What Can You Use Polyolefin Labels For?
Polyolefin labels are a go-to solution when paper labels can’t keep up. Their synthetic durability makes them ideal for applications exposed to moisture, abrasion, grease, or temperature shifts. These 8" x 11" labels are commonly used for:
- Large-format warehouse and rack labels
- Drum and barrel identification
- Industrial shipping and logistics labels
- Outdoor asset and equipment labeling
- Cold storage applications
- Facilities with grease-prone or high-contact environments
Why Polyolefin Is One of the Best Materials for Thermal Transfer Printing
This 3.0mil polyolefin film is engineered for durability and stability across tough environments. It is waterproof, tear-resistant, and built to resist temperature fluctuations. The material is also grease-resistant and suitable for food contact. With good UV resistance and weathering characteristics, it can perform outdoors for up to 2 years under appropriate conditions. It remains stable on a continuous basis up to 160F, stays flexible down to -40F, and features a minimum application temperature of -10F.

Aggressive Permanent Adhesive for Drum, Barrel & Industrial Surfaces
These labels use a Permanent/Aggressive acrylic adhesive that is ideal for high-demand industrial applications. It provides excellent adhesion to painted metal, polyolefin, and fiber drums in all weather conditions, making it a dependable choice for drum and barrel labeling programs. This adhesive also complies with FDA 21 CFR 175.105.
Warehouse Floor Label Power with Label Armor
These 8" x 11" polyolefin labels are an excellent choice for warehouse floor labels. When combined with our Label Armor - Full Letter Size Protector Label 12.125in x 15.625in, you can create a heavy-duty floor labeling system designed to withstand traffic and operational wear. Together, this pairing can provide a warehouse floor label solution that lasts up to 3 years.
Recommended Printer for Large-Format Labels: Godex HD830i
For wide and large-format printing, the Godex HD830i printer is a great option for printing these 8" x 11" 3MIL polyolefin labels as well as other large format warehouse labels and drum labels. Its wide-format capability makes it a strong match for facilities standardizing durable, easy-to-scan identification across large surfaces.
Ribbon Required – Wax/Resin or Resin
A wax/resin ribbon and/or resin ribbon is required for these 8" x 11" 3MIL Polyolefin Labels. For maximum durability with the Godex HD830i—especially for warehouse, drum, and long-term industrial use—we recommend the Zebra 8.66"x984 ft R510HF Ultra Durable Resin Ribbon. This ultra-durable resin option is ideal for enhancing resistance to scuffing, handling, and environmental exposure on synthetic label materials.
