1. Material Selection: Choose between paper or synthetic materials based on the application. Synthetic materials like polyester or polypropylene are more durable and resistant to harsh conditions.
2. Adhesive Type: Ensure the adhesive is suitable for the surface and environment (e.g., permanent, removable, or freezer-grade adhesive).
3. Printing Method: Decide between direct thermal or thermal transfer printing based on the required durability and lifespan of the label.
4. Size and Shape: Customize the size and shape of the labels to fit your specific needs.
5. Design and Branding: Incorporate your company’s branding, colors, and logos to enhance brand recognition.
6. Regulatory Compliance: Ensure the labels meet industry-specific regulations, such as FDA compliance for food packaging or GS1 standards for barcodes.
