Custom Opaque Labels for Over Labelling
Opaque labels are ideal for correcting errors, covering incorrect barcodes, changing prices or labelling imported products. In technical terms, opacity is the opposite of transparency, i.e. low transparency. Normal roll labels are not suitable for such applications, as they are usually too transparent and the contents underneath may show through.
We offer two types of opaque labels:
- Opaque paper labels: These are 100% opaque and permanently adhesive. The back of the opaque paper labels is coated with a special dark colour so that no content can show through. These labels are suitable for sticking over coloured backgrounds, images and text.
- Opaque film labels: We also offer a film material with a silver backing that prevents the contents from showing through.
As these are special materials, they cannot be ordered as standard via the calculator, but must be requested with our customer service team. If you have any questions, we will be happy to answer them. We will also send you samples of opaque labels on request.
No Restrictions for Your Creativity
We can produce labels with barrier layers both on paper and on foils, in matt or glossy as well as with numerous finishes. You can also freely choose the size of the roll cores, roll width of the single rolls as well as the colour and shape of the wound labels. Whether black, white, silver, purple in square, round or individual shape – there are virtually no restrictions for your opaque stickers.
