Frequently Asked Questions
What materials are used for technical labels at SITAPRESS?
Can technical labels include variable data, unique serial numbers, and QR codes?
What tamper-evident security features are available in SITAPRESS technical labels?
How do I choose the right adhesive for my technical label application?
Adhesive selection depends on several key factors: the substrate material (smooth metal, rough powder coating, painted surface, low-surface-energy plastic), the operating temperature range (standard, high-temp, or low-temp), environmental exposure (humidity, UV, chemicals, immersion), and whether permanent bonding or controlled removability is required. SITAPRESS analyzes your full application requirements and recommends the optimal adhesive system. Contact us with details about your surface material, operating environment, and any special requirements for a tailored recommendation.
What protective coatings are available for technical labels?
To increase the durability of the printed surface, SITAPRESS offers a clear matte or gloss laminate (BOPP, PET) for abrasion and scratch protection, UV coating for outdoor durability and fade resistance, chemical-resistant coating for environments with oils, acids, or organic solvents, and heat-resistant coating for applications near heat sources. A protective coating is available as an optional add-on for any order.
What is the minimum order quantity and lead time for technical labels?
The minimum order is flexible — SITAPRESS produces everything from small prototype batches for development departments to high-volume production runs. Standard lead time is 7–10 business days from artwork or drawing approval. Expedited production is available on request. Quotes are always free and non-binding — we respond within 1–3 hours.
Are SITAPRESS technical labels suitable for outdoor applications?
Yes. SITAPRESS produces technical labels fully suitable for outdoor applications when the correct material and adhesive combination is specified. UV-stable inks, weatherproof polyester substrates rated for outdoor exposure, and outdoor-grade pressure-sensitive adhesives are all available and routinely used for outdoor equipment identification. Labels can be designed to maintain full legibility and adhesion performance under direct sunlight, rain, humidity, and temperature cycling between -40°C and +120°C depending on the specification. Please specify outdoor requirements during your inquiry.
The Sitapress production process is certified according to ISO9001:2015
