Polyester satin labels provide a premium, smooth surface with an optical white finish, delivering excellent print contrast for barcodes, text and branding. This makes them ideal for applications such as care labels, mattress labels and product identification, where clarity and durability are essential for compliance and traceability. Their soft textile feel also makes them suitable for applications where labels may come into direct contact with finished goods or end users. Nylon labels offer a more robust alternative, delivering strength and resistance to handling in demanding environments such as manufacturing, automotive and chemical processing, where long-lasting identification is critical.
When used with the Epson ColorWorks range, both polyester satin and nylon materials produce consistent, high-resolution full colour output using water-based inkjet technology. This enables businesses to print variable data, hazard information and branding in a single pass, reducing reliance on pre-printed stock while improving efficiency. Print-on-demand capability helps minimise waste, simplify label inventory and support more responsive production processes. At Labfax, we work closely with customers to ensure the right material is selected and optimised for each application, helping to improve performance, reduce downtime and deliver reliable, compliant labelling solutions.
