Sauce and Seasoning Labels

Choosing the right materials for your sauce and seasoning labels—whether it’s for hot sauce, BBQ sauce, salsa, or spices—depends on the specific needs of your product. Here are some factors to consider when selecting from our wide variety of material options:

1. Durability and Moisture Resistance: For products exposed to liquids or stored in humid environments like hot sauce or salsa, it’s important to choose a weatherproof material like BOPP (biaxially-oriented polypropylene) or synthetic materials like vinyl. These are both water-resistant and can handle exposure to oil or moisture.
2. Temperature Resistance: If your product will be stored in refrigerators, hot kitchens, or exposed to fluctuating temperatures, consider durable materials like polyester (PET) that can withstand these conditions without peeling or fading.
3. Aesthetic Considerations: For a premium look, especially for artisanal or specialty products, premium materials like metallic foils or FSC-certified products add a high-end finish. Clear labels, made from BOPP or polyester, also offer a sleek, minimalistic design that highlights your product.
4. Protective Coatings: Adding protective laminates in gloss or matte finishes helps protect your labels from scuffs, scratches, and moisture, while enhancing the overall look. Gloss provides a shiny, eye-catching finish, while matte laminates give a more subtle, refined appearance.
5. Environmental Considerations: If sustainability is important for your brand, we offer FSC-certified products that meet high environmental standards. These materials are sourced responsibly so you can market your product as eco-friendly.

By understanding your product’s needs and making the right selection of materials, from weatherproof materials to premium materials, you can create durable, attractive labels that will stand up to real-world conditions.
