Why Linerless Labeling is Ideal for Retail Businesses

July 9, 2024

The retail industry plays an integral role in our daily lives, encompassing everything from buying clothing and groceries to ordering take-out meals, all of which involve labels. Labeling can be very demanding for the retail sector. In the modern-day retail world, there is a wide variety of labels that require flexibility to adapt to the industry's diverse applications.

Diversified Retail Applications

Retail is a dynamic industry that has versatile labeling needs. Labels encompass packaging labels, product labels, pricing labels, and promotional labels. All of these labels serve their specific purpose, indicating different information, so the contents will vary in length. In addition, information may need to change depending on items, even within the same application. For example, deli labels or weight scale labels are usually printed during product packaging, and show the date, ingredients, or weight.

Success Story: Elevating Fast Food Service Speed and Accuracy with Linerless

A popular fast-food brand uses labels for clerks and customers to verify items. Printing various orders, ranging from long to short, can result in wasted label space, especially for very short items when using traditional labels.

Food and Beverage Linerless Labels

Linerless labels can be printed in different lengths as they are produced in a continuous roll, significantly reducing waste in this application. While this TSC Auto ID solution simultaneously increases order accuracy, eliminates waste, and promotes sustainability.

Linerless Labeling Boosts Retail Operations

Linerless labels have been introduced with major advantages to operations in recent years. Linerless labels have several benefits, including flexible label length. Its length is the same as the total length of the label roll since the labels are not pre-cut. With linerless technology, one type of media can be used across a range of applications, thanks to its variable label length capability and flexibility in printing various label sizes. This flexibility also grants freedom for content customization and enables adaptability to diverse applications, boosting efficiency and productivity. These labels streamline label printing and application processes by minimizing roll changes for seamless label printing, eliminating concerns about limited or excessive label length.

Linerless Labels for Retail Stores

Linerless labels also eliminate backing liners, eliminating the need to peel labels after printing. This offers optimum convenience for retail operations like the point-of-sale because waste handling is eliminated. Busy operators can focus on maximum productivity, instead of waste handling when using these labels.

Success Story: Sustainability Flourishes in the Cosmetics Industry

A world-renowned cosmetic brand sought an eco-friendly carton labeling solution aligned with its sustainability strategies. TSC Auto ID supplied the anti-adhesive design ensuring smooth printing. The solution delivers tangible benefits for both operations and the planet by achieving green and sustainable goals.

Retailers that adopt linerless labeling boost efficiency, increase throughput, and reduce waste. The time and resources saved when compared to traditional labels can be redirected towards more critical operations. Furthermore, by reducing liner waste, it maximizes uptime while minimizing environmental impact, making it a sustainable choice for businesses and the environment.
