A thermal blank label is a type of label that is designed to be printed on using a thermal printer. These labels are typically made of thermal paper, which is coated with a special chemical that reacts to heat. When the thermal printer applies heat to the paper, it causes the chemical coating to darken in the areas where heat is applied, creating text, images, or barcodes on the label.
“Blank” in this context means that the label is not pre-printed with any specific information. Instead, it is left blank so that it can be customized with whatever text, graphics, or other information is needed at the time of printing.
Thermal blank labels are commonly used in various industries for tasks such as printing shipping labels, barcode labels, product labels, and more. They offer the advantage of fast, efficient printing without the need for ink or toner cartridges.
Variety of range we have in thermal blank label like:
Direct Thermal Labels: These labels are designed to be used with direct thermal printers. They have a heat-sensitive coating that darkens when exposed to the heat from the printer’s thermal print head. Direct thermal labels are commonly used for short-term applications such as shipping labels, receipts, and tickets.
Thermal Transfer Labels: Unlike direct thermal labels, thermal transfer labels require a ribbon to transfer ink onto the label. The ribbon is heated by the printer’s thermal print head, which melts the ink onto the label substrate. Thermal transfer labels are known for their durability and longevity, making them suitable for applications where resistance to heat, chemicals, or abrasion is required.
Removable Thermal Labels: These labels are designed to be easily removable without leaving residue behind. They are commonly used in applications where temporary labeling is required, such as price tags, promotions, or temporary signage.
Permanent Thermal Labels: Permanent thermal labels are designed to adhere to surfaces for an extended period without peeling or fading. They are commonly used for applications such as product labeling, asset tracking, and inventory management where long-term durability is essential.
High-Temperature Thermal Labels: These labels are specially designed to withstand high temperatures, making them suitable for applications such as labeling products that undergo high-heat processes like industrial manufacturing, automotive, or electronics industries.
Freezer Grade Thermal Labels: Freezer grade thermal labels are designed to withstand extremely low temperatures without fading or becoming brittle. They are commonly used in industries such as food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and cold storage facilities.
Water-Resistant Thermal Labels: Water-resistant thermal labels are coated to repel water, making them suitable for applications where exposure to moisture is a concern, such as outdoor labeling, shipping labels, or kitchen environments.
UV Resistant Thermal Labels: UV-resistant thermal labels are designed to withstand exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light without fading or degrading. They are commonly used for outdoor signage, product labeling, and any application where prolonged exposure to sunlight is expected.
Our labels almost cover all kinds of market leading thermal direct / thermal transfer and inkjet printers.
For example: Dymo, Zebra, Primers, Rollo, Epson, Data max, SATO, Brady and TSC and we have different sizes of labels such as 4″X6″, 2″X1″, 1″X0.5, 3″X1″ and many more.
In summary:
- Blank labels: Are the unprinted label stock onto which designs, text, and images are printed.
