Roll labels are a practical format for producers who want to save time on the packing line. We make self-adhesive paper and film labels for both hand and automatic application. We also match core size, outer diameter and unwind direction to your equipment.
Here, labels sit one after another on a siliconized liner wound onto a cardboard core. An even gap separates them, so you can apply them quickly and accurately. To compare formats, see our product labels overview.
Applicator-ready
We set core, outer diameter and unwind direction to your machine specs.
Easy by hand too
Labels peel easily, so small batches go on fast by hand.
Paper and film
For example, paper for dry goods, PP or PE film for wet ones.
Room for barcodes
We also reserve space for barcodes, dates and batch numbers.
Roll label materials
Material choice depends on storage conditions and the packaging surface. For example, paper is cost-effective for dry boxes and bags. However, film is more reliable on chilled or greasy products. For squeeze bottles, we recommend flexible PE film, because it bends with the container. Freezers also need a special adhesive, which we confirm on request.
| Material | Properties | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Self-adhesive paper (matte, semi-gloss) | Cost-effective, vivid print | Dry food, boxes, jar lids |
| White PP film | Resists moisture and grease | Beverages, sauces, household chemicals |
| Clear PP film | No-label look | Glass bottles, cosmetics |
| PE film | Flexible, no wrinkles when squeezed | Shampoos, creams, squeeze bottles |
| Thermal paper | For on-demand printing | Barcode and weight labels |
Roll label specs: core, diameter and unwind direction
To make labels fit your applicator or printer, we agree on three parameters in advance. Your equipment manual usually lists all three, and an old roll shows them as well.
- Core size: 25, 40 or 76 mm, depending on your printer or applicator.
- Outer diameter: no larger than your machine maximum. It also sets the number of labels per roll.
- Unwind direction: which label edge comes off first, and whether labels face out or in.
The industry marks unwind direction with positions 1–8 from the FINAT chart. In positions 1–4, labels face out, while in 5–8 they face in. For example, position 1 feeds the top edge first and position 2 the bottom edge. The wrong choice makes the applicator place labels upside down or sideways.
Automatic applicator or hand application
An automatic applicator peels each label off the liner and places it in the same spot at speed. So label gap and die-cut accuracy matter most here. For hand application, however, convenience comes first: labels should peel easily, and the roll should fit your dispenser.

Who uses custom roll labels
Rolls pay off most at high daily packing volumes. For example, food and drink makers order food labels for jars and bottles, while beauty brands choose water-resistant cosmetic labels. Warehouses and retailers also order barcode labels on rolls. For the full food-sector kit, see food and beverage labels.
Ordering roll labels in 4 steps
Step 1: Share the specs
First, send label size, quantity, material, core size and your equipment model.
Step 2: Advice and quote
Then we confirm unwind direction and material and quote within 24 hours on business days.
Step 3: Proof approval
Next, we send the final proof with die line and winding diagram.
Step 4: Print and wind
Finally, we print, die-cut and wind your labels to the agreed specs.
What drives price and lead time
We price roll labels by run size, material and specs. The general rule: the larger the run, the lower the price per label. Across the industry, long runs usually go to flexographic presses, while short runs suit digital printing. We confirm the method and lead time in your quote. Main factors:
- size, shape and number of colors
- material and adhesive type
- lamination or varnish
- run size and number of designs (SKUs)
- roll specs: core, diameter and labels per roll.
Artwork and die lines
Send vector artwork (AI, PDF, EPS or SVG) with the die line on a separate layer. Add 2 mm of bleed and keep text at least 2 mm inside the cut line. If you print dates and batch numbers on the line, leave a blank, unvarnished area. Our label artwork guidelines include a full checklist.
Roll labels FAQ
Roll specs
Which core size should I choose?
Match the core to your equipment: desktop label printers usually take 25 or 40 mm, while industrial applicators typically need 76 mm. Your manual lists the exact size. If in doubt, send us a photo of an old roll. A wrong core simply will not fit, so we confirm it before printing.
What is unwind direction and why does it matter?
It shows which label edge leaves the roll first and whether labels face out or in. The industry marks it with FINAT positions 1–8. The wrong direction makes applicators place labels upside down, so we always confirm the position before printing.
How many labels fit on one roll?
That depends on label height, the gap between labels and the maximum outer diameter. Naturally, more small labels fit on a roll than large ones. We calculate the count for your equipment and state it in the quote. Need a fixed count per roll for stock control? Just mention it.
Equipment, data and wholesale
Are roll labels suitable for label applicators?
Yes, we make roll labels with automatic applicators in mind and match core, outer diameter, unwind direction and label gap to your machine. Share the model, and we will confirm the specs faster. The same rolls also work by hand.
Can you add dates or batch numbers?
Producers usually add dates and batch numbers on the line with a thermal transfer printer, so we leave a blank, unvarnished area for them. If you need sequential numbering on the label itself, we will confirm it in your quote.
Do you supply roll labels wholesale or for export?
Yes, we quote large runs for producers and distributors. Keeping one label size across several SKUs usually helps the unit price, because the same cutting die and roll setup can be reused. For delivery outside Azerbaijan, tell us the destination and preferred Incoterm, and we will confirm options.
