A die-cutter is the tooling used in the finishing machine which cuts your labels to shape/size and then allows for the waste to be stripped away from around the label, leaving you with clean-cut labels supplied on the roll which are easy to peel away from the liner. We have a range of basic shape pre-existing dies that can be utilised for your labels and can be found free to download on the Our Standard Sizes page. We also cater to any labels that have a special or unique shape or require a size we do not currently have on hand will have new tooling purchased to suit.
The winding direction determines which direction we supply your labels off the roll. This can assist in making application easier for manual or hand application and can be critical for machine application. High-speed automated machines and semi-automated machines will have certain specifications and requirements for which direction the label must be supplied to ensure they apply on to the product right-way up. Please see our Winding Directions Chart for further information.

Depending on the size of the label, the standard number per roll for hand or manual application can be between 200 – 1000 labels per roll, and machine application will have a maximum roll diameter requirement, usually between 100mm – 400mm. If you have purchased a labelling machine or will be labelling through a mobile or professional application company, please advise their specifications and we can supply your rolls to suit.
Yes, we can perforate not only through your label for “tear here” and tamper-evident requirements but can also perforate through the liner to assist in ease of tearing so that they can be utilised as singles off the rolls for ease of distribution and convenience.
