Read on to find out what our high-quality printing services have to offer.
Professional Food Label Printing for Your Products
Label types that you can apply manually or automatically, for a varying range of quantities.
Singles (formerly known as cut-to-size) labels are recommended for orders of at least 25 pieces. These are individually cut and applied by hand. It is not recommended for larger quantities above 250 as it might be difficult to keep track and place on the items yourself.
Roll is normally ordered for quantities above 250 labels. One roll fits a standard label dispenser, so this is normally machine applied. Perfect for labeling hundreds to thousands of products that need to be shipped out ASAP.
Sturdy label materials that can be refrigerated or exposed outdoors.
Food packages displayed in-store and don’t require refrigeration can be printed in 70 lb. label. Items that will be displayed outside, like in pop up markets and fairs, can be labeled with weather- and waterproof 4 mil. white vinyl.For food items that need to be refrigerated, you can print on clear, white, silver metallic, or rainbow holographic BOPP. These can withstand a minimum temperature of 14oF. Check out the “Materials and Specs” tab for more information on these options.
Impressive laminate that distinguishes your product against the competition.
All materials come in three impressive coatings that will complement your food label design:
- Matte has a silk-like finish and little glare that makes every detail easy on the eyes. Colors come out soft and muted, perfect for neutral or light-hued designs. Recommended for food labels with long ingredients lists and other chunks of lengthy information.
- Gloss is recommended for image-heavy and bright colored food labels. It provides a vibrant shine and makes daring color combinations brighter on the eyes. Plus, it protects fingerprint marks.
- High gloss offers the highest reflectivity and extra glossiness. Colors come out extra bold and bright. The high reflectivity allows your label to stand out from afar. Your design also looks good as new with its abrasion-resistant property.
