ECL “ Extended Content Label</div> Extended content labels are new in town. Forget LOL and BFF, ECL is the acronym to remember. Trust me, it's time to consider reinventing your label. ECLs can come in a variety of different forms. The peel back and fold out format allows the label to retain its typical look, the advantage is that the label can include extra information in a seemingly invisible additional label strip.

The booklet label is another option, where the additional information is attached to the label in a book-like collection of sheets. <a href=http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-TebImb7CHmE/TW7ZK8XqM3I/AAAAAAAAASs/k0fDWrFmRLQ/s1600/ecl_labels.jpg> </a>Here’s an example of ECLs in action.

Designs made by touchable raised finishes provoke the customer to pick the product up. 3. FiberStone Labels are now supporting the green movement. The product of this union is FiberStone.
