Tips For Applying Hologram Labels

We add a special "dots" release pattern to our hologram labels that make tampering very evident. Some security labels and seals use words like "VOID" or "OPENED" or they use other shapes or symbols. These stickers also use a release construction similar to the "dot" approach.

Typically, the release pattern will appear when an attempt to remove a from its application surface is attempted. Please note that certain conditions can cause the tamper evident "dots" or other to being advertently activated when the label is in the process of being affixed to its application surface. This is called "pre-triggering".

Here are some tips to help you avoid "pre-triggering" of the tamper evident feature:

Minimize Contact

Minimize contact and pressure with the adhesive (sticky) side of the label. Using the lightest possible pressure to manually remove the label from the liner. Transfer to your finger tip and then immediately apply the label to the application surface. The more the adhesive side is handled with pressure, the more likely the tamper evident feature will "pre-trigger" and activate.

Try Using Skin Moisturizers

Before removing labels, rub skin moisturizerin to the tips of the fingers that will contact the adhesive side of the label. This added moisture will reduce the chance of activating the tamper evident "dots" during application. Dry or chapped finger tips, are more likely to "pre-trigger" or activate the tamper evident "dots".

• Use "Rubber Finger Tips"
• 

Wearing common rubber finger tips on the finger that will contact the adhesive side of the sticker can also reduce "pre-triggering". Choose rubber finger tips that have smooth sides rather than nubby sides. The smooth side works better. If nubby sides are all that you have, turn the rubber finger tip inside out to expose the smooth side. Most office supply stores stock rubber finger tips in their envelope and paper sections.

Remove the label from the roll with you finger tip, using as little contact and pressure as possible.

• Flag The Label
• 

Flagging the label means to peel back a portion of the liner (backer) to expose a small area of the adhesive (sticky) side of the label. Apply the the exposed are of the adhesive to the application surface, then peel away the remainder of the liner to fully attach the label.

Do Not Use Metal Or Plastic Instruments

Using a knife blades, tweezers or any hard, dry tool or device is NOT recommended for affixing hologram labels with release patterns. Hard, dry surfaces will cause "pre-triggering" of the tamper evident release "dots" or pattern. If you need more information about applying your hologram labels, please conatct CustomerCare.
