Pressure-Sensitive Labels (PSL)
These are self-adhesive labels with a pre-applied adhesive that stick when pressed onto a surface. They can be printed using various methods, including flexographic, offset, or digital.
Pressure Sensitive Labels
Reliable, durable, and precise—pressure-sensitive labels deliver consistent quality for every product. With easy application and superior print results, they’re the smart choice for businesses that take packaging seriously.

We produce self-adhesive, digital, linerless, peel & reveal, C-wrap, laminated, reverse-printed, sheeted, and sequentially numbered labels, delivering precision, flexibility, and performance for every application.
Pressure Sensitive vs. Digital
Take a look below to see the differences between using Pressure Sensitive and Digital Labels.
Digital Labels
These are created using digital printing technology (e.g., HP Indigo). They offer high-quality, high-speed, variable data printing (like custom names) and are ideal for small, cost-effective batches.
The Combination
Digital printing is frequently used to print on pressure-sensitive substrates (paper or film)
Transforming Labels into Lasting Impressions
From hot and cold foil to embossing, laminates, screen print, tactile varnishes, metallic inks, and unique die cuts, our embellishments deliver standout impact. With options like peel & reveal, multiply, reverse printing, and premium finishes — gloss, matt or satin — we combine creativity and precision for labels that truly differentiate.
