High-speed die-cutting & rewinding line
Every purchasing manager knows the struggle: choose a label that falls off, and your returns skyrocket. Choose a permanent one, and you pay for it in labor and damaged goods. Here’s what we hear every day from US buyers:
You don’t have to compromise between “stays on” and “comes off clean.” Kingcolor engineered the solution.
Our low tack sticky thermal labels are formulated with a proprietary acrylic adhesive that hits the sweet spot: strong enough to survive logistics, weak enough to remove cleanly. No residue. No rework. No delays.
We tune the adhesive to your surface (cardboard, plastic, glass, or metal). Using PSTC-101 test standards, we deliver consistent peel values from 5–20 N/m.
Our removable thermal labels leave no adhesive ghosting on substrates, even after 6+ months of application. Perfect for reusable containers and return logistics.
We ship direct 10–15 days from order. Air freight ready. Our US partners typically save 25–40% on landed cost compared to local suppliers.
Need a specific size, core diameter, or adhesive pattern? Our in-house R&D team (15 engineers) will prototype and ship samples within 72 hours.

A low tack sticky thermal label is a label with reduced adhesive strength, designed to be removed cleanly without leaving residue. It is commonly used for temporary labeling on sensitive surfaces, reusable containers, and inventory management. It can be direct thermal or thermal transfer printable.
We follow the PSTC-101 peel adhesion test standard. Each batch is tested for peel strength, shear holding power, and removability. Our automated coaters guarantee +/- 5% adhesive weight consistency across the entire roll.
