Important considerations

What regulatory information do you need to include and what font size does this need to be in? Certain print methods might not be suitable for printing the smallest size text.

Do you need the option to create barcodes, serialise or print variable field data? Sometime you may need an additional piece of software with your printer to do this.
How will your labels be applied? If they are to be applied automatically then the orientation, label gap size and thickness will need to the checked.

HD Labels offer a wide range of materials suitable for vitamin and nutraceutical labels and can supply free samples for testing prior to ordering. We’d always recommend that you apply samples labels to the containers that you intend to use prior to ordering any labels.

Why print your own?

Digital printing can offer a cost effective solution for short run printed labels. Reasons for customers preferring this to having labels printed for them include:

• Complete control over inventory
• Ability to respond quickly to regulatory changes
• Ability to private label products
• No long lead time
• No minimum run sizes so reduced waste
• The ability to serialise and print variable field data

Popular equipment

For low to medium run sizes then the Epson C3500 or Afinia L501 is a durable printer ideal for vitamin labels. This is often combined with a semi-automatic label applicator such as the Bottle Matic 2.

For larger run sizes the Afinia L-701 or the L-801 combined with the DLF-220L allows you to produce any size or shaped label whilst adding an over laminate.
