Release Liner Use

Industrial Release Liner Applications

 

Many people use release liners every day without thinking about where it comes from, its quality, its various uses, or ability to be customized.

The first thing you should know is that not all them are created equal. Many tear and rip, creating a frustrating end-sure experience. Additionally, liners can be bland, low-quality, and separate from their adhesive which proves challenging for its end-user. Let’s look at how release liners are used.

Release liners are used in many industries

The medical industry relies on them for band-aids and other medical uses. The shipping/freight industry uses release liners to adhere the end flaps of boxes together. The graphic design industry uses them for stickers, posters, and for other point-of-sale items. The industrial, construction, automotive, feminine hygiene, and mailing industries also rely on release liners for their products as well.

So, what are release liners?

They are a thin paper- or silicone-based sheet, or liner, that covers an adhesive (typically on a substrate) which can be removed for use at a later time. Without a quality liner, the adhesive would stick to itself, therefore preventing its application and render it useless.
