Clear / Transparent Labels

We can print white onto clear!

We have the ability to print white onto clear labels which adds a whole new dimension to your print. So why is being able to print white important?

• Lay a white base below your colour to make your colour pop. Flat colours on clear labels can look faint or washed out. Adding a white base gives you a solid colour while still using a clear base. Also when printing barcodes and ingredients that need to be clear the white base ensures clarity for scanning etc.
• Print a combination of white and colour (shown in the image left) to add a different finish. Printing white allows your designer to be even more creative.

What are clear labels made from?

Clear labels are plastic and made from polypropylene. The advantages of this is that they are very clear and very durable. Polypropylene labels (PP) are used when people need quality & durability with their labels. You can print full colour + white.
