The publication of the article follows an update to ID Images’ stock of direct thermal labels, which clients can purchase for logistics, transportation, and other sectors that require package identification.

The cost-effectiveness of thermal printing has led to increased demand for the method, particularly for the healthcare, retail, transportation, and logistics industries. One 2020 report by Markets and Markets projected that the thermal printing market will grow from 43.2 billion USD to 53.5 billion USD by 2025, reflecting its heightening popularity.

Direct thermal labels, which are produced via thermal printing technology, differ from standard labels in that they are made from heat-sensitive paper. ID Images explains that when this paper is passed under a thermal print head, specific areas blacken to form barcodes, text, and graphics. Because neither ink, toner, nor ribbons are needed during the process, this technology presents logistics companies with a more efficient and affordable way to produce labels for tracking and inventory management.

There are other advantages to direct thermal labels that make them well-suited to logistics. Firstly, they can be printed in high volumes at shorter intervals, and they can be applied immediately after printing, drastically reducing processing times. Thermal printing technology also allows for high-resolution prints, ensuring barcodes and text can be scanned with greater accuracy and reducing the chances of errors.

Furthermore, modern direct thermal labels are designed to resist fading, moisture, and abrasion, allowing them to withstand rough handling and a variety of harsh environments. Because of these unique characteristics, ID Images says they are ideal for warehousing, shipping and receiving, last-mile delivery services, and cold chain logistics.

However, the company also notes that long-term exposure to excessive heat or light can cause direct thermal labels to fade. While care should be taken when using them in such environments, ID Images says that damage can be avoided with the appropriate label materials and protective overlays. Customers looking for such options are encouraged to speak to one of ID Images’ label experts for product recommendations.
