- How long do thermal printed labels last?
Because it uses heat-sensitive materials, direct thermal labels do not have a long shelf-life, usually lasting around six to eight months. They have a tendency to scratch easily, and overexposure to direct sunlight or high temperatures will cause the print to fade faster.
- How do you keep thermal labels from fading?
Avoid extended UV exposure to prevent the labels from fading too quickly. Storing your labels in a cabinet with a door or in a breathable opaque container will shield them from harmful light.
