What is a logistics label?

logistics label

Logistics labels are self-adhesive labels used to identify logistics express. Compared with traditional self-adhesive labels, logistics labels have higher requirements on materials and production technology. Logistics label paper generally has two layers of labels. The first layer records the consignee, tracking number and other information. After the goods are signed by the recipient, the delivery personnel can easily remove the first layer as a stub. The self-adhesive part of the bottom layer is firmly attached to the package to improve the efficiency of receiving items and facilitate management.

Common logistics labels are divided into the following categories:

1. Letters, express logistics labels;

2. Highway and railway logistics labels;

3. Air and sea logistics labels;

4. Warehousing management logistics standard and so on.

The characteristics of the logistics label

1. Anti-counterfeiting function: The two-dimensional code or barcode on the logistics label can store a large amount of information and has strong confidentiality.

2. Clear printing: The printed handwriting is clear and easy to read, which is convenient for scientific management of goods.

3. Strong stickiness: The logistics label is made of high-quality self-adhesive material, which can make the label firmly stick to the surface of the package, and the label will not fall off or be lost.

4. Easy to manage: The removable surface layer is easy to carry, file and count, which provides great help to the digital management of logistics.

5. Improve efficiency: Logistics labels make information scanning faster, delivery easier, and cargo handover more convenient, which greatly improves the overall efficiency of logistics.

How to judge the quality of logistics labels?

1. Whether the surface layer of the label is smooth.

The surface of the label needs to be smooth, uniform in density, consistent in color, and good in light transmission, so as to ensure that the film absorbs ink evenly and the color difference of the same batch of printed products is small. If the surface layer of the logistics label paper is not very smooth, or has small bubbles and wrinkles, it will affect the storage time of the label.

2. Whether the cutting is uniform.

In the process of cutting logistics label paper, it may be due to the inability to grasp the specifications and models well, resulting in uneven cutting of logistics labels, which will directly affect the appearance and presentation of label information.

3. Whether the thickness of the logistics label is uniform.

The pressure applied during printing is related to the thickness of the adhesive. If the thickness of the adhesive is uneven, the printing pressure will be uneven, which will cause the label print to be dark or light in color.

4. The strength and toughness of the label.

If the logistics label is easily broken under a certain external force, then its quality is not good enough. This not only affects the user experience of consumers, but also affects the credit rating of logistics label printing factories.

5. The wear resistance and waterproof ability of the label.

Due to the long transportation process of logistics and express goods, there are many processes in the middle, and the logistics label is the only place where the courier can find and record information. Therefore, the wear-resistant, scratch-resistant, and waterproof requirements for label materials must be high.

Points to note when storing logistics labels

1. Labels should not be stored in an environment with high temperature and high humidity, and should be protected from direct sunlight and ultra-low temperature.

2. Labels should be sealed and packaged with plastic film before use, and sealed and packaged again after each use.

3. After a large number of printed sheet labels are packaged, they should be stacked in layers. Do not stack them high so as not to be under too much pressure, causing the glue to penetrate and stick.

4. When the label is stored, the box should be sealed with moisture-proof paper or film. Labels in rolls should be stacked upright, and labels in sheets should be stored flat.

5. In addition, it is necessary to pay attention to the safety and fire resistance of the warehouse, because the surface materials and adhesives of many self-adhesive materials are flammable.

Note: Since the self-adhesive material has a complex structure and is easily affected by the environment, it should not be stored for a long time. Self-adhesives that have been stored for more than one year must be checked before use to avoid affecting the sticking effect.
