Kleepmärke

Kleepmärke is a term of Estonian origin that generally refers to a small, sticky or adhesive label or sticker. It is often used for items that are meant to be temporarily affixed to surfaces, such as price tags, informational labels on products, or decorative stickers. The word itself is a compound of "kleep" meaning sticky or adhesive, and "märke" meaning mark or label.

In practical terms, kleepmärgid can encompass a wide variety of adhesive materials. This includes simple paper stickers with a gummed backing, as well as more durable vinyl or plastic labels. They are commonly found in retail environments, used to display prices, product names, barcodes, or special offers. Beyond commercial applications, kleepmärgid are also used for personal organization, crafting, and labeling personal belongings. The adhesive quality is key to their function, allowing them to adhere to various materials like paper, plastic, glass, and metal. The ease with which they can be applied and removed, or their permanence, can vary depending on the specific type of kleepmärke.
