Shrink sleeve labels are decorative labels that shrink and adhere tightly to the surface of a container through heat, primarily used for product identification and brand display. Their base material is thermoplastic film, which shrinks through a heat tunnel (such as a hot air tunnel or steam tunnel), adhering to the container without adhesive. Shrink sleeve labels provide 360° all-around packaging coverage, maximizing brand display and information delivery space, and adapting to complex container shapes. Unlike shrink packaging, shrink sleeve labels focus more on decoration and identification, typically covering the entire container to enhance shelf appeal. The label graphics are usually printed on the inner surface of the film to protect the print from abrasion and moisture, ensuring durability.
Shrink sleeve labels are labels printed on a plastic film or plastic tube base material, a sub-application of heat shrink film, primarily used for product identification rather than outer packaging. They are made of thermoplastic films such as PVC, PET, and OPS, and shrink tightly to the container surface through heat. They feature easy processing, no adhesive required, contamination resistance, and 360° graphic display, making them suitable for irregularly shaped goods.
