Metal Sheet Label

Acousto-Magnetic (AM)

The Metal Sheet Label delivers top-ofthe-range performance and superior merchandise protection when attached to metal surfaces or metallic packaged products. This label expands merchandise protection capabilities to include previously unprotectable SKUs that were difficult to protect with standard EAS labels. It also provides exceptional range, sensitivity, detection and consistent deactivation at the point of sale (POS). Designed to perform on metal surfaces or metallic packaged products such as canned food items, baby formula, energy drinks and DIY tools, this robust and stable AM EAS label operates efficiently after exposure to environmental stresses, including shipping and handling. Available for in-store hand application, this label can also be applied to merchandise at the point of manufacture so that retailers can receive floor-ready merchandise with consistent label placement, expediting receiving and sales floor fulfilment.
