Best Label Material for Products Stored in UAE Heat?

I’m looking for advice on choosing durable self-adhesive labels for products stored and transported in the UAE. The labels may be exposed to high temperatures, moisture, dust, refrigeration, and frequent handling.


Which material performs best for these conditions: polypropylene, polyethylene, vinyl, or coated paper? We also need good barcode readability and an adhesive that will not peel from plastic, glass, or cardboard packaging.


Any recommendations regarding label material, adhesive type, finish, and printing method would be appreciated.
