Select direct thermal labels made with a phenol-free developer as an alternative to traditional phenol-based chemistry.
Explore labels designed for applications where the face stock disperses and the adhesive dissolves under running water.
Linerless labels do not require a traditional release liner, helping eliminate the liner waste associated with conventional label formats.
Compare the material and adhesive characteristics of these featured Zebra supplies to help identify options for your application.
