Zebra PolyPro 3000T Matte Label
The PolyPro 3000T Matte is a durable, thermal transfer polypropylene label engineered for demanding labeling applications that require long-lasting performance and flexibility. Featuring a matte white facestock with a permanent acrylic adhesive, this label offers strong adhesion to corrugate, plastic, and metal surfaces while maintaining excellent resistance to scratching and smearing.
Perfect for both indoor and short-term outdoor use, the PolyPro 3000T performs reliably in temperatures ranging from -65°F to 200°F (-54°C to 80°C) and meets FDA 175.105 standards for indirect food contact. Its conformability makes it ideal for curved or uneven surfaces commonly found in packaging and product labeling.
