PLACARD LABEL FAQs
Which Placard is right for you?
We offer a wide range of label holding solutions that enhance smooth intra-logistic processes. But how do you know which Placard to choose? Please find the table above which details our qualities and sizes.
What kind(s) of reusable packaging can the Placard be used with?
The Container Placard is well suited for a broad range of reusable packaging items. This includes plastic totes, cardboard boxes and metal containers. In order to meet your needs, we offer a wide range of Placard label holders.
Which type of Placard should I choose?
The Placard label holder is available for a broad range of applications. Which type is best for you is determined by:
Container material
Plastics (HDPE, LDPE, PP, EPP, EPS, PC, PVC, ABS, etc.), Glass, Aluminium, Steel (painted, galvanised, …)
Surface
The Container Placard is developed to adhere to flat surfaces. If the surface of your container is ribbed or perforated, we recommend the Board Placard, also distributed by us.
Water resistance
The standard Placard can withstand normal amounts of water. However, even more resistant types, suited for intensive cleaning and washing processes, are available. Please contact us for more information.
Outdoor conditions
Even though normal outdoor conditions will not affect the standard Placard, we offer specific Placard products capable of withstanding outdoor weathering and even UV-radiation. Please contact us for more information.
What are the standard sizes of the Placard?
Please see the tables above with details on specific products, dimensions, etc.
What temperatures can the Placard withstand?
Depending on the type of Placard, the product can withstand temperatures between -40°C and +120°C. When you first apply the Placard on the packaging container, the temperature should not be below 10°C for the next 24 hours.
In which industries is the Placard label holder used?
We offer placard labels to the following industries and more:
Automotive
Agricultural Chemical
Chemical / Industrial
Distribution
Electrics / Electronics
Food & Beverage
Moving/(or: Removals)
Medical / Healthcare
Precision Engineering
Retail
Sports
Storage and Archiving
Tobacco
Wholesale
Do I need to use special adhesive labels on the Placard?
No. The Placard has been designed to receive most standard permanent adhesive labels. If in doubt, please contact us and we will provide you with expert advice and support.
What is the useful life of the Placard?
If applied correctly, the Placard label holder has the same useful life as the returnable transport item on which it is applied. The special top coating retains its unique characteristics year after year, whilst the Placard remains in its original position. It is therefore important to follow the application instructions correctly in order to optimise the durability of the Placard label holder.
Can the Placard ultimately be removed to recycle the packaging?
The Placard is made of a tear-resistant base film. It can be removed from the returnable packaging container, if needed. It might be better to remove the Placard first in the case of expensive packaging materials like polycarbonate. That way, you safeguard their high recycling value. Please contact us for more details.
