In today's increasingly complex supply chains and competitive consumer markets, product authenticity and traceability have become more important than ever. One innovative labeling solution that is transforming how brands protect their products and engage consumers is the One-Item-One-Code label, also known as “unique QR code labeling.” What Is a One-Item-One-Code Label? A One-Item-One-Code label assigns a unique, scannable code—usually a QR code—to each individual product unit. Unlike traditional barcodes or batch codes, these dynamic codes are generated for every single piece, enabling full product-level identification, tracking, and verification. Once scanned using a smartphone, the code can: Authenticate whether the product is genuine or counterfeit Provide traceability details such as production date, origin, and distribution path Connect customers directly to the brand’s official website, promotional content, or warranty registration Record consumer interactions for market insights and loyalty programs Why Choose One-Item-One-Code Labels? Our factory specializes in custom printing anti-counterfeit QR code labels on a wide range of materials such as coated paper, PET, or synthetic film. These labels are often paired with tamper-evident or destructible adhesives to further enhance security. Key benefits include: Anti-counterfeiting: Difficult to replicate since each code is unique and tied to a centralized database Consumer trust: Gives customers a quick and easy way to verify the product's origin Supply chain monitoring: Track product flow from production to point of sale Marketing integration: QR codes can lead to personalized promotions or after-sales service platforms Our Capabilities As a professional label manufacturer, we offer: High-speed digital printing of serialized QR codes and barcodes Custom adhesive options including tamper-evident and removable types Support for scratch-off printing or multi-layer formats for added security Flexo and offset printing combinations for premium branding effects Applications One-item-one-code labels are widely used across: Health supplements and pharmaceuticals Cosmetics and skincare Alcohol and premium beverages Electronics and smart appliances Agricultural and food products Looking to enhance your product security or run QR-driven marketing campaigns?

Common Labeling Issues and Solutions In product packaging, labels may seem like a small detail, but they play a vital role in brand messaging, product identification, and user experience. However, many brands encounter a frustrating issue during application or distribution — labels peeling off, bubbling, or smudging.   Why does this happen? This article breaks down the common causes of label failure and provides practical solutions to help you choose the right materials and adhesives for your application.   Common Issues You Might Have Experienced: ⊗ Labels start peeling shortly after application ⊗ Bubbling or wrinkling after refrigeration or condensation ⊗ Labels smudge or scratch easily when touched ⊗ Labels shift or detach during shipping, even if they looked fine at first Though these problems appear different, they often point to the same root causes: incompatible materials or inadequate adhesive performance.   Top 5 Causes of Label Adhesion Failure 1. Material-Surface Incompatibility Certain packaging materials (like rough surfaces, PP plastics, or oily glass) have low surface energy, which makes it hard for standard adhesives to bond properly. 2. Incorrect Adhesive Selection Not all labels can use general-purpose adhesive. For example, refrigerated or frozen products require freezer-grade adhesives, while oily containers need extra-strength bonding. 3. Environmental Factors Ignored Temperature changes, humidity, or product handling during transport can impact label performance if not accounted for during material selection. 4. Contaminated Surface Dirt, oil, moisture, or powder on the container before labeling can significantly reduce adhesive strength. 5. Improper Finishing or Lamination Materials like coated paper may bubble if not laminated, while untreated PP film can crack or peel under bending stress or moisture exposure.   Solutions Based on Different Applications   Application Recommended Material Recommended Adhesive Notes Frozen Foods Synthetic paper / PP Freezer-grade strong adhesive Performs below -20°C Cold Beverages PP + Lamination Cold-resistant / strong general Must resist condensation and moisture Oily Containers PET / Synthetic Paper Extra-strength adhesive Clean surface before labeling Cosmetics (Smooth Surfaces) Coated Paper + Lamination Medium-strong adhesive Aesthetic finish matters Outdoor Use PET / PVC UV-resistant waterproof adhesive Requires sun and water resistance   A beverage brand experienced bubbling on their labels during seasonal changes. After reviewing their packaging setup, we discovered they were still using standard adhesive, even though their product had moved to cold chain storage. We upgraded their label to PP film + freezer adhesive + lamination, and the issue was fully resolved, with significantly improved adhesion performance.   Pro Tips Before Choosing Your Label Will the product be refrigerated or frozen? Is the container surface smooth, oily, or textured? Will the label face water, sunlight, or abrasion? What core size and layout does your labeling machine support?   Want to Avoid Peeling Labels? We Can Help. We know that label requirements vary across industries and environments. That’s why we offer: Free material samples for testing Professional material and adhesive recommendations One-on-one support through the proofing process We make sure every label not only sticks well — but represents your brand effectively.   Contact Us Facing label issues?

