White semi gloss paper labels are what most people would generally term as ‘sticky labels’.
They can be printed using a desktop label printer and are backed with a removable adhesive which is typically used where labels need to be removed after a period of time.
Semi gloss labels are ideal for product identification, product and price promotional labelling and removable labels for boxes, folders or shelves.
These labels should not be exposed to water, grease or chemicals as the paper used on semi gloss labels will not cope particularly well with these substances. Outdoor use is also not advised, for the same reason.
However, semi gloss labels offer a very economical and versatile printing method for indoor labelling and when the labels do not need to last for long periods of time.
The semi gloss labels will stick to both smooth and rough surfaces and are not generally affected by light or heat, making them a versatile choice for most applications.
