If you’re running an online store on Shopify, Amazon, or Etsy, choosing the right thermal shipping labels is essential for efficient and reliable shipping operations. In this post, we’ll help you understand what to look for in thermal labels to streamline your fulfillment process.
1. Use the Right Label Size
The most commonly used size for shipping labels is 4" x 6". This format works perfectly with carriers like USPS, UPS, FedEx, and Canada Post, and it is compatible with most e-commerce platforms and shipping software.
2. Choose Fanfold or Roll Format
Fanfold labels lie flat and reduce curl, making them easier to load and less likely to jam. They are ideal for high-volume shipping and compatible with printers like Zebra, Rollo, Munbyn, and Polono.
3. Make Sure It’s Direct Thermal
Direct thermal labels require no ink or toner and are perfect for barcodes, shipping information, and logos. Just make sure your printer supports direct thermal printing.
4. Look for BPA-Free & Strong Adhesive
Always choose BPA-free labels with a strong permanent adhesive to ensure labels stay on boxes, mailers, or shrink wrap—even in harsh shipping environments.
