Labels for small bottles

[-Chris-]

Hi all, how/where is a good place to get adhesive labels made for small 50ml bottles please?

 

[Jason Mageehan]

what size would you need the labels to be?

 

[-Chris-]

To fit onto a 50ml bottle - what sizes you got?

 

[Jason Mageehan]

Lots of shapes - even for 50ml bottles, but 72mm x 52mm stickers, 1,000 - £62 or 51mm diameter circle stickers, £74 - artwork if you need it is £47.50 per hour

Please message a link to some samples of them and previous artwork.

 

[Jason Mageehan]

By all means visit www.facebook.com/leaflet.printer to see a sample of our artwork.

Until I know more about the project I can't give you any more targeted samples.

In terms of a label picture, they would be trimmed gloss labels, unless you required anything more than that?

So what size do you want the labels?

 

[-Chris-]

The same answer as before really - open to ideas at this moment - what sizes you got?

 

[DontAsk]

Like a broken record, you just keep repeating the capacity of the bottle. Bottles come in many shapes and sizes.

What size/shape label do you want?

 

[-Chris-]

and like a broken record you keep asking what size labels. I'm looking at all shapes and sizes of labels at the moment.

 

[DontAsk]

In that case I suggest an A4 label. You will need to wrap it round the bottle a few times.

If that's the best you can do, then don't call me, I'll call you!

Sorry cant post links yet..
Remove the dot's

Have you tried www dot fastprint dot co dot uk/adhesive-stickers-labels

Depending upon what is going in the bottles you might want to make sure the labels are waterproof. We have used the permanent gloss ones without any issues.

Thank you very much for the useful reply pelparc, it's appreciated. Have just had a look at that page and it looks good - plenty of ideas. :thumbsup:

Chris..


Options on sizes for a 50ml bottle

1cm dia x 75cm high
4cm dia x 5cm high
1cm x 1cm x 50cm high
5cm x 5cm x 2cm high

I can understand why people want to know what size you would like, they are trying to be helpful here.

Labels can be made to any size but without an idea of size of label and just as importantly quantity (there is a huge difference between printing 10 labels and 10,000,000 label) I feel that you wont get the most from this forum.

Thanks for the parts that were useful, it's appreciated.

Sadly, some people just don't want to be helped. One of life's skills, also applicable to business, is being able to formulate questions in a way that will result in helpful/meaningful answers. It saves everyone's time in the long run.

 

[-Chris-]

Yep, some people just don't get it. Some people here gave very useful answers, some of which I'm working on right now. So, thanks to those people.

Chris, would love to help, and I gave you some prices earlier.

The problem we face is that a 50ml bottle doesn't conform to a standard - there could be tall and thin ones, short and fat ones, square edge bottles or round, long neck or short neck.....all sorts.

My suggestion would be that you cut out a piece of paper and put it around by hand and see what size it comes out as when you have a template that you're really happy with.

Also, it's really important for me as a printer to know the quantity that's required. There are several different printing technologies that could be used, and some will be more cost effective than others - for example the difference between digital printing and lithographic printing - 100 labels on digital will be cheap (per sticker) but 1,000 will be expensive (per sticker) - likewise 100 labels on lithographic will be expensive (per sticker) but 1,000 would be cheap (per sticker).

I hope that explains why you've received the response that you have. I'd like to help you and get you the right solution.

Everythings cool Jason, honest! I'm just weighing up various ways of doing it, on different items, that's all, it's really no biggie! ;-) I've never let negatives figure in my life - I've had some good ideas here and other places and am currently looking into them.
