Weatherproof Direct Thermal Label Features
Our weatherproof direct thermal material consists of a synthetic white matte facesheet that is specifically top-coated for direct thermal printing. This material is perfect for applications where high durability and resistance to moisture are required. It utilizes a permanent hotmelt adhesive that is capable of withstanding freezer conditions when applied.
Our selection of direct thermal labels is available in popular sizes on 1" and 3" cores. We also sell DYMO®-compatible direct thermal labels.
Popular uses for weatherproof direct thermal labels include:
- Product identification labels
- Freezer labels
- Safety labels
- Instructional labels
- Barcode labels
- Battery labels
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Will these labels fade over time, under heat, or in sunlight?
While the weatherproof coating offers added protection, direct thermal technology is inherently more vulnerable to fading under prolonged heat.
-
What kind of adhesive is used, and how well does it work under cold freezer conditions?
These weatherproof labels feature a permanent adhesive that can withstand temperatures ranging from -20°F to 400°F once applied. For any cold storage or freezing applications, we also recommend letting the label set with time for best adhesion.
-
What are the common uses of Weatherproof Direct Thermal label paper? Is it better than standard direct thermal paper?
Weatherproof direct thermal paper is often used for cold storage and warehouse or exterior conditions where moisture and condensation are a concern. While standard direct thermal paper has great performance for typical indoor applications, the weatherproof version provides stronger durability for harsh or wet environments.
-
What temperature range can these labels handle?
These weatherproof labels have an application temperature of -65°F to +147°F. This can make them a fit for labeling applications that may involve cold or warm conditions.
-
Do direct thermal labels need a ribbon?
No, direct thermal labels print without a ribbon. Direct thermal printers use heat to create the design on the label.
-
What are weatherproof labels used for?
Weatherproof labels are used for high moisture, handling, or more demanding conditions. They are great for product IDs, barcode labels, storage labels, food service workflows, and operations labeling.
