Pressure-sensitive stickers (also known as self-adhesive stickers) are stickers pre-coated with pressure-sensitive adhesive and backed by a release liner; they can be applied simply by peeling off the backing. Key characteristics include:
Peel-and-stick application: No water, glue, or other tools are required, making them suitable for rapid application.
Diverse materials: Common substrates include PVC (approx. 0.08–0.15 mm thick) and PET (0.05–0.1 mm), with some options utilizing eco-friendly paper bases (such as FSC-certified kraft paper).
Adhesion levels: Categorized by application into low-tack (e.g., temporary labels), medium-tack (general decoration), and high-tack (outdoor advertising); adhesion strength is typically measured in N/25mm (referencing the GB/T 4851-2014 standard).
