S L Conyers & Son Ltd is a Birmingham-based, family-run label supplier with more than 50 years of experience and nationwide UK supply.

Provide the intended use, size, quantity, surface, environment, artwork, colours, material preferences, variable data and any delivery requirements.

A self-adhesive label combines a printable face material with pressure-sensitive adhesive and a release liner so it can be applied without separate glue.

The best material depends on exposure to moisture, abrasion, temperature, chemicals, UV, cleaning and handling. Durable synthetics and suitable adhesives may be considered for harsher applications.

Yes. Materials and print constructions can be selected for applications where resistance to water or moisture is important, although the exact specification should match the real conditions.

Yes. Bespoke labels can be produced in different shapes and dimensions, subject to the selected print process and tooling requirements.

Yes. Custom labels can incorporate logos, colours, text and other brand elements supplied or approved by the customer.

Industrial labels are durable identification labels used on equipment, assets, components, stock, machinery, locations or processes in commercial and industrial environments.

Asset labels help identify physical equipment and can carry asset numbers, barcodes, QR codes, ownership details or other references used in an asset register.

An asset label describes the business purpose of identifying an asset, while a barcode describes a machine-readable data format. An asset label can therefore include a barcode.

Yes. Suitable label runs can include changing serial numbers, codes or other variable information where each label needs a unique identifier.

Barcode labels are used for inventory, logistics, product identification, asset tracking, point-of-sale, warehouse locations and other scanning-based processes.

Barcode type, dimensions, contrast, print quality, quiet zones, surface, scanner and operating environment all influence scanning performance.

Yes. They are commonly used for stock locations, pallets, bins, inventory, picking, goods-in and dispatch workflows.

Yes. Human-readable numbers, descriptions, serial references or other information can be printed alongside the machine-readable code.

Chemical labels identify chemical products or containers and may communicate product, hazard, handling and supplier information according to the applicable classification and regulatory requirements.

GHS pictograms are standardised hazard symbols used within the Globally Harmonized System to communicate particular classes of chemical hazard.

CLP refers to classification, labelling and packaging rules for chemicals. The precise legal requirements depend on the jurisdiction and product, so duty holders should confirm current requirements for their market.

The product duty holder is responsible for correct classification and required legal information. A label manufacturer can reproduce customer-approved content and help with physical label specification.

Yes. Drum labels can be produced, with size, face material and adhesive selected around the drum surface and expected handling or exposure.

Many do, but not every application is the same. The specification should reflect storage, transport, handling and exposure conditions.

Warning labels communicate hazards, precautions, prohibited actions, mandatory actions or other safety information on equipment, products and in workplaces.

Yes, provided the customer specifies or approves the symbols and wording required for the application.

No. Labels are one communication measure and should form part of the organisation’s wider safety and risk-management arrangements.

Product labels can provide branding, identification, instructions, ingredients or technical information, barcodes, batch data and other information required by the product and market.

Yes. Labels can be designed around the packaging, brand presentation, application method and information that needs to be displayed.

Yes, many label types can be supplied on rolls. The preferred core, winding direction and application method should be discussed where machine application is involved.

Sheet labels can be practical for lower quantities, manual application and situations where users prefer handling labels in sheets rather than rolls.

Thermal labels are designed for direct thermal or thermal-transfer printing systems used to add variable information such as barcodes, addresses and product data.

Direct thermal media reacts to heat from the printhead, while thermal-transfer printing uses a ribbon to transfer ink-like material onto the label face.

Hot foil printing uses heat and pressure to transfer foil onto a label, often creating a crisp decorative or functional finish for suitable designs and quantities.

Flexographic printing uses flexible printing plates and is commonly suited to efficient production of labels on rolls, particularly at larger quantities.

Digital label printing creates artwork directly from digital files without conventional printing plates, which can be useful for colour work, shorter runs and changing designs.

Blackout labels use an opaque construction intended to cover information or graphics underneath, helping prevent the previous print from showing through.

Service labels are used to record maintenance, inspection or servicing information on equipment and can include dates, engineer details, reference numbers or next-service information.

PAT test labels are used to display information associated with portable appliance inspection and testing, such as status, date or identifying details.

Electrical labels identify electrical equipment, circuits, hazards, inspection information or operating instructions depending on the application.

Tie-on tags are labels or tags attached with string, wire or another tie rather than pressure-sensitive adhesive, making them useful for items that are difficult to sticker directly.

Polydoming applies a clear resin dome over printed graphics to create a raised, glossy and more durable branded badge or label.

Yes. Personalised packaging tape can carry branding or messages, allowing parcels and cartons to display company identity during handling and delivery.

Yes. Removable adhesives are available for applications where a label needs to come away more cleanly than a permanent adhesive, subject to surface and time considerations.

Consider the surface, how long the label will remain in place, environmental exposure and whether clean removal is required. Testing is sensible for critical applications.

No. Glass, metal, painted surfaces, cardboard, plastics and low-surface-energy materials can behave differently, so adhesive choice should reflect the actual substrate.

Pressure-sensitive adhesives have recommended application conditions. Very cold, damp, dusty or contaminated surfaces can reduce initial bond performance.

Yes, but outdoor life depends on face material, adhesive, ink, laminate, UV exposure, weather, surface and other environmental factors.

Tell the supplier the expected outdoor life, surface, exposure to sunlight, rain, cleaning, temperature range and whether abrasion or chemicals are involved.

Yes. S L Conyers supplies businesses throughout the UK from Birmingham.
