Custom Coffee Labels
We’re Blue Label Packaging and we print custom coffee labels for roasters across the U.S. We work with single-location roasters and multi-SKU brands.
Coffee packaging has two common challenges. Roasted beans give off oil that works its way to the outside of the bag, and a degassing valve puts a hard edge under the label surface. We print on materials with adhesives that hold up to both, on kraft bags, foil-lined pouches, and tins.

Frequently Asked Questions
Copy
Not directly over it, no. The valve sits proud of the bag surface, so a label laid across it will tent and eventually lift at the edges.
The fix is layout rather than material. We position the label so the valve sits outside the label footprint, or we size the label to sit above or beside it. Send us the bag you are using, including the valve position, and we’ll lay the label out around it. If you have not chosen a bag yet, it is worth deciding that before the label design locks.

They can, especially on darker roasts and especially over time. Oil migrates through kraft and paper bags and reaches the adhesive from underneath, which is the failure mode most roasters do not see coming until a few weeks in.
Two things prevent it. A foil or poly-lined bag stops the oil migrating in the first place. Where the bag is unlined, we spec an adhesive rated for oily surfaces rather than a general-purpose one. Tell us which bag you are running and we’ll match the adhesive to it.
Copy
Yes, and it is one of the more common formats we print for. The thing to watch is the zipper track. It creates a raised ridge and a flex point, so a label crossing it will crease when the pouch is opened and closed.
We keep the label below the track, or size it to sit on the flat panel. Stand-up pouches also have a gusset at the base that behaves the same way, so the usable flat area is smaller than the bag looks.
