Food Packaging Labels

Operating with BRCGS AA+ certification, we supply food labels to major retailers and brands that depend on consistency, compliance, and reliability at scale. From short runs to full-scale production, we produce custom food labels built around your product, your packaging and your supply chain.

01

A Food Label Has to Perform Across Its Entire Lifecycle

Food packaging demands more than print quality. It requires precision across every stage — from material selection to performance in real-world conditions.

That's why we use carefully specified food-grade materials and adhesives, selected for durability, safety, and application performance.

A food label has to do more than look good on shelf, it has to perform across its entire lifecycle. Done properly, it should:

  • Communicate essential ingredient, nutritional, and allergen information clearly
  • Meet all relevant food labelling regulations without compromise
  • Withstand moisture, oils, temperature changes, and handling throughout supply chains
  • Stand out in crowded retail environments and online marketplaces
  • Reinforce brand values and build long-term consumer trust

BRCGS AA+ Certified for Food Safety and Quality

We operate from a BRCGS AA+ certified facility, the highest grade under the Global Standard for Packaging Materials.

This certification verifies that our processes meet strict requirements for hygiene, traceability, quality control, and risk management in food packaging production.

For brands and retailers, it provides assurance that labels are produced within a fully audited system designed to maintain consistency and reduce risk at scale.

Regular independent audits ensure ongoing compliance with the standards expected across major food manufacturing and retail supply chains.

03

What We Produce for Food

Food packaging labels are frequently exposed to moisture, oils, condensation, freezing temperatures, and repeated handling, particularly in chilled and frozen supply chains.

To meet these demands, we specify materials from our PP/PE Film Labels range and select adhesives from our guidance on Choosing the Right Adhesive, ensuring consistent performance in demanding environments.

04

Meeting Food Labelling Requirements

Food labelling is highly regulated, requiring precise placement of ingredient declarations, allergen emphasis, nutritional tables, origin statements, and date coding.

Where space is limited, our Multi-Layered or Peel-and-Reveal Labels provide additional surface area for compliance information without compromising label design or clarity.

05

Print Clarity and Data Accuracy

Clear communication is critical in food labelling, particularly for small text, nutritional tables, and multilingual requirements.

Our Digital Printing and Flexographic Printing processes deliver high-resolution detail, ensuring barcodes and QR codes remain consistently scannable across the supply chain.

06

Shelf Impact and Finishing Options

In competitive retail environments, packaging needs to attract attention quickly while communicating quality and trust.

We offer a wide range of finishing options, including Laminates in gloss and matt, Varnish Finishes including spot UV, and Foiling and Cold Foil effects, to help brands achieve strong shelf presence.
