Special-shaped stickers

1. Core Product Definition

- Product Name: Roll-fed self-adhesive labels (also known as roll-fed stickers or machine-applied labels)

- Core Positioning: Roll-fed labels specifically designed for automatic labelling machines and barcode printers, replacing manual application to significantly improve efficiency in packaging, dispatch and warehousing.

- Core Applications:

Eyeash/Cosmetics: Brand logos, product information and anti-counterfeiting labels for eyelash boxes, glue boxes and gift boxes

- E-commerce Dispatch: Parcel labels, sealing stickers and after-sales reminder stickers

- Warehouse Management: SKU classification, batch, and traceability labels

- Retail Products: Price tags, promotional labels, ingredient labels

2. Structure and Key Features

 Structural Composition

Roll-fed self-adhesive labels consist of a three-layer structure: face stock, adhesive, and liner, wound onto a paper core:

- Face stock: The substrate for printed content; common materials include coated paper, matt silver paper, transparent PET and synthetic paper

- Adhesive: The backing layer that determines adhesion properties (strong hold, removable, waterproof, etc.)

- Liner: Glassine liner protects the adhesive and facilitates machine peeling

- Roll design: Labels are wound continuously in sequence, compatible with the continuous feed of automatic labelling machines to achieve high-speed automated labelling

6. Additional Notes

- The images showcase a variety of roll label styles, including colour printing, black-and-white printing, die-cut shapes and barcode labels, covering all scenarios from brand display to functional identification.

- For the eyelash extension industry, we recommend the standard option of coated paper with strong adhesive, which offers the best value for money; for premium gift boxes, transparent PET or matt silver PET can be used to enhance the product’s prestige.

Customisation Tips

If you are using these for eyelash product packaging, we recommend:

- Small-batch trial production: Produce samples first to confirm the material, adhesion and print quality

- Allow for machine compatibility: Confirm the core size and label spacing requirements for labelling machines/printers in advance

- Waterproof upgrade: For products such as eyelash glue, we recommend using matt silver PET material, which is moisture- and oil-resistant
