Ordering custom labels is not just about choosing a design and printing it. To ensure the labels meet your product requirements, brand image, and application environment, providing the right information before production is essential.

At Jinke Label, we help customers from different industries including food, beverage, cosmetics, healthcare, and daily products create high-quality custom labels. The more details you provide, the more accurately we can recommend materials, adhesives, printing methods, and finishing options.

1. Label Size and Shape

The first step is confirming the label dimensions.

Please provide:

• Label width and height
• Shape (rectangle, square, circle, custom shape)
• Corner radius (if needed)
• Roll direction requirements

Correct size information helps avoid fitting issues during application.

2. Label Material Requirements

Different products require different label materials.

Common options include:

Paper Labels

• Cost-effective
• Suitable for general packaging
• Ideal for dry environments

PET Labels

• Waterproof and durable
• Suitable for cosmetics, beverages, and outdoor applications

BOPP Labels

• Excellent moisture resistance
• Commonly used for bottles and food packaging

If you are unsure which material is suitable, our team can recommend the best option based on your product.

3. Application Environment

Where and how the label will be used is important.

Please consider:

• Will the product be refrigerated or frozen?
• Will it contact water, oil, or chemicals?
• Will it be exposed to sunlight?
• Is long-term durability required?

For example, frozen food labels need freezer-grade adhesive, while cosmetic labels usually require moisture resistance and premium appearance.
