A label reflects the quality of
a company and its products
Zygology Systems has long been recognised as a supplier of high-end synthetics
labels.
However, we are equally adept at manufacturing low-cost paper and custom labels.
Too many label choices?
Because of the multitude
of label materials, adhesives and thermal ribbons it can be difficult
for label specifiers to make the right choice. When it comes to choosing
a label supplier things are no easier!
Our
customers range from those using high-volume paper labels on cartons to those
applying synthetic
labels to plastics.

How we can help
We are a providor of label solutions
with access to the most advanced label materials and adhesives. Whether
it is a PC board label which must withstand soldering temperatures and an
acid bath wash, or a paper label to meet bar code
compliance requirements, we have the expertise
to ensure customers receive superior quality labels that
meet their needs.
Labels are a combination of
topcoat, paper or film (PE, polyester etc.), adhesive, release
coating and release liner. For thermal transfer printing the products
are then matched to an appropriate ribbon and printer.

for label
Custom labels and tags are available in an infinite variety
of sizes and materials. Paper labels are used for box or carton labelling. Synthetic labels
are fixed to products as they need to be durable and last for the life
of the product. Synthetic labels range from low-cost polyethylene and
polypropylene to ultra-durable polyimide.
We
have products that give reliable performance on a wide range of difficult
surfaces. We can manufacture and supply labels that are tough enough
to endure extremes of temperature and solvent exposure that destroy lesser
products.