Many customers struggle with labeling on small-diameter tubes — one of the most common issues being label edge lifting or curling. Based on our experience in label manufacturing, here are a few practical tips to help you reduce or avoid this problem: 1. Choose a solvent-based adhesive when possible. Solvent adhesives tend to offer better stability and stronger cohesion. While hot melt adhesives have high initial tack, they often have lower cohesion and may lead to adhesive stringing and curling issues over time. 2. Option for thinner face stock materials. Materials like 60gsm semi-gloss paper, PE, and 54U synthetic paper are commonly used and better suited for curved surfaces due to their flexibility and thinness. 3. Be cautious with lamination if using paper face stock. Avoid film lamination on paper labels for small-diameter applications. The added tension from the film can cause curling. Also, when designing labels, try not to fully connect the start and end of the label — leaving a small gap can help release stress and reduce curling. 4. Always test before full production. Even with the right materials, testing is essential. Different substrates, tube diameters, and application conditions can all affect the final label performance. As a professional manufacturer of self-adhesive label materials, we’re always here to help. If you’re facing labeling challenges, feel free to reach out and discuss — we’re happy to offer guidance or provide samples for testing.

As product packaging evolves, space on labels is becoming more valuable than ever—especially for products that require detailed information, multiple languages, or promotional content. That’s where multi-layer labels, also known as peel-off labels or extended content labels, come into play.   What Is a Multi-layer Label? A multi-layer label is made of two or three layers of material that are laminated together but designed to be easily peeled apart and resealed. These labels allow brands to fit much more information within the same label area—without compromising the visual design of the front label. These labels are commonly used in industries such as: Food & Beverage (for nutritional facts, recipes, promotions) Cosmetics (for ingredients, multilingual usage instructions) Pharmaceuticals/Health Product (for dosage, warnings, legal disclaimers) Chemicals (for handling instructions, certifications) Benefits of Multi-layer Labels 1. Space-saving Design You can provide necessary product details, regulations, or multilingual text without increasing your label size. 2. Durability and Reusability Our multi-layer labels use high-quality adhesives that allow the top layer to be opened and resealed multiple times without tearing or curling. 3. Customizable for Your Brand Choose from clear or white film, various finishes like gloss, matte, or even foil-stamped layers to match your branding needs. 4. Cost-efficient for Export Products For companies exporting to multiple countries, multi-layer labels are a practical solution to include various languages and compliance details—all on one label. Printing Technology and Material Options We produce multi-layer labels using advanced flexographic and offset printing, with optional spot UV, cold foil, and lamination finishes. Common materials include: Synthetic paper for chemical resistance Removable or permanent adhesive, based on your application needs Labels can be customized for automatic labeling machines, with roll direction, gap, and core size tailored to your production line. Is a Multi-layer Label Right for You? If you: Need to fit a lot of information in a small space Sell in multilingual markets Run promotional campaigns with hidden codes or QR scans Want to comply with strict industry regulations Then a multi-layer label might be the perfect fit.

