Electronic labels are rapidly permeating various industries, from smart retail price tags and logistics package tracking labels to material identification on industrial production lines. One of the core materials supporting the stable operation of these tiny tags is 1060 aluminum foil. This seemingly ordinary metal material, with its unique combination of properties, has become the "standard choice" in the electronic tag manufacturing field.
The success of 1060 aluminum foil in the electronic label industry stems primarily from its high purity. As a representative of the 1000 series of industrial pure aluminum materials, it has an aluminum content of over 99.6%, containing only trace impurities such as silicon and iron (totaling no more than 0.45%). The most direct advantage of this high purity is its superior conductivity—compared to the 1050 aluminum alloy in the same series, 1060 aluminum foil offers a 2%-3% increase in conductivity.
For electronic tags, conductivity directly determines the stability of signal transmission. Whether it's the antenna circuit of an RFID tag or the electrode contacts of a smart price tag, 1060 aluminum foil ensures smooth current conduction, reduces signal loss, and allows tags to accurately respond to reading devices even in complex environments.
Meanwhile, its high purity gives it a uniform material structure. After surface treatments such as anodizing, it forms a dense and uniform protective film, effectively resisting environmental interference such as moisture and dust, and extending the lifespan of the electronic tag.
The manufacturing process of electronic labels involves multiple stages such as rolling, stamping, etching, and welding, placing comprehensive demands on the processing performance of materials. 1060 aluminum foil is perfectly suited for this.
In terms of forming performance, 1060 aluminum foil boasts excellent plasticity. Especially after annealing at 350-410℃, the O-state 1060 aluminum foil can achieve an elongation of 25%-30%, easily meeting the complex stamping and forming requirements of electronic tags.
It can even be processed into ultra-thin specifications of 0.02mm, perfectly adapting to the trend of miniaturization and lightweight tag design.1060-h24 aluminum foil used for casings or support structures also possess the toughness to withstand 90° bends without cracking, balancing structural strength and ease of processing.
In terms of precision control, high-quality 1060 aluminum foil enables strict thickness variation control and is free of defects such as black spots and scratches. This is crucial for antenna circuits requiring fine etching. Stable material uniformity ensures that the etched circuitry meets accuracy standards, preventing tag performance failure due to material defects.
The widespread application of electronic tags relies heavily on cost control of materials, and 1060 aluminum foil is a prime example of "performance and cost balance." As a basic pure aluminum material with mature production processes, its raw material supply is stable, and processing costs are controllable, giving it a significant price advantage compared to alternative materials such as copper foil.
This high cost-effectiveness perfectly meets the needs of large-scale electronic tag applications. Data shows that the Chinese electronic label aluminum foil market reached 7.86 billion RMB in 2025, with 1060 aluminum foil holding a significant share in LED display backplanes, smart price labels, and other fields due to its strong adaptability and controllable cost.
1060 aluminum foil is also often used as the battery aluminum foil. Haomei Aluminum offers all 1000 series aluminum foils including 1050, 1060, 107, 1235 and 1100 aluminum foil. Welcome to inquire what you need from us.
