Sato Liner less Labels

SATO linerless labels offer a number of significant advantages for customers. They provide more labels per rolls than regular lined labels as well as playing a positive role in other business operations. These benefits include lower waste disposal costs (50% of the weight of standard label rolls is simply discarded), savings on labour and transport plus increased efficiency, all of which result in lower cost of ownership, while lowering carbon footprints.

Sato Linerless Labels refer to a type of linerless thermal label manufactured by Sato, a well-known company that specializes in industrial labeling and barcode printing solutions. Linerless labels do not have a backing paper or liner, which means they don’t require an additional layer to be peeled off before application. This makes them more eco-friendly and cost-effective compared to traditional labels that come with a liner.

Key Features of Sato Linerless Labels:

1. No Backing Paper: As the name suggests, linerless labels don’t have the traditional release liner (the backing paper) that most standard thermal labels have. This eliminates the waste associated with liners.
2. Eco-Friendly: By eliminating the liner, Sato linerless labels reduce waste, making them more environmentally friendly and sustainable. This also means fewer label roll changes, which can further reduce operational waste.
3. Cost-Effective: Linerless labels are more economical as you don’t need to dispose of backing paper, and you get more labels per roll. In fact, linerless labels typically have more labels per roll than standard labels of the same width.
4. Optimized for Thermal Printing: Like other thermal labels, linerless labels are designed for direct thermal printers, which use heat to print on the label material. Some Sato printers are specifically designed to accommodate and print on linerless labels.
5. Variety of Uses: Linerless labels are used in applications such as shipping, retail, inventory tracking, logistics, and point-of-sale (POS) printing.
6. Special Coating: The labels have a special coating that helps prevent the adhesive from sticking to the thermal print head or rollers, which can be an issue with certain printers that aren’t designed for linerless printing.
7. Heat Resistance: Since they are thermal labels, they typically have heat-resistant properties to withstand the temperature from the printer.

Advantages of Sato Linerless Labels:

• More Labels per Roll: Without the backing paper, you can fit more labels on the roll, reducing the frequency of roll changes and improving productivity.
• No Waste: The absence of a liner means there’s no waste associated with liner disposal.
• Improved Adhesive Technology: Sato uses advanced adhesive technology to ensure that the labels stick properly during application, while avoiding problems like “adhesive transfer” where sticky residue can be left on the printer.

Considerations:

• Printer Compatibility: Not all thermal printers can handle linerless labels. You’ll need to use a printer that supports these labels, like some of the specialized Sato thermal printers. Be sure to verify if your printer is compatible with linerless labels.
• Label Size and Configuration: Linerless labels typically come in various sizes, and it’s essential to choose the correct size for your application. Sato offers different sizes to accommodate different needs.

Popular Sato Linerless Label Models:

• Sato CLNX Series: This is a series of industrial thermal printers that can support linerless labels.
• Sato PW Series: Portable printers for retail and logistics that are compatible with linerless labels.
• Sato M84Pro: Another model that supports high-performance thermal printing, often used in industrial environments with linerless options.
