The suggested labelling system for cartons that will be on the shelf for over a year is?
-
Direct thermal
-
Thermal transfer
-
Pressure sensitive
-
Hot melt label
Correct Answer
A. Thermal transferExplanation
Thermal transfer is the suggested labelling system for cartons that will be on the shelf for over a year. This method uses a thermal print head to transfer ink from a ribbon onto the label, creating a long-lasting and durable print. Unlike direct thermal printing, which fades over time, thermal transfer labels can withstand exposure to light, heat, and moisture, making them ideal for long-term storage. Pressure sensitive and hot melt labels are not specifically designed for long-term durability, making thermal transfer the best option in this scenario.Rate this question:
