Candle Labels

Candles enjoy ever greater popularity. With their exclusive scents they create a feeling of luxury, in the comfort of your own home. However, unlike other luxury products, candles are not just reserved for the rich and famous.

Of course the quality of the oils and wax used in creating candles is immensely important. However, a high-value label can make all the difference between a top seller and a shelf warmer.

With this in mind, how can you make sure people will buy your product? Here are a few points we’ve found to be important to consider for successful candle businesses looking to print premium, custom candle labels.

Whether you want to apply custom printed candle labels to glass jars or plastic pots, you’ll need to be able to produce the right size labels to ensure a professional, seamless fit. There is a large number of different dimensions of jars used in candle manufacturing; not just in terms of shape but also size, diameter and volume. Whichever kind of label you are going to apply, you’ll need to be able to determine the exact size. When it comes to the application of candle labels to pots, you may need a circular label made to a non-standard diameter or a square label with rounded corners. As a professional label manufacturer, we offer all custom shapes and sizes for candle labels.

For businesses with a number of candle scents within their range, digital label printing offers many advantages. If the size of the labels remains the same across all varieties, we can produce all of your custom label designs in just one print run. This allows you to keep the printing process for your candle labels cost-effective. Digital label printing also allows you to have seasonal varieties printed alongside your core range. You are free to split the total number of labels produced across an unlimited number of scents. This is also useful if you have a clear best seller. Simply share a larger proportion of the overall order to this particular scent.
