Label material matters. 

Custom food label printing must be carefully matched to end-use requirements, often requiring performance across a range of temperatures (hot-fill, frozen foods), handling options and uniquely shaped containers. If not, labels can wrinkle upon application or lift when product is on a retail shelf escalating costs and brand damage. We spend time up-front to smartly select adhesive and materials so that the final “on-shelf” and “in-home” performance of your products is flawless upon application to get it right the first time.
