Buraq 100mm X 150mm Direct Thermal Barcode Label in Kuwait (DTR)

Q1. What is 100mm x 150mm label size typically used for?

100mm x 150mm (4×6 inch) labels are the standard shipping label size used by many international couriers, e‑commerce marketplaces, and logistics platforms. They provide enough space for shipping addresses, barcodes, routing information, and branded elements on a single label.

Q2. Are these labels compatible with Aramex, DHL, FedEx, and local Kuwaiti couriers?

Yes, most carrier and marketplace shipping templates are built around 4×6 inch (100x150mm) direct thermal labels, making this size ideal for Aramex, DHL, FedEx, and many regional and local couriers. Always check the template format in your shipping platform, but in most cases 100x150mm is the default shipping label option.

Q3. Which printers support 100x150mm direct thermal barcode labels?

These labels are compatible with most 4‑inch direct thermal desktop and industrial printers, including popular Zebra ZD/ZD4x and ZT series and equivalent Buraq or other brands. The key is to ensure the printer supports the correct core size (desktop vs industrial), roll diameter, and sensor configuration.

Q4. Can I use 100mm x 150mm labels for pallet labels and large carton labels as well?

Yes, 100x150mm labels are widely used not only for courier shipping labels but also for pallet labels, master carton labels, and outbound logistics labels in warehouses. They provide enough area for pallet IDs, route information, and handling instructions like “Fragile” or “Keep Upright.”

Q5. How long do shipping labels printed on these direct thermal rolls stay readable?

Shipping labels printed on quality direct thermal material are designed to stay readable throughout the typical shipping lifecycle—from printing, through sorting and transit, to delivery—usually a few days to a few weeks. For very long transit times or extreme environments, consider enhanced media or protective packaging to avoid fading.

Q6. Are these 100x150mm labels on 1‑inch or 3‑inch cores?

The desktop‑style version typically uses 1‑inch cores suitable for small desktop printers, while a separate 3‑inch core SKU is available for high‑volume industrial printers. Zahabi can confirm which core your chosen product uses and help you select the correct version for your printers.
