Custom Label Materials

White BOPP Plastic Label (Permanent)

White BOPP plastic (polypropylene) is the most commonly used label material in our collection. Durable, hard-wearing, immune to temperature fluctuations, stain-resistant, acid-resistant, and solvent resistant. It delivers eye-popping color and image crispness that can’t be beaten.

Feel free to ask us for guidance on your new polypropylene labels.

Chrome BOPP Plastic Label (Permanent)

This Chrome BOPP plastic material produces superb results in the right circumstances – BUT it needs advanced graphic design skills to be effective. The polypropylene film is specially treated during manufacture to have a “chrome-like” finish (i.e. just like the reflective silver trim on older cars).

Once again, there are some design tricks that can contribute to a beautiful result, and some traps to be avoided.

Feel free to ask us for guidance on your Chrome BOPP label design.

Clear BOPP Plastic Label (Paper Liner)

Clear BOPP plastic is exactly as it sounds, this is a transparent polypropylene film that is perfect for the “no label” look, allowing the product itself to show through. It does require a little more care when designing, as strong background colors can have unexpected impacts on the result.

We can help you decide whether this is the best label option for your products.

Estate #9 - Textured Paper (Cream)

All about sustainability? Shooting for a down-to-earth, homey feel? This label material is ideal for your product. This textured paper in cream gives way to beautiful print quality, dreamy graphics, and crisp text. 

What Is It?

Estate #9 is a textured paper that lends a very popular antique look to your custom products. Whether you’re dedicated to cutting down plastic use in your business or you love the small-batch look, Estate #9 is a top option for those searching for a cream-colored backdrop for their unique product label. This is a buff-colored option that is similar to Estate #8 in texture and finish. 

With straightforward design requirements and a light base color, these labels are easy to work with and fun to design. Keep in mind that, since this material is paper based, it may not be the right choice if you expect that your product will see long-term use or rough handling. For example, cleaning product labels may not be the best fit for Estate #9, since the chemicals and liquids can quickly break down paper and the products are likely to stay in use for many months. 

Benefits 

• Subtle textured finish: For businesses searching for a product material that not only looks unique but also flaunts a unique texture, Estate #9 is ideal. The textured paper stands out naturally on the shelves and creates a lovely antique finish that will instantly set your product apart.
• Sustainable: Many label materials rely on plastic, which can last for centuries to come in landfills. Many sustainable brands turn to paper labels in order to help the planet and protect the environment. Whether your product mission hinges upon sustainability or you’re simply looking for a way to do your part, paper labels can help you make a positive difference. 
• Unique look: Without the telltale shine of a plastic label, it’s natural to quickly pick Estate #9 out of a crowd. This label combines the subtle texturing with a signature cream color that drives home the antique appearance. This material works exceptionally well at local markets and boutiques where shoppers long for small-batch, custom-made products. 

Best Uses

• Wine: Create an instant classic with this antique-inspired label material. Wine shoppers rely heavily on labels in order to select their next purchase, and Estate #9 can help your product stand out as a classy and genuine find. 
• Beer: Craft beer products are more popular than ever, and every consumer loves to feel that they’ve discovered a unique, small-batch brew. Use Estate #9 to highlight the qualities that make your beer special. 

Estate #8 - Paper (White)

Avoiding plastic? Aiming for a small-scale, local vibe? Paper labels may be just what your product needs to shine. Instantly communicate to your potential customers that your product is unique, sustainable, and authentic. Estate #8 is a white textured paper label material that allows your graphics and your product to take center stage. 

What Is It? 

Estate #8 is made from paper, instead of the plastic of most label materials. The textured feel combined with the crisp white of the coloring can give your design a fresh take and add another layer of interest to your product appearance. As your shoppers browse the shelves, stand out from the rest with a label that looks and feels different from competing products. If your branding centers around the unique aspects of your signature product, leverage Estate #8 for an authentic feel. 

While Estate #8 is a beautiful material that works well for all levels of design skill, it is not the best fit for every product type. If your product will be exposed to extreme environmental factors like heat, cold, or moisture, the paper label will likely deteriorate too quickly. For example, bath and body products should leverage an alternative label material in order to hold up against the water content of the shower. 

Benefits

• Signature texture: Don’t design a label that simply looks different – make one that feels different too! This textured paper stands out to multiple senses, making your product more noticeable and drawing new customers effortlessly.
• Eco-friendly: If eliminating or reducing plastic is part of your brand mission, why not opt for paper labels? Estate #8 is paper-based, so it won’t sit in landfills for centuries to come. 
• Distinctive appearance: When it comes to designing a product label, the worst thing you can do is blend in! Choose Estate #8 for an unforgettable appearance that allows your design to shine.

Best Uses

• Beer: Many craft beers still use plastic labels. Set your product apart from the rest with Estate #8. You created a brew that’s unlike the rest. Your label should reflect that!
• Wine: Nothing screams “classy” like a beautiful textured label! As wine shoppers browse the aisles, most of them pick up bottles as they go and allow the labels to do the talking. Don’t let your blend, blend in – stand out with a label that’s as special as your custom wine!
• Gourmet food: From healthy snacks to gourmet sauces, food labels should communicate the heart of the product. Put your best foot forward to communicate authenticity and a comforting, local feel with this paper label material.
