Linerless Direct Thermal Barcode Labels

Linerless direct thermal labels have an adhesive layer on the back of a continuous roll to eliminate the need to pull away a liner, reducing waste. Direct thermal labels are used with a direct thermal barcode printer and do not require a ribbon. A thermal printhead applies heat to these chemically treated labels to produce markings with clear edge definitions. Direct thermal printers produce labels that are more sensitive to heat, abrasion, and excessive light compared to thermal transfer labels and are suitable for indoor retail labeling and inventory tracking.
