Ink and finish

Dye or pigment CMYK

  • Individual HP CMYK cartridges in dye or pigment. Pigment suits BOPP and wet products.
  • Matte paper: the go-to for ingredient panels, barcodes and dry goods.
  • Gloss paper: richer colour and shine for retail shelves and gift packaging.
  • BOPP (matte or gloss): choose it for fridges, oils, condensation and anything that gets handled.

L501 label questions

Do L502 rolls fit the L501?

The 3" core matches. Every roll on this page is wound to 6", which suits both.

Dye or pigment for the L501?

Pigment for anything wet or handled; dye for the brightest colour on paper.

Die-cut or continuous?

Die-cut gives you clean, consistent shapes and gaps for production runs. Continuous lets you print any length, which suits shops labelling many different products.

Can you make a size that is not listed?

Yes. We convert rolls in-house in Mississauga, so custom widths, lengths, circles and materials on a 3" core are available. Send us your size.
