Easy Handling of shipments with Shipping Labels


In handling the products which pass through multiple channels before they are being placed on the shelves of a retail store, it is important to use Tags & Labels to keep a track of your consignment.

If the shipping label is being used by some mail carrier, it will display the details of originating and destination addresses.

Freight Labels help in tracking the logistics, contribute in staying compliant with specified norms and regulations (for example indicating hazardous items), handling advice like fragile objects, stacking instructions etc.

It is recommended to check and ensure that each container is labeled and the label contains complete address of shipment destination along with telephone number. Another consideration which adds value to the process of labeling is the placement of labels should be such that they are visible easily. Moreover, they should be pasted on the containers on same position so that one can access to information given on a relatively larger no. of containers.

These labels carry information which is a combination of bar code, numbers and letters. They are printed clearly and of good quality so that they are clear and easy to read. Moreover, the information made available on shipping labels should be such that it is readable by both machines and human beings. These can be printed by using a laser printer, inkjet printer or a specifically designed thermal label printer.

Today, even waterproof laminated labels are available which are of use for labeling of hazardous chemicals etc. where the label is expected to be of use and needs to be readable even after 3 months despite being in contact with sea water.
