Custom Jar Labels
We’re Blue Label Packaging, and we print custom jar labels for food, beverage, beauty, and home goods brands across the U.S. Salsa, jam, honey, candles, body scrub, and just about anything else that ships in a jar.
Our labels fit the right curves of each bottle and stand up to oils and refrigeration. We’ll help you choose the material, finish, and sizing so the label goes on straight and stays put without lifting or curling. No minimums, quotes in 24 hours, and consistent color across every run and reorder.

What Makes a Jar Label Different
Most label problems on a jar come down to one of four things.
- The curve. A jar has a tighter radius than a bottle of the same volume, and the tightest point is usually the shoulder. A label that is too tall or too wide for the panel will tent in the middle or lift at the corners. Rounded label corners help more than people expect.
- Glass versus plastic. Glass is smooth and non-porous, which sounds ideal but means the adhesive has less to grip. Cold glass is worse again. If your jars are filled and then refrigerated, tell us, because the adhesive has to bond before the jar goes cold.
- Moisture and refrigeration. Anything that lives in a fridge sweats when it comes out. A paper label will curl at the edges within a few cycles. Film handles it.
- Hot-fill and retort. If the product goes into the jar hot, or the sealed jar is heat-processed afterwards, the label has to survive that temperature without the ink shifting or the adhesive flowing. This is a different material specification from everything above, so flag it early.
Send us the jar you are using, or the dimensions and the fill process, and we’ll tell you what will work before you order.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, our custom jar labels are designed to be water resistant so that they maintain their integrity and appearance even when they come into contact with water. We achieve this by using high-quality synthetic label materials such as BOPP (Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene) and vinyl, which are known for their durability and resistance to moisture. We can also apply protective laminates or UV coatings to our labels, providing an extra layer of defense against water, oils, and other environmental factors.
Our water-resistant labels are perfect for products that might be exposed to condensation, spills, or humid environments. Whether you’re labeling jars for food, beverages, health and beauty products, or household items, you can trust that our labels will remain intact.
