What Are Heat Transfer Labels?

If you’re looking for a simple and environmentally-friendly way to brand your packaging without sacrificing aesthetics and functionality, MCC Label’s heat transfer labels might be the solution you’re looking for. 

Also called heat press labels, these provide a seamless, aesthetic, ‘no-label’ look while offering a virtual 360-degree application, ultimately creating a visually appealing and highly functional product. 

This technology can also be applied to various containers in different shapes and sizes (from two ounces to five gallons) with extremely accurate label placement. So whether you have a cylindrical glass container or an irregularly shaped plastic tub, a heat transfer label can accommodate your product’s form and get the job done right.  

Moreover, heat press labels afford excellent adhesion and durability – even in high-moisture environments. Since images are transferred to containers by applying heat and pressure, this kind of label won’t fade, peel or crack off. It is also squeeze- and product-resistant and has a high degree of ink opacity. 

Finally, heat transfer labels are fully recyclable without having to remove them from the container. This feature is particularly beneficial if you work on waste reduction strategies and sustainability goals.
