Labels on Roll

Four materials, each with its own page: White BOPP for most product labels, Clear BOPP for a no-label look, Silver BOPP for a metallic finish (always laminated), and Paper for dry, indoor or short-term use. BOPP is waterproof, oil and moisture resistant and fridge-proof. For larger single-lane runs, labels on 312mm wide core come in White or Clear BOPP. Our roll label materials guide compares them side by side.

Yes, our White, Clear, and Silver BOPP roll labels are fully waterproof and resistant to oils, moisture, and light. Paper labels on a roll are not waterproof and are recommended for dry environments.

 All our printed roll labels use ultra-high resolution Durst UV-gel inks for sharp text, clean gradients, and consistent colour from start to finish. 

The number of lanes your labels run across depends on the width of each label and how many cores fit across the press at once. Our system automatically sets this up for the most efficient production and pricing. 

If your labels are wider, we run a single lane at 312 millimetres across, giving a maximum label width of 308 millimetres. For smaller labels, we can run multiple lanes side by side. Two lanes across fit labels up to 152 millimetres wide, three lanes up to 100 millimetres, four lanes up to 74 millimetres, five lanes up to 58 millimetres, and six lanes up to 48 millimetres. 

Because the machine runs in fixed sets, the number of kinds per lot is locked to the number of cores being used. For example, if your job runs three cores across, you can order in multiples of three kinds such as 3, 6, 9, or 12 to maintain an even, efficient setup. This keeps production balanced, reduces waste, and ensures all labels are cut, wound, and packed consistently across the roll.

Yes. Our rolls are cut and wound to run in automatic applicators. Choose Machine Applied at checkout and select the label direction on the roll. All rolls are wound on 76mm cores.

Yes. White BOPP has an optional Indoor Matt or Indoor Gloss laminate, and Silver BOPP is always laminated. Clear BOPP isn’t laminated. Paper can’t be laminated, so if you need a laminate, choose White or Silver BOPP. Our laminates are for indoor use only and break down quickly in sunlight.

Turnaround is in business days to dispatch, for orders placed before the 1pm Melbourne cut-off: up to $2,000 + GST in 2 days, up to $3,000 in 3 days, up to $4,000 in 4 days, up to $5,000 in 5 days and up to $6,000 in 6 days. Larger orders show their dispatch date in your Job Summary. Hover over the 48 Hour Production icon on this page to see the table.

We don't offer design or layout services for product label printing, as we operate purely as a trade printer. However, our preflight system checks artwork for common setup issues before printing your roll labels. 

Not as outdoor signage. Paper labels aren’t outdoor durable, unlaminated BOPP only lasts a few months outdoors before it deteriorates, and our Indoor Matt and Indoor Gloss laminates are indoor only and break down quickly in sunlight. Roll labels are made for packaging and indoor products, including chilled and wet environments. For anything going outside, order large format stickers or Corflute® signs instead.

Yes. Every label on the roll is laser cut to its shape, so you get die-cut roll labels without paying for a die: squares and rectangles, circles and ovals, or custom simple shapes with up to five points, from 30 x 30mm. The cut goes through the label only, the waste is removed, and the labels peel straight off the liner. Our custom label printing brief covers what to confirm with your client before you order.

No. Labels on Roll orders must be placed using the materials, sizes, core options, and turnaround times available in our system at the time of ordering, and we’re unable to make exceptions or manually process one-off requests outside of those options. Label production relies on tightly controlled workflows for press setup, finishing, slitting, and winding to ensure consistent registration, adhesive performance, and roll integrity across trade volumes. Our system settings reflect what can be produced accurately and reliably at scale, and we do not have a workaround for bypassing those rules for individual jobs. If you regularly require a different label specification in volume or see broader customer demand, we welcome that feedback for consideration as a long-term system enhancement.

