Depending upon substrate type and temperature, the kraft label can be removed by using hot water. Kraft labels provide a rustic earthy finish to the packaged product. These labels are preferred by manufacturers of candles, soaps, and wine among others to get an aged look. Kraft labels offer superior printability at low costs coupled with good adhesion properties. Kraft labels can be printed either using laser printers or inkjet printers. Owing to their recyclability and aesthetic appeal, kraft labels are gaining traction in the global labels market. Kraft labels use acrylic glue, to provide permanent adhesion, and can be used at a wide range of temperatures.
