roll labels
& stickers
Because our labels are offered with a custom size option, you won't find a standard size listed on this page. You're free to choose any size or shape!
To order a bespoke shape, please choose the 'bespoke shape' option below. You will need to set up your artwork with a cutter guide, using a spot colour to represent the bespoke shape.
Tip: Avoid sharp edges in your bespoke shape design, as it may cause the label to tear when peeled from the backing.
Enter the number of different artwork versions you would like to print using the same product specification (size, quantity, substrate, lamination etc).
Additional artwork versions of this product will receive a discount.
Same Guide:
If each version of your label uses the exact same cutting guide to produce identical shapes.
Different Guide:
If you require a different cutting guide for each version of your label to produce different shapes.

Foil Only Label
Order a Label with your selected foil colour and no other printed colours.
White Ink is only available for use on the following substrates:
- Black PP Plastic
- Clear PP Plastic
- Silver Metallic
Silver Ink is a mid-brilliance ink with a satin effect, similar to Pantone 877C. It can be used alone or with a CMYK topping to create a variety of metallic effects. We recommend printing solid rather than tinted.
If you want a glossy, metallised finish, try the Silver Metallic substrate instead.
This image shows the difference between Silver Ink and Silver Metallic substrate.

Use our free downloadable guides to find out how to set up artwork for special colours. Printed samples can be sent on request.
Requirements:
Coatings are not available with Luxury substrates.
Gloss UV coating:
For a glossy and scratch-resistant finish, we recommend a gloss coating on all high ink coverage Labels. Most writing instruments will not be able to write on this.
Satin UV coating:
Gives Labels a satin finish with a subtle surface shine. Like gloss, this coating is recommended for Labels with high ink coverage. Most writing instruments will not be able to write on this.
Matt UV coating:
Gives Labels a soft matt finish. This coating is not recommended for Labels with a high ink coverage where good scratch resistance is required. Most writing instruments will be able to write on this. This coating can give clear Labels a milky effect.
Rough Touch UV coating:
Gives Labels a sandy/rough finish. This coating is recommended for Labels with high ink coverage. You cannot write on this finish. This coating will give clear Labels a milky effect.
Overprinting and write-ability:
None of our Labels are guaranteed for machine overprinting, although some finishes can be written on with permanent markers. If you decide not to coat your Labels, we recommend you print them on our paper substrate, which is less glossy than the PP option.
The table below shows the gloss level, scuff resistance and writability of each UV coating finish offered. Generally, paper substrates are easier to write on and for high ink coverages scuff less, regardless of coating finish.
PP substrates | Paper substrates | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Coating type | Gloss level | Scuff resistance | Writability | Gloss level | Scuff resistance | Writability |
Gloss | High | High | Low | High | High | Low |
Satin | Medium | Medium | Low | Medium | High | Medium |
Matt | Low | Low | Medium | Low | Medium | High |
Rough Touch | Medium | High | Low | Medium | High | Medium |

Laminations are not available with Luxury substrates or any substrate with Removable Adhesive.

Laser Cut
Laser cutting is suitable for most applications. It offers the fastest possible turnaround, flexibility in cutting shape/design, and typically costs less.
Die Cut
Die cutting gives a cleaner, more accurate cut than laser. Additionally, when high ink coverage bleeds over the cut edges you won't see the substrate colour showing through. This is suitable for dark coloured Labels being applied to dark-coloured products.
Die cutting is more suitable for machine applied Labels, although laser cutting can work just as well, depending on the exact application and circumstances.
Information:
- Laser cutting will be automatically selected when 'machine applied' is chosen, except when 'bespoke shape' is chosen.
- Laser cutting is not available with White PP Opaque Labels.
- Laser cutting is not available with White PP super permanent when a specified direction is chosen.
- Die cutting will be chosen automatically when the cost becomes less, although you can manually select die cutting. You can also manually select laser cutting.
- Die cutting adds 1 working day to the production time.
- Die cutting is available with Express or Express Plus for certain Label specifications, depending on availability.
- For die cutting, the minimum radius corners on all substrates is 0.5mm.
Laid substrates have a repeating lined pattern on their surface. You’ll need to choose whether you want the lines on your Label to run horizontally or vertically.
Applied By Hand
We will automatically select the most cost effective options for Labels that are being applied by hand.
Applied By Machine
If your Labels are being applied by a machine, you will need to check the specific requirements of your labelling machine before choosing any of the options listed. Please observe the orientation messages when you add to the basket.
If you are planning to apply your labels on a machine then you may want to specify the direction the label leads with on the roll.
If you are applying your Labels by hand, we have automatically selected the most cost-effective orientation for you.
If you apply your Labels using a machine, you can choose whether they are wound facing outward or inward.
You have the option to change the core diameter size of your Label roll if you plan to apply them with a machine. Choose from 3 sizes: 76mm, 38mm and 25mm.
The measurements shown are inner diameters (ID). The default ID is 76mm. We recommend the 76mm size for Label application by hand.
Requirements:
Roll widths below 35mm can have maximum roll diameters up to 165mm.
Roll widths below 50mm can have maximum roll diameters up to 200mm.
You have the option to reduce or increase your roll diameter for manual Label application. If you’re distributing rolls of Labels to multiple users, you may want to reduce this.
The actual approximate outer diameter of each roll is displayed in your order summary, along with the number of Labels you will receive on that roll.
This allows you to select a larger gap between your labels, this can be useful for some machine applicators. The default is 3mm for polypropylene and 4mm for papers.
You can change how sharp the corners of your square or rectangular Labels are. Choose from 0mm to 10mm, depending on your substrate, finished size and cutting method.
Machine application: we recommend die cutting and a minimum corner radius of 0.5mm.
Information:
Laser cutting - The minimum radius is 0mm on PP substrates and 1mm on paper substrates.
Die cutting - The minimum radius on all substrates is 0.5mm.
This option allows you to specify the number of labels across each roll.
This option is recommended for hand-application only, as machine application requires Labels to be laid out in single file down the length of a roll.
We will automatically calculate all the possible roll configurations for your given Label size, and you can choose whichever suits you.
