Introduction

Thermal labels are a versatile and essential component in various industries, including logistics, retail, and healthcare. These labels, which come in an array of sizes, are designed for thermal printers and offer efficiency in high-speed labeling processes. This article delves into the standard sizes available, their common uses, and how Shirleyya company provides tailored solutions to meet diverse business needs.

Standard Sizes of Thermal Labels

Thermal labels are produced in multiple standard sizes to cater to different applications and printer specifications. Below are some of the most commonly used sizes, often measured in inches:

• 2 x 1 (51mm x 25mm)
• 3 x 2 (76mm x 51mm)
• 4 x 6 (102mm x 152mm)
• 4 x 4 (102mm x 102mm)
• 1 x 1 (25mm x 25mm)
• 2.25 x 1.25 (57mm x 32mm)

Common Applications

The different sizes of thermal labels serve distinct purposes across various sectors:

• Logistics and Shipping: Larger labels like 4 x 6 are typically used for shipping and logistics, providing sufficient space for barcodes, addresses, and other critical shipment information.
• Retail: Labels measuring 2 x 1 or 3 x 2 are often used in retail environments for price tagging and product identification.
• Healthcare: Smaller labels such as 1 x 1 are ideal for labeling vials and test tubes in healthcare settings, where space is limited.

Customization Options

Besides standard sizes, labels can be tailored to specific requirements in dimensions, adhesive strength, and material:

• Custom Sizes: Businesses can request labels in any size to fit their specific needs, especially when using unique packaging or non-standard containers.
• Adhesive Choices: Depending on the surface and application environment, labels can be produced with permanent, removable, or repositionable adhesives.
