A textured hardware tub and metal tin with labels conforming to rough surfaces

DIY / Hardware labels

Hardware packaging is the most varied we handle. One order can cover a smooth bottle, a textured tub and a bare metal tin, and much of it sits in an outdoor yard before it sells.

What the label has to survive

  • Textured surfaces

    A rough or grained container gives the adhesive far less true contact area than it appears to.

  • Mixed substrates

    A single range may span plastic, metal and board, each needing different adhesive behaviour.

  • Outdoor storage

    Yard-stored stock sees sun and rain before it reaches a shelf.

  • Abrasion in handling

    Products are picked up, put down and knocked together by customers.

A typical construction

Where we usually start for diy / hardware work. It is a starting point, not a specification — we confirm every element against your container, filling line and shelf life before quoting.

What we'll ask you

Answering these up front is the fastest route to an accurate quote.

  • Whether one adhesive has to work across every container in the range, or whether it can be split.
  • How rough the container surface is — texture is the most common cause of adhesion failure here.
  • Whether stock is stored outdoors before sale.
