Custom Label Help – Types of Custom Sticker Labels

Sometimes determining what to select when creating your own custom label can be hard. We’re here to help. Below you will find our guide which helps explain some of the options in our custom label designer. These are the areas we find people have most difficulty in, so if you are still unsure of something, or have additional questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us for additional information, or to get help designing your label.

Label Stocks

Lamination

None – There is no lamination on the label and the finish is simply the base stock.

Shiny Lamination – Provides a glossy film over the printed labels for increased durability.

Matte Lamination – Provides a matte film over the printed labels and can be written on.

Soft Touch Lamination – Used to add texture to labels.

Varnish – Liquid coating that is printed on the surface of the label.

Rewind Position

The rewind position indicates how the labels will come off the roll. This may be important if you are using automatic applications to apply labels. See the below image to indicate how you would like the copy to come off the label roll.

Ink Colors

We have a wide variety of standard and premium inks to choose from. If you need a specific color not in the table below, you can select PMS match and give us the PMS color number for us to generate that ink color. Use the swatch guide below to preview what the ink color will look like.
