Substitution rule
Match by size, material, adhesive, printer type, color, and case quantity. Do not assume two suppliers' SKUs are identical just because the dimensions match.
Procurement handoff
Give purchasing the Packrift product link plus the original size and use case. Ask the packing team to test one case before standardizing a replacement.
Avoid
Do not substitute a laser label with a thermal roll, or a removable adhesive with a permanent adhesive, without workflow approval.