In today’s world, where sustainability and recycling are more important than ever, wash-off labels are becoming a popular choice for brands looking to reduce environmental impact—without compromising on visual appeal. What is a Wash-Off Label? A wash-off label is a type of self-adhesive label designed to be easily removed from containers during the washing process—typically during recycling. Unlike traditional labels that leave adhesive residue or are difficult to peel off, wash-off labels use specially formulated adhesives that release cleanly when exposed to hot or cold water, depending on the application. How Does It Work? The key to wash-off labels lies in their adhesive technology. These labels stay firmly attached during transportation, storage, and use. However, when placed in a water bath—commonly at 60–80°C in industrial washing lines—the adhesive deactivates, allowing the label to separate cleanly from the container. This makes it easier to recycle the bottle or jar without additional cleaning or sorting steps. Key Benefits Recyclability: Supports bottle-to-bottle recycling, especially for PET and glass containers. No Residue: Leaves no glue or paper behind, reducing contamination in the recycling stream. High Durability: Performs well under condensation, refrigeration, and light abrasion. Versatility: Suitable for both clear and colored containers, including glass and plastic. Customizable: Can be printed in full color, with options for matte, gloss, or textured finishes. Typical Applications Wash-off labels are widely used in industries where sustainability is a focus: Mineral Water Bottles (PET or glass) Juice & Beverage Products Beer Bottles with Return Systems Reusable Personal Care Containers Dairy and Yogurt Packaging Why Choose Wash-Off Labels? As consumer awareness of sustainable packaging grows, brands are under pressure to offer eco-friendly solutions that align with recycling standards and reduce waste. Wash-off labels allow you to meet these expectations—while maintaining product shelf appeal and regulatory compliance. Interested in switching to wash-off labels?

In recent years, transparent labels have become increasingly popular in the beverage industry — from bottled water and juices to premium teas and flavored drinks. But why are so many brands choosing clear labels over traditional opaque designs? Here’s a look at the reasons behind this trend: Foil StampingA popular finishing technique in label printing that adds a metallic or pigmented effect to specific areas of a label. Enhance Your Brand's IP making logos, mascots, or signature design elements more vivid, recognizable, and memorable. No Label Look Creates a premium, minimalistic look.   1. Creates a “No-Label Look” That Highlights the Product Clear labels are often used to achieve a sleek, modern, and minimalistic design. When applied to transparent containers like PET or glass bottles, the label becomes almost invisible, allowing the drink itself to take center stage. This “no-label look” is especially popular for mineral water and high-end beverages, conveying purity, freshness, and quality at a glance.   2. Enhances Brand Perception with Simplicity Consumers today tend to prefer clean, simple, and honest packaging. Transparent labels align with these preferences by reducing visual clutter and helping products stand out through subtlety rather than boldness. This type of packaging can convey a sense of premium positioning, particularly in crowded supermarket shelves.   3. Flexible Design Compatibility Clear labels provide a versatile background that works well with a variety of design elements — metallic fonts, white ink, matte or glossy finishes, spot UV, and hot stamping. Designers have more freedom to create elegant and innovative visuals that don’t rely on a colored background.   4. Shows the Product Inside — Builds Trust For many beverages, especially natural juices, teas, or flavored waters, showing the actual color and consistency of the drink can build consumer confidence. Transparent labels allow the content to be seen without obstruction, reinforcing the product's transparency — both literally and figuratively.   5. Sustainability and Material Reduction Compared to full wrap-around labels, clear film labels can be smaller and thinner while still delivering strong visual impact. Many brands are also using recyclable materials like BOPP or PET film with wash-off adhesives, supporting environmentally conscious packaging strategies.   Final Thoughts Choosing transparent labels is not just a design trend — it’s a strategic move that aligns with consumer expectations for authenticity, simplicity, and sustainability. If you're launching a beverage product or considering a packaging update, transparent film labels might be the key to capturing modern consumer attention. At Jinke Label, we specialize in producing high-quality clear labels with a variety of material and adhesive options tailored to your bottle type and branding needs.
