backing card
to put adhesive material on which can be peeled off easily when needed
It's basically like shiny/glossy card. It means the stuff will adhere temproarily until needed but is not glued on permanently
Stickers, labels, stamps etc. usually come on a sheet with a backing card. You just peel off what you want to stick it/them where you want

: no, it's not necessarily for "protection". it's just a way of storing it.

: did you read the context? This is not a display-for-sale backing card. It's for inter-use storage for a self-adhesive medical device
