NELKO Thermal Direct-Versandetikett (Packung mit 500 4x6 Endlosetiketten)

The thermal coating produces legible text and graphics. A practical supply for routine use.

Used them on cardboard boxes for shipping, and some stayed put, but others lost grip after a day or two, especially if the box surface was dusty or slightly rough. Had a few arrive with the label half gone. If your packages sit in damp or bumpy conditions, you’ll likely need extra tape. Not reliable enough for important shipments without backup.

The surface accepts thermal printing without smudging or fading.

Problem is, it jams or misaligns often enough to slow things down. Sometimes it grabs two sheets at once, sometimes it stops halfway and I have to pull it out. For a pack this big, having to babysit the feed is annoying. Works, but needs patience.

The paper thickness is comparable to other brands.

Fresh prints are clear and barcodes scan fine. Because it’s thermal, exposure to bright light or heat makes the text lighter after a few weeks, and it can smudge if rubbed. Works for temporary labels — like shipping or short‑term inventory — but not for anything that needs to last months without changing.

The labels stick reliably to cardboard and plastic surfaces.

Size and print clarity work for my needs, and the white background keeps text easy to read. Some sheets have corners that lift a little when removing the backing — need to press and peel gently, or they can tug the edge. Not a big problem for box labeling, but it adds a few seconds if you’re in a hurry. The 500‑sheet count means I won’t run out soon.

The label size matches product specifications.

If you occasionally print the wrong thing or need to redo a batch, the cost here means it’s not a disaster. Still, the quality is steady enough that most prints come out right the first time. It’s become my default for everyday thermal labeling. Reliable staple for the drawer.
