What are labels and decals?
Labels and decals are printed graphics that are adhered to products or packaging. Since these elements are intended to be both visually appealing and convey important information, careful consideration must be made to ensure color accuracy, legibility, and durability.
With over 100 years of experience, Tapecon has earned a reputation as a trusted leader in industrial printing. Our high-quality labels and decals can be found on leading products around the world. Our expert team can recommend the ideal product construction, printing method, and finishing techniques for your needs.

Packaging and Labels that Enhance Security
Looking for a way to prevent unlicensed manufacturing and distribution of your product? It’s an unfortunate truth that companies today need to protect their intellectual property and bottom line.
While designing and producing your packaging label, Tapecon can include a wide range of effective printed security features.
- Microtext: Text is added in a font size so small it's nearly invisible to the naked eye.
- Guilloches: Special, complex line drawings with irregular, complex shapes and patterns that are extremely difficult to copy.
- Variable imaging: Elements are added for authentication, sterilization, barcodes and randomly placed micro-dots.
- Raised images and illustrations: A tactile feature can be introduced to printing products that creates another dimension of brand security.
- Security substrates: Options include thermo- and UV-sensitive substrates, reactive anti-fraud chemicals, watermarks holograms, embedded threads, and foils.
- Clear toner: Adds text, messages, or shapes that are visible only under UV light.
