Sealing and resealable labels
One label, several functions
Need to seal a pack, show that it has not been opened or make it easy to open and close repeatedly? Sealing and resealable labels can serve several purposes, from keeping packaging closed to allowing repeated opening and providing a clear indication that a pack has been opened.
Nordvalls helps you find the right label solution for your packaging, materials, application and required function. With a choice of materials, adhesives, sizes, shapes and print options, we combine practical performance with design.
What is a sealing label?
A sealing label is used to seal a pack, bag, carton or other product. It keeps the packaging closed and can also form part of the product’s design and brand experience.
Sealing labels are used on food packaging, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, e-commerce packaging and other products that need to stay closed. They can be discreet and transparent or printed with a logo, instructions or other information.
The seal can also incorporate a tamper-evident feature, making it possible to see whether the packaging has been opened. Sealing labels can therefore serve both a practical and a communication purpose.
What is a resealable label?
A resealable label is designed to be opened and reapplied several times. This makes it particularly useful for packs whose contents are used over several occasions and need protection between uses.
Resealable labels are used on bags of food, snacks, coffee, confectionery and other products that consumers open and close throughout the product’s life.
The adhesive and label construction need to be specifically suited to repeated opening and resealing.
Resealable labels for different types of packaging and products
Food
For bags, tubs and other packaging for products such as coffee, snacks and confectionery, allowing consumers to open the pack and close it again between uses.
Cosmetics and personal care
For products whose packaging needs to open and reseal to keep the contents protected and fresh between uses.
Pharmaceuticals
Packaging may need a secure seal that can be checked for signs of opening. Security features and tamper evidence can be particularly important in these applications.
E-commerce
Sealing labels can be used on bags, cartons and other shipping packaging. Printed labels can also enhance the brand experience when customers unpack their orders.
