PVC and Silicone labels differ significantly in the following ways:

• Compared to PVC, silicone is created using more environmentally friendly ingredients.
• PVC is less elastic and flexible than silicone. PVC is sometimes tougher than silicone.
• PVC is less expensive than silicone.
• A pvc patch are less long-lasting and less heat- and cold-resistant than silicone patches.
• Silicone is excellent if your label will be used on outdoor products because it is more resistant to ozone and UV radiation.

PVC and silicone patches are both soft and flexible. But PVC is harder and shinier, while silicone feels softer and is better in heat.
