In the 1930s, self-adhesive materials were first applied in the United States. Due to the increasing demand for this special composite material, self-adhesive printing has gradually evolved into an independent printing field, and more and more enterprises at home and abroad are engaged in self-adhesive label printing. As far as China is concerned, the unprecedented development of printing industry in terms of production scale, technical level and market space has led to the development of self-adhesive printing and reached an unprecedented level.

According to statistics, in 2011, the output value of China's label market was 23 billion yuan, and the label output was 3 billion square meters, increased by 21.1% and 20.0% respectively compared with 2010 (the output value of label market in 2009 was 19 billion yuan, and the label output was 2.5 billion square meters). In the same year, China's label production accounted for 6.4% of the global label production. Therefore, the adhesive label market in China has great potential.
