Achieve Flawless Accuracy and Sustainability with Premium Shipping Labels
Blog Article
In shipping, label integrity is everything. Incorrect or unscannable labels can cost organizations an average of $89,000 annually in direct losses alone, and that excludes hidden costs like delays and reputation damage (SCMR).
Upgrading to 4″ × 6″ Zebra‑compatible direct thermal rolls not only ensures crisp, scan‑ready barcodes but also supports eco‑friendly practices on every DHL Shipping Label you produce.
Prevent Costly Mis‑Labels and Chargebacks
A global survey found U.S. manufacturers lose roughly $1.17 million per year from production line shutdowns caused by label‑printing issues (PharmaCommerce).
Direct thermal printers produce high‑contrast barcodes embedded in the label material, virtually eliminating smudges and scan failures that trigger chargebacks.
Meet GS1 Traceability Standards
GS1 traceability standards require interoperable labeling systems to track products end‑to‑end across complex supply chains.
By embedding serialized barcodes and batch identifiers on each label, you ensure compliance with global regulations such as the FDA’s FSMA Final Rule, reducing audit risk and enhancing visibility (PCA).
Champion Sustainable Materials
EcoEnclose’s zero‑waste liners—made of 100 % recycled, curbside‑recyclable content—set the bar for green shipping labels, eliminating plastic‑ribbon waste.
Opting for BPA‑ and BPS‑free coatings further protects recycling streams from chemical contamination, aligning with environmental regulations and corporate ESG goals.
Harness Recycled Fiber Benefits
Incorporating recycled fiber content into label liners reduces demand for virgin materials, cutting carbon emissions and resource consumption without sacrificing print quality.
This shift not only demonstrates sustainability leadership but also resonates with eco‑conscious consumers.
Best Practices for Flawless Application
Surface Prep: Wipe carton surfaces clean of dust and oils to ensure strong adhesion.
Controlled Storage: Keep rolls at 5 °C–30 °C and 20–50 % relative humidity to preserve performance (3Ree Labels).
Correct Loading: Align 4″ × 6″ rolls in portrait orientation for consistent feed and jam‑free printing.
Elevate Brand Reputation
Clear, durable, and sustainable labels reduce delivery errors by up to 98 %, fostering customer trust and minimizing returns.
More than just a label, your choice of materials sends a powerful message about reliability and environmental stewardship.
