Deli Labels

We can work with you to create amazing looking labels that will work with your container and handle the environmental conditions that it will be stored in like refrigeration or moisture. Your label has to not only keep your product safe but also needs to entice the customer into buying your product. Bright colors, metallic foils, clear films and more are just some of the design options that will set you apart from the crowd.

A Deli department usually has hundreds of different shaped containers and packages for all the delicious foods they sell. All those odd-shaped containers need labels. And the labels have to look good.

Deli Label Tips

Materials:

Use a clear label material or metallic foils for the look of quality and to create dimensional effects with your label.
Be sure to use label materials that will stand up to damp and/or refrigerated conditions.
Always test your label adhesives to make sure they will stick securely to your containers, especially plastic clamshells and other non-paper materials.

Artwork:

Use unique designs and colors to create a family of products. This makes it easier for consumer to return to your brand by sight.
Keep your design simple but eye-catching. Create patterns on your label or subtle designs using dull or gloss varnishes.
Custom die shapes allow you to use interesting shapes for your label.
Add a QR code so your customers can interact with your company, get coupons, recipes and more.

Gravy Labels

Deli labels come in all shapes and sizes, and many of them are round labels used for clamshell and lidded containers like this gravy label.

This label is a great example of an appetizing design using complimentary colors and showing the product in use. This label is also part of a family of labels for this brand that are easily recognizable and that change slightly with the season.

These labels were printed on our high-resolution HP digital presses.

These labels are a redesign we did for a company that manufactures deli meats. The upgrade of their label included using foil to create reflective highlights and a more modern, realistic look to the label.
