There are over 1000s of different types of labels in the current marketplace. Okay, I made this number up but seriously there are a lot of labels out there especially different kinds to place on containers so you can organize your stuff properly. Some are wooden, some use metal to showcase their label, some are re-usable while others just aren’t.
