UV labels are produced using UV-cured ink – a digital printing technique where the ink is immediately dried and cured with ultraviolet light. The result is an extremely durable print surface with high colour reproduction. You can also get these embossed, which raises selected elements of the label, such as the logo, text or patterns, giving them a tactile 3D effect. This provides an exclusive and professional finish that can both be seen and felt. Often used on wine bottles, cosmetics and premium products.

Removable labels

With removable adhesive, the label can be removed without leaving marks or adhesive residue. Ideal for temporary labelling, promotional labels, rental equipment or surfaces that must not be damaged. Strong enough to stay put – yet easy to remove.

Labels on a roll or sheet, and UV labels, are all fixed with permanent adhesive. If, on the other hand, you need a temporary label that you must remove again after a time, we print labels with an electrostatic fastener. Static electricity, not adhesive. These can be attached to glass, metal, and other smooth surfaces, even to computer screens. We also have a promotional vinyl, a film with the Easy-dot fastening method. The entire surface is not covered with adhesive, but instead has small dots or spots of adhesive on it. This makes the label easy to remove and stick on again. You can move the label around, provided that the surface you place it on is clean, so that debris and dirt do not stick to the adhesive side of the label. Promotional vinyl can be fitted for several years if desired, and leaves no adhesive residue when you take them off.

Why labels? – Because the world needs order, identity – and glue.

A good label does more than just tell you what something is. It catches the eye, makes your company profile visible, and ensures that customers choose precisely ditto product when the shelf is full of competitors. Labels give you a simple and inexpensive opportunity for variety in the expression of your business. Whether you choose labels with permanent adhesive, or the removable ones, labels offer an incredible number of creative and exciting possibilities for marketing your business.
