Peel & Reveal FrozenSTUCK™ – Labels for Extended Content and Frozen Surfaces (Patent Pending)
Peel & Reveal FrozenSTUCK™ labels provide a unique solution for labeling ambient and already frozen* (as low as -80°C/-112°F) vials and tubes, with no thawing, curing, or any other special treatment required to apply these labels onto glass and plastic tubes, thereby preserving the biological integrity of sensitive specimens and contents. These direct thermal printable labels allow the end-user to print supplemental or extended content onto vials where space is limited. The removeable adhesive allows the label to wrap onto itself with no harm to the printed information underneath once the label is peeled away. Labels maintain excellent long-term adhesion for all layers at -80°C, including lab freezer storage and dry ice transportation. They also withstand 37°C water bath thawing, with all layers remaining attached and legible throughout the thawing process.
Due to their special adhesive and conformable design, these peel-off labels are suitable for vaccine vials, counter and injectable medicines, medication bottles, cosmetics, clinical trials, and wherever extra label space is required to print extended content. Compatible with most common direct thermal and thermal transfer printers, these labels can be printed along the full length with alphanumeric text, barcodes, allergen warnings, nutritional facts, multiple languages, lot information, expiry dates, instructions for use, dosing, regulatory requirements, and other supplemental information. The printout of these labels is resistant to spraying and wiping with alcohol or sanitizing wipes.
* To ensure proper adhesion, please remove excess frost prior to affixing and resealing the label.
Benefits:
- Ideal for ambient and frozen labeling and packaging without thawing
- Layers remain intact and readable at low temperature
- Expanded content labels (ECLs) offer easy peeling and space for additional content
- Direct thermal or thermal transfer printable for the best printout and barcode quality
- Writable with regular pens and markers

Frequently Asked Questions
When printed as a direct thermal label, these Peel & Reveal FrozenSTUCK labels do not require an ink ribbon or any other ink source to print. When thermal transfer printing method is selected, these labels require a RR-class ink ribbon of the same width or larger.
These Peel & Reveal labels are compatible with most common direct thermal and thermal transfer printers.
No, they cannot be printed with DYMO printers.
Yes, FrozenSTUCK labels have been specially designed for identifying already frozen surfaces. They can be affixed at a temperature as low as -80°C/-112°F, eliminating the need to thaw valuable samples.
To ensure proper application of these labels, wipe the surface with a clean lint-free disposable wipe (e.g: KimWipe™) prior to affixing the label to remove excess frost. Apply the edge of the label first and press firmly to anchor it, while avoiding excessive contact with the adhesive. Then press the label securely into position along the vials’ entire circumference.
No, the vials and tubes can be stored in ultra-low temperature freezers (-80°C/-112°F) immediately following label application, requiring no cure time.
Yes, Peel & Reveal FrozenSTUCK labels can be used to label samples prior to storing them in -80°C freezer for prolonged periods.
They are not made for easy removal from the vials and tubes but can easily be peeled off off the layers revealing and preserving the printed content underneath
On a typical 20ml vaccine glass vial (0.934” circumference), a label of 7.87” will provide 2.5 panels of information.
Yes, these Peel & Reveal labels have a unique opaque design that allows them to hide information from the underneath layers. Perfect for use as a booklet label while still being able to be applied to frozen vials and tubes.
Yes, these labels resist spraying and wiping with alcohols for sanitization. Prior printing testing is strongly recommended in your conditions. Please contact our technical support team to request samples.
Yes, this tape can withstand heated water bath immersion (up to +37°C/+98.6°F) for a few minutes.
Yes, Peel & Reveal labels are designed for a few open-close cycles even at a lower temperature such as -80C (-112°F). Wipe the surface with a clean lint-free disposable wipe (e.g: KimWipe™) to remove excess frost before resealing the label.
Yes, for a reasonable minimum order quantity we can custom produce other sizes. Please contact our technical support team for more details.
Barcoding or label design software, such as BarTender and ZebraDesigner can be used to create templates that conform to your label’s size. You can then insert barcodes or other design elements within the template for easy printing.
Yes, Peel & Reveal FrozenSTUCK labels can be preprinted with graphics and logos, as well as variable or serialized information from a database. Learn more about our custom printing options.
No, the Peel & Reveal labels are only available in white. For additional color options, contact our technical support team.
Yes, these Peel & Reveal labels can be inscribed using permanent markers and pens. We recommend our markers for writing on them.
Yes, for a reasonable minimum order quantity we can custom produce in a tape format. Please contact our technical support team for more details.
