Thermal label paper is very suitable for use in food logistics transportation, mainly due to its unique material properties and wide applicability. The following is a detailed analysis of the application of thermal label paper in food logistics transportation:


Material characteristics of thermal label paper

High thermal sensitivity coating: The surface of thermal sensitive label paper is treated with a high thermal sensitivity coating, which undergoes a chemical reaction and changes color when exposed to a heated print head, forming graphics and text. This allows thermal label paper to be printed without the need for carbon tape, which is convenient, fast, and cost-effective.

Paper base and adhesive layer: Thermal label paper includes not only a thermal coating, but also a paper base and adhesive layer. Paper is used as the supporting material, while adhesive layer is used for adhesive fixation. This structure enables the thermal label paper to be firmly attached to food packaging and not easily peeled off.

No need for carbon tape: Thermal label paper does not need to be used with carbon tape during use, which reduces costs and simplifies the printing process.

The application advantages of thermal label paper in food logistics transportation

Waterproof and oil resistant: Although ordinary thermal paper labels are not waterproof or oil resistant, there are also three proof thermal adhesive label papers on the market that have waterproof, moisture-proof, and oil resistant functions. In food logistics transportation, this three proof feature is particularly important to ensure that labels remain clear and readable even in damp or greasy environments.

Clear and readable information: Thermal label paper can clearly print the production date, shelf life, ingredients, and other information of food, making it convenient for consumers to understand the relevant information of food. At the same time, its printing effect is delicate and does not lose powder, and the printed images and text are clear and visible.

Improving logistics efficiency: By printing identification information such as barcodes and QR codes, thermal label paper can help logistics personnel quickly and accurately track the location and quantity of packages, improving logistics efficiency. In addition, the information on the label can also be used for cargo classification and picking, improving picking efficiency.

Suitable for various environments: Thermal label paper is suitable for various environments, including low-temperature environments such as cold storage and freezers. This enables it to also play an excellent role in food cold chain logistics transportation.

matters needing attention

Storage time: Thermal label paper has a relatively short storage time because prolonged exposure to high temperatures, sunlight, or tape contact can accelerate its fading process. Therefore, in food logistics transportation, attention should be paid to the storage conditions of labels to avoid affecting their clarity and readability.

Choose the appropriate label paper: Based on the specific needs of food logistics transportation, choose the appropriate thermal label paper. For example, for environments that require waterproofing and oil resistance, three proof thermal sensitive adhesive label paper should be selected.

In summary, thermal label paper has significant application advantages in food logistics transportation, which can improve logistics efficiency, ensure clear and readable information, and adapt to various environments. Therefore, it is an indispensable labeling material in food logistics transportation.
