Permanent Finger Lift Tamper Evident Labels

A finger lift label is a two-part permanent, self-adhesive, liner-less tamper evident label with dry edges that carry no adhesive. The dry edge is there so anyone can lift the label off the roll and apply it without fighting it — which matters when the person applying seals does it hundreds of times a shift.

Specification, options, typical applications and what to check before ordering are set out below.

What it is

A finger lift label is a two-part permanent, self-adhesive, liner-less tamper evident label with dry edges that carry no adhesive. The dry edge is there so anyone can lift the label off the roll and apply it without fighting it — which matters when the person applying seals does it hundreds of times a shift.

The pressure sensitive adhesive is stripe coated along the centre of the label, giving good adhesion and suiting both left and right hand application.

What happens when the label is disturbed

This is an option applied to a permanent tamper evident label, not a different kind of evidence. The label still works the same way: lifting it breaks the face, leaves the hidden message and adhesive behind on the surface, and the label cannot be put back looking as it did. The option below changes what is printed, numbered or verified — not the tamper mechanism.

Specification and options

Product family Custom & Speciality Permanent Labels
Construction Two-part permanent self-adhesive, liner-less, pressure sensitive
Handling feature Dry edges with no adhesive for easy lift from the roll and easy application
Adhesive Stripe coated along the centre; suitable for left and right hand application
Surface factors Designed for a range of surfaces, taking account of surface energy, smoothness, cleanliness, shape, flexibility and heat
After removal The part left on the surface is non-tacky — a dry peel — so the label cannot be reapplied

Fields are stated only where verified. Sizes, quantities and artwork are confirmed per order line.

Typical applications

  • High-volume manual sealing where application speed and comfort matter
  • Sites where seals are applied by many different people, including temporary staff
  • Cold or gloved handling, where a linered label is awkward to separate

Before you specify

  • Confirm the surface: energy, texture, cleanliness and flexibility all change adhesion
  • Check the application temperature at the moment the label goes on, not just storage
  • Trial with the people who will apply it — handling is the point of this construction
