Find Your Label Size
Whether your jar requires a circular, rectangular, or custom-shaped label, we provide various options to suit your needs. Here are a few tips to consider when selecting your label size.
Oval labels can help give your product the cleanest visuals and leave room for design, text, and negative space.
Hexagon labels are a popular option when creating honey labels. This shape is naturally associated with honeycomb patterns, making them a perfect visual tie to honey and the bees that produce it.
Circle labels are an excellent option for lids and work perfectly if you want to put a logo on the top of your jar or show the flavor. Their simplicity makes them suitable for any type of jar, whether round, rectangular, or uniquely shaped.
Select a Label Material
Choosing the right material for your labels is as important as the design. The selected material will affect your labels' visual appeal, durability, and functionality.
Avoid anything paper-based. these materials are not ideal for honey labels since stickiness and spills can ruin your designs. Instead, opt for film-based materials like our weatherproof labels. This way, your labels will look professional and transparent through shipping damage, moisture, and more.
