In outdoor or sunlight-exposed environments, standard labels often fade, peel, or lose legibility over time. UV resistant labels are specially designed to withstand sunlight, heat, and harsh weather, keeping your message, branding, or product information clearly visible for years.
As a professional label printing factory, we help customers choose the right base materials, fade-resistant inks, laminates, and adhesives to match both application surface and expected outdoor exposure.
✔️Outdoor product packaging or containers
✔️Equipment tags and machinery ID plates
✔️Garden tools and landscaping supplies
✔️Automotive decals or window labels
✔️Construction material and safety signage
✔️Solar energy products or outdoor electronics
✔️Warehouse racks exposed to sunlight
Material | UV Durability | Notes |
---|---|---|
Outdoor-grade vinyl | Up to 5 years | Flexible and weatherproof |
PET (polyester) | Up to 3–7 years | Durable and heat-resistant |
Polycarbonate film | 5–10 years | High clarity and toughness |
Anodized aluminum | Up to 20 years | Optional for rigid tags |
Lamination or UV coating is recommended for printed surfaces to protect against UV degradation.
✅ UV-resistant inks that hold color over years of exposure
✅ Optional UV-blocking laminates for extra surface protection
✅ Fade-proof for printed barcodes, logos, and small text
✅ Rated performance from 1–7+ years depending on usage
✅ No yellowing, peeling, or drying under direct sun
We can test or simulate your usage conditions (e.g. outdoor storage, marine exposure) and adjust label construction accordingly.
✔️Permanent outdoor adhesive – For plastic, metal, painted surfaces
✔️High-tack adhesive – For rough or curved outdoor surfaces
✔️Removable adhesive – For short-term use without residue
✔️UV-stable adhesive – Specially formulated to avoid sun-induced failure
Adhesive durability is just as important as print fade resistance. We’ll match it to your application environment.
✔️Full-color or black-only UV-stable printing
✔️Barcode, serial number, or QR code printing
✔️Custom sizes and die-cut shapes
✔️Optional writable or printable layers
✔️Matte, gloss, or textured finish
All designs are printed with fade-resistant inks or protected by a UV clear layer.
Q: Will the colors fade under strong sunlight?
A: No. We use UV-rated inks and films that resist fading for years under outdoor conditions.
Q: Are these labels waterproof too?
A: Yes. All UV resistant labels are also waterproof and weatherproof.
Q: How long will they last outdoors?
A: Depending on material, our labels perform for 3–7+ years, even under full sun.
Q: Can I use them on curved or uneven surfaces?
A: Yes. We offer flexible materials and strong adhesives suited for curved plastics or metals.
With 14+ years of experience, we specialize in manufacturing UV resistant and weatherproof labels for industries like construction, agriculture, logistics, and outdoor consumer goods. We understand the effects of sun, rain, heat, and time—and build labels that keep working long after others fade.
