Can I run my labels through a secondary printing process?
Currently only select label materials are top coated to run through a secondary printing process.
Secondary printing is currently only available on our white film and chrome film roll labels with the Thermal Transfer Printable (Glossy) option on select thermal transfer printers. The rest of our label stock does not feature a top coat and should not be run through a secondary printer.
Does it matter what direction the labels come off of the roll?
The way the labels come off the roll is called the unwind direction. If the labels are applied by hand, the unwind direction is not critical. If the labels are machine applied or dispensed, then it is very important that you have the proper unwind direction for your machine or dispenser in order to apply the labels correctly on your container or packaging. Most label application machines have only one direction that a product can be moved across the label applicator.

What core sizes are available in your rolls, and are they important?
Our labels are supplied on 3" inner diameter corrugate paper cores. The core diameter is important if you are running the labels through a secondary printing and/or application process.
Is the corrugate paper core recyclable?
Yes, the core is made from recycled paper and can be recycled as well.
Can roll labels be auto-applied or auto-dispensed?
Yes, your roll labels are designed to be auto-applied or dispensed by machine if desired. Labels can be hand applied as well.
Which should I choose—roll labels or sheets?
It is more cost-effective to order roll labels when a large quantity is needed. Roll labels can be applied with a machine or by hand. Machine application offers an easier, faster and more precise placement of labels, but hand application is also simple when using roll labels. There are also more materials available in our roll catalogue and they can be varnished or laminated for extra durability. Sheet labels are perfect for small-quantity orders. They are designed for hand application only and are great for one-time promotions, small events or new businesses just starting out.
What is the core size of your roll labels?
The core size refers to the diameter of the inner core of roll labels. All of our roll labels come on a 3" corrugate paper core.

Are WePrint labels safe to use on food products?
WePrint labels include FDA-compliant* adhesives that are safe for indirect food contact. They are suitable for food and beverage labeling applications where the label is separated from the food by a functional barrier such as glass. For more information read this compliance regulation definition. Please note: This regulation does not mention temperature restrictions, however, Avery recommends that its adhesives should be kept at room temperature or below to be considered food safe. Adhesives exposed to conditions hotter than room temperature may require further migration testing to determine if they are suitable for the application.
If you have any concerns about your application, please call our Consumer Care Center.
* FDA Compliance: Title 21, Section 175.105 of the Code of Federal Regulations (21 CFR 175.105)
