Piggyback Labels
What?
Piggyback labels are unique two-layer labels where one liner is affixed on top of another. This configuration allows the label to be peeled off and applied, and then partially or wholey applied elsewhere. Piggyback labels are ideal for applications that require tracking, return processes, or any scenario where multiple labels are necessary from a single application.

Why?
Dual Functionality: Piggyback labels provide two separate labeling functions in one application, enhancing versatility and utility. This makes them perfect for applications requiring a label to be transferred, such as mail-in rebates, inventory tracking, and return shipments.
Enhanced Tracking and Organisation: Often used in logistics and inventory management, a cut-out section of the main label canbe removed and re-applied elsewhere, to ensure data-matching and traceability are viable. The removable label can serve as a dynamic tracking tool that moves with an item or document, while the bottom label remains to maintain a permanent record.
Ease of Use: These labels streamline processes by reducing the steps needed to apply multiple labels, saving time and reducing errors in manual operations.
Customisable: The layers of piggyback labels allow for the printing of specific information, barcodes or designs to meet different operational needs, leading to enhanced flexibility in their use.
Mailing: Piggyback labels can be adhered to mail, such that the recipient can remove a section of the label and re-apply it. This section might be a returns label, a window sticker, etc.
