What Are Blank Labels?
Blank labels are white or coloured roll labels without printing on them. They are mostly made for individual use in your production.
Where Are Blank Labels Used?
Blank labels are used wherever non-uniform products have to be marked. These can be, for example, goods such as food with different weights and prices. Blank labels are produced as self-adhesive labels on rolls or on sheets. In general, blank labels are used wherever uniform labelling is not possible.

What Are the Advantages of Labels Without Printing?
The biggest advantage of blank labels is the potential for individualisation. Unprinted labels are particularly in demand in food production or packaging. They allow for the indication of different weights and prices, for example, for fruit, vegetables or meat products. On top of that, they can be labelled manually.
Is There an Alternative to Blank Labels?
Blank labels are also often used in archives or libraries to mark media with various barcodes. You can either print these barcodes on your blank labels yourself – for example, with a thermal transfer printer – or leave this task to us. At label.co.uk, you can order barcode labels in various shapes and colours. When designing them, you should only make sure that the barcode can be read clearly and that the design is not too colourful. Interested?

Which Material Are Blank Labels Made of?
Blank labels consist of paper or foil for use in special thermal transfer printers. If you are looking for unusual materials for your labels without printing, our team will be happy to advise you. We offer paper and foils for thermal transfer printers as well as for direct thermal printers. Roll labels without printing can be applied mechanically or manually, just like other labels. Depending on the material, the labels are printed with different printers or by hand.
Which Shapes Are Available?
As with printed labels, the variety of shapes is almost limitless. In addition to the standard shapes (square, oval and round), irregular, individual shapes according to customer requirements are also possible. We are happy to receive your enquiries in this regard.

Get in Contact with Us
Of course, we will also advise you competently and in detail on the subject of blank labels if you are not sure which material, which shape or which size is best suited for your application. The question of material is crucial, for example, in the case of unprinted roll labels for food packaging, so that the goods do not come into contact with tasteless or possibly toxic substances.
