What Is Self-adhesive Paper?

Surface Coating: Used to change the properties of the surface material, such as increasing the surface tension, adding color or a protective layer.

Surface material: This can be paper, film or other special material that determines the appearance and function of the label.

Primer: Protects the surface material, increases opacity, enhances adhesion and prevents penetration.

Adhesive: Categorized into permanent and removable, chosen according to different application requirements.

Release Coat: prevents adhesive from sticking to the backing paper when not in use.

Backing paper: carries the release coating and protects the facing material.

Backside Coating/Backside Printing: Can be used to print logo patterns or anti-counterfeiting information.

Classification of self-adhesive paper

Self-adhesive paper can be divided into two categories according to the different materials: paper and film:

Paper self-adhesive: such as coated paper, thermal paper, fragile paper, etc., usually has good printing performance, but poor waterproof.

Membrane self-adhesive: such as PET, PP, etc., with better waterproof and moisture resistance, suitable for use in a variety of environments.

Application of self-adhesive paper
