Question

Anatomy of a Roll Label

Answer

Every roll label is built from a few layers working together. Knowing what each one does helps you choose the right combination for how and where your labels will be used.

LayerWhat it is
FacestockThe material we print on: semi-gloss, white BOPP, clear BOPP, white vinyl and more
AdhesiveThe type of "stickiness" that bonds the label to your product
LinerThe backing the labels are wound onto, which peels away when the label is applied

The facestock sets the look and feel, the adhesive controls how it sticks, and the liner carries the labels on the roll until they are used.
