Custom Tube Labels: Adhesive Types

Before you select your custom tube labels, here are some of the more common adhesive types we offer at Chicago Color Label:

• • Permanent Adhesives: This type of label cannot be removed unless you destroy or distort the product or label and can typically have stronger properties to withstand UV exposure, temperature changes, moisture, and other elements. They are also uniquely shaped to the product or packaging for long-lasting adhesion.  
  • Removeable Adhesives: Used commonly on retail goods and can include tags on clothing or stickers that can easily be removed with little residue.  
  • Repositional Adhesives: Mostly used on flat surfaces, these are designed to be applied, removed, and reapplied as needed over time without damaging the label or product.  

• Temperature-Specific Adhesives: These custom tube labels must meet the particular requirements of withstanding certain temperatures or degrees when being stored, shipped, or sold.  

Custom Tube Labels: Adhesive Factors and Properties

It’s also important to understand the performance of your particular adhesive material which includes three specific factors, such as tact, adhesion, and shear:

• Tact refers to the initial attraction of an adhesive to the product with little external pressure. 
• Adhesion is the strength of the bond between the adhesive and product when pressure is applied. This can result in a label that is easy to remove with no residue or one that is more difficult to remove and causes damage to the adhesive, leaving bits behind. 
• Lastly, shear is the amont of force needed to pull the label across a horizontal surface in a parallel direction. 

You’ll further see that there are specific adhesive properties to be considered when choosing the right option for creating, storing, and shopping your product. These include:

• Acrylic Adhesives: These typically cost slightly higher than others but offer longer bonding and stronger resistance to UV rays and other common chemical solvents. 
• Rubber-Based Adhesives: These adhesives generally cost lower and have short-term, but instant bonding but can be easily damaged by the sun and other common chemicals. 
• Tamper-Evident Adhesives: These are used to reveal attempts to the remove the label by displaying some more of security message, such as “void’ or “do not resell.”
