Opting for a finish on your labels has many benefits such as adding longevity and durability of the label, as well completing the look and feel of the label on your product range. Varnishes are the most popular choice and come in a range of looks from glossy to matt or a rough textured finish.
Gloss
For a shiny finish adding a gloss varnish creates a vibrant label with bright stand out colours.
Matt
Matt varnishing creates a much softer flat finish which does not shine or glare when exposed to direct light.
Textured
Creating a sandpaper, rough textured label is a popular choice which entices consumers to feel the label.
Soft Touch
An ultra soft velvety to touch laminate oozes sophistication on a finished label design.
