Industrial-strength barcode scanner labels can survive most ...

Barcode readers help businesses organize their inventory tracking, but labels offer management assistance as well. Companies can use thermal transfer and direct thermal barcode labels to ensure consistent tracking throughout an organization.

Thermal transfer labels are an ideal option for many businesses, providing a smooth surface for high-quality printing. Businesses use the labels to track a variety of goods, but regardless of the item, the labels will likely stick. The thermal transfer design includes a permanent adhesive, ensuring companies can use them for any barcode systems or price tags. 

Direct thermal label printers help vendors because many of these devices do not require a ribbon, which can help save money on replacement costs. However, users' options are limited as they can print only black text on the labels that will darken as they are exposed to heat and sunlight. In addition, the labels will last less than a year, making them popular for food vendors as they sell products with expiration dates.

Zebra offers a full selection of barcode printer thermal transfer and direct thermal labels to suit any company's needs. The labels give businesses options as they search for ways to improve inventory tracking.
