Questions Answered

Retail Frequently Asked Questions

Will linerless labels work with our existing weighscales?

Many modern retail weighscales support linerless printing, including popular models from Bizerba, Mettler Toledo, and DIGI. Some scales may need a linerless platen kit. Check with your scale supplier or use our hardware picker to verify compatibility.

Are linerless labels suitable for food contact?

Yes, our linerless labels are BPA-free and comply with EU food contact regulations. They're safe for direct application to food packaging in deli, bakery, and fresh produce departments.

How do linerless labels help with sustainability targets?

Linerless eliminates 100% of liner waste - the backing paper that traditional labels produce. For a typical supermarket, this can mean tonnes of waste reduction annually. Many retailers highlight this in their environmental reporting.

What about refrigerated and frozen sections?

Our standard linerless labels perform well in refrigerated environments (0-5°C). For frozen applications or cold storage, we offer cold-rated adhesive formulations that maintain adhesion at sub-zero temperatures.

Can we print variable-length labels for different products?

Yes, variable-length printing is a key advantage. From a single roll, you can print short labels for simple items and longer labels for products with extended descriptions, ingredients, or allergen information.

What's the ordering process for large retail chains?

We work directly with retail procurement teams and can supply through your existing distribution channels. Volume pricing, scheduled deliveries, and dedicated account management are available for multi-site retailers.
