Domed Labels - Uses

Uses

Domed labels are used in many applications. Equipment manufacturers apply them as permanent marking for their products as they are durable and their three-dimensional appearance catches the eye.

Domed labels are much more permanent than many other labels and do not show wear; the clear polyurethane substance, even after curing (hardening), is self-healing. Minor scratches or cuts heal themselves and the label looks like new once again.

Several clothing manufacturers use domed labels as disposable items by affixing them to in-store hangers. The hangers are shaped in such a way that the customer will touch the label first when picking up the article of clothing for inspection. This initial tactile feel adds to the perceived value of the garment. Costume jewelers have also used domed labels for their products.

An example of a domed label application for tactile purposes can be seen in the photo. At the bottom left there is an example used to label the gearshift knob of an automobile.
