Blank Candle Label Rolls in Canada: Sizing and Materials
ForeFront manufactures blank inkjet label rolls and supplies printers and compatible consumables for Canadian businesses printing their own approved candle-label artwork.
For candle containers exposed to oils, wax residue, humidity or heat, qualify the exact label construction on the intended jar. BOPP film alone does not establish oil, heat or flame resistance.
Candle Label Materials: Matte and Gloss Paper or BOPP Film
Candle labels are handled often, containers warm up, and fragrance oils or wax residue can touch the label. Choosing the right material helps prevent peeling and keeps your packaging looking premium.
- Matte paper for a clean artisan finish in dry retail settings.
- Gloss paper for retail shine and bold colors.
- BOPP film constructions to test for the expected oils, moisture and handling.
If you print in-house, we can also help match roll specs to your setup, including size, core, and roll direction.
Common Candle Label Sizes in Canada
Measure the straight wall area on your jar or tin. If the container curves, choose a shorter label height to reduce wrinkles.
