During transportation, preventing damage to color thermal labels is the key to ensuring clear and accurate identification of goods. Here are some suggested measures:
First, choose the right label paper material
Choice of thermal paper and coated paper: Although thermal paper is easy to print, it is susceptible to environmental effects (such as light, temperature, humidity, etc.) and faded or damaged. In contrast, coated paper + carbon tape labels have better stability, are less affected by temperature, and are more suitable for various transportation environments. Therefore, in the transportation process, you can consider using coated paper + carbon tape labels to replace thermal paper labels.
Second, the correct label pasting method
Avoid using transparent tape cover: The surface of the thermal paper label should not be covered with transparent tape, because the alkaline substance on the adhesive paper may react chemically with the thermal paper coating, causing the label to fade. If transparent tape must be used, it should be fixed on the edge of the label where there is no text and barcode.
Posting position and quantity: For the goods sent to FBA, the outer box of each piece of goods shall be posted with 2 FBA labels on different surface of the box, and the surface of the posted box shall be smooth and intact. To avoid damage in transit, do not post the label at the box closure.
Third, proper packaging and protection
Use a good quality outer box: The outer box should be as clean, thick and good quality materials as possible to provide adequate protection.
Stuffing and fixing: the inside of the box should have the necessary stuffing to avoid the box being squeezed and deformed during transportation, resulting in the label not being recognized. At the same time, the label should be firmly attached to the box to prevent it from falling off or being damaged during transportation.
Fourth, pay attention to transportation conditions
Moisture proof and waterproof: thermal paper is sensitive to humid environment, so it should be ensured that the goods are not damp and not drenched during transportation.
Avoid high temperature and direct sunlight: Thermal paper fades easily in high temperature environments, and direct sunlight will accelerate the damage of the label. Therefore, during the transportation process should try to avoid the goods exposed to high temperature or sunlight for a long time.
Fifth, other precautions
Regular inspection: During transportation, the packaging and label status of the goods should be checked regularly to ensure that the label is clear and readable.
Communication with logistics companies: Maintain good communication with logistics companies to understand the precautions and special requirements during transportation in order to better protect the goods and labels.
In summary, by selecting the appropriate label paper material, the correct label pasting method, proper packaging and protection, paying attention to transportation conditions and other relevant precautions, the color thermal label paper can be effectively prevented from being damaged during transportation.
