Food Packaging Labels
Ensuring your food products have all of the correct information regarding their ingredients, weight, allergens, best before dates and other necessary information is vital for the safety of all your consumers. This is why we supply high-quality labeling materials suitable for food packaging. Professional branding and packaging have been statistically shown to increase sales and brand loyalty, as they are more aware of what products they are purchasing, and who they are purchasing from.
If you would like to test any of our quality materials, you can order a sample pack to get a feel of what material or adhesive works best for you:
Product Name: A clear and accurate product name or description should be displayed on the label, which accurately reflects the contents of the package.
List of Ingredients: A list of all ingredients used to make the product should be provided on the label, in descending order of weight or volume. This is important for people with food allergies, intolerances, or dietary restrictions.
Net Weight/Volume: The net weight or volume of the product must be provided in the appropriate unit of measurement (e.g. grams, ounces, milliliters, fluid ounces) on the label.
Nutrition Facts: A nutrition facts panel should be provided on the label that lists the serving size, calories, total fat, saturated fat, trans fat, cholesterol, sodium, total carbohydrates, dietary fiber, sugars, and protein.
Allergen Information: Allergen information should be clearly listed on the label if the product contains any of the major food allergens, such as wheat, peanuts, tree nuts, soy, milk, eggs, fish, or shellfish.
Country of Origin: The country or countries of origin of the product should be listed on the label, in accordance with the relevant regulations.
Expiration Date: The expiration date or “best before” date should be printed on the label, indicating the date after which the product is no longer safe or effective to consume.
Storage Instructions: Storage instructions should be provided on the label to ensure that the product is stored properly to maintain its quality and safety.
Manufacturer/Importer Information: The name and address of the manufacturer or importer of the product should be included on the label.
GMOs (Genetically modified organisms): If there are any genetically modified organisms these need to be stated on the packaging.

Alternatively, we have Roll Labels
Roll labels are labels that are supplied in a roll form, with multiple labels printed on a continuous roll of material. Roll labels can be used for a variety of purposes, such as product labeling, barcode labeling, and packaging labeling.
Roll labels can be made from a variety of materials, including paper, polypropylene, and more, depending on the application and intended use of the label.
So why use a roll label?
- Convenience: Roll labels are easy to apply, especially for large-scale food packaging operations. They can be dispensed quickly and efficiently, reducing the time and effort required to label each product individually.
- Cost-effectiveness: Roll labels are generally more cost-effective than other labeling options, especially when produced in large quantities. They can also be customized to suit the specific needs of the food product and its packaging, without the need for additional equipment or resources.
- Flexibility: Roll labels can be printed in a variety of shapes, sizes, and colors, making them ideal for branding and marketing purposes. They can also be printed with additional information, such as nutrition facts, ingredients, and expiration dates, to ensure compliance with food labeling regulations.
- Sustainability: Roll labels can be made from a variety of materials, including biodegradable and recyclable options, making them an environmentally-friendly choice for food packaging products.

Food Packaging Labelling Materials
It is important to make sure that your label is not situated directly near your food product. As this can result in ink or toner contamination.
If you are looking for a label where durability doesn’t need to be a top priority, we have matt white paper labels that are not only cost-effective, but suitable for both laser and inkjet printing. These labels can be used to display important allergy and ingredient information, company branding, and manufacturing details. We can supply a large quantity of these labels, and get them shipped out the next day. Whether you are a large reseller or a small homemade business, these are great cost-effective labels.
These waterproof plastic labels are made from polyester. They are great for displaying your product branding, ingredients, allergens, and other information professionally while also providing a layer of water resistance to protect your labels from any liquids that may come into contact with them.
Want labels that can withstand low temperatures? Our freezer labels can go down to -40 degrees! Freezer labels are made out of paper, so if you want a label that is a little more water-resistant, our waterproof labels might be a better fit for you.
Another highly popular material is our coloured labels in red, green, blue, and yellow. If you need your products to stand out and be noticeable, adding some colour is a great way to do this! Our red labels are especially popular, as they can be used to mark warnings for allergens and other important information.
Perhaps you need a label that adds an essence of warmth and homely aesthetics to your good products. Perfect for small businesses looking to give off an approachable feel. These labels will stand out with their unique ribbed texture.
