I have an existing label, but I don’t have the artwork. What can I do?
A: Don’t worry, we can recreate artwork from an original label. We ask that the label be as undamaged as possible and it has no marks or scratches.
Can I have my labels supplied individually and not on a roll?
A: Yes, we can sheet your roll labels to individuals.
What does “NEL” mean on my quote?
A: NEL is an example of winding directions and stands for Narrow Edge Leading. This means that the labels come off the roll with the narrowest edge first. Other directions are as follows.
My Labels are applied by machine, what information do you require?
A: If your labels are machine applied then we require the following information:-