We limit the number of artworks or kinds per Labels on Roll job to ensure the order can be processed reliably through our automated production and fulfilment systems. When offering free delivery, we must plan for a worst-case scenario in terms of the number of rolls produced and shipped, as each additional artwork can significantly increase handling, packing, and freight complexity. Our system and automated floor are designed to efficiently manage a defined number of artworks and rolls per job, and exceeding that threshold introduces production risk and delivery inconsistency. Where more kinds are required, orders must be split so they can be processed accurately and delivered reliably.

Labels on Roll are produced using fixed roll and lane configurations to suit our 312mm wide production stock, and each roll within a job must contain labels of the same size and shape so all rolls wind to the same diameter. If roll diameters vary, it can cause tension issues during weeding or winding and may lead to machine jams. As a result, certain quantities may require rounding up to fully populate the required number of lanes or rolls. We do not offer binning or splitting services, as this increases handling complexity and reduces reorder efficiency. In these cases, we recommend either selling the additional labels to your customer as added value, or having the order delivered to you so you can split quantities as required and retain remaining labels for future use.

Yes. Labels on a roll can be any size from 30 x 30mm up to 308mm wide and 1000mm long, cut as a square or rectangle, circle or oval, or a custom simple shape with up to five points from our die library or your own simple die line. There are no die setup fees. Our roll label sizing guide covers sizes, cores and wind direction.

 Our label and print service is fully online — upload your artwork, select your size, material, and core, and we handle the rest. Every job is printed and cut to your custom die line, then wound onto rolls ready for application. The system is designed for trade volume, but works equally well for shorter custom printed roll labels runs from 100 units upward. 

 Yes. Our product label printing is widely used by Australian food (excluding direct food contact), beverage, cosmetic, and household brands. Choose BOPP for waterproof, fridge-safe roll labels, or paper for dry indoor use. Every roll is printed in Melbourne, and orders up to $2,000 + GST placed before the 1pm cut-off dispatch in 2 business days.

Yes, we print BOPP labels in almost any custom simple shape or size you require. Our BOPP labels are available in White, Clear, and Silver finishes, all printed with high-resolution Durst UV inks for vibrant colour and long-lasting durability. Thanks to our advanced laser cutting capabilities and one of Australia's largest die libraries, you can order custom BOPP labels without paying additional setup or tooling costs. They're ideal for food, beverage, cosmetic, and chilled product packaging where moisture resistance and a premium finish are required. 

A roll of labels is supplied wound onto a 76mm core, ready for either hand application or use in automatic label applicators. Compared to sheet labels, a roll of labels offers faster application, more consistent orientation, and better suitability for high-volume runs. Every roll of labels we produce is precision cut, waste-removed, and packed in production-ready format, making them a more efficient choice for retail, FMCG, and branded packaging where speed and consistency matter. 

Yes. The minimum order is $120 + GST ($60 + GST on 312mm wide core rolls), and above that you order the quantity you need, from around 100 labels on a roll for a short run to 100,000 for a full production cycle. Every order is printed, cut and packed to the same trade standard, which suits product launches, sample runs, seasonal SKUs and short-cycle FMCG work. Quantities may round up to fill the lanes on the roll.

Yes, our printed roll labels can be supplied as sticker labels on rolls for retail, promotional and product applications, on White, Clear or Silver BOPP or Paper. White BOPP can have an optional Indoor Matt or Indoor Gloss laminate, Silver BOPP is always laminated, and Clear BOPP and Paper aren’t laminated. They’re printed on the same Durst UV press as all our roll labels. Please note: Paper is not outdoor durable, unlaminated BOPP only lasts a few months outdoors, and our laminates are indoor only. All of them last well indoors.

Mediapoint prints roll labels on White, Clear and Silver BOPP and Paper. White BOPP can have an Indoor Matt or Indoor Gloss laminate, Silver BOPP is always laminated, and Clear BOPP and Paper are unlaminated. Every label is laser cut to your shape and blind-shipped under your brand.

Labels on a roll are supplied wound onto a core rather than on sheets, so they feed straight into hand or machine applicators. They suit volume application lines and are the standard format resellers reorder.

Choose roll labels when labels are applied in volume or by machine, and sheet labels for small hand-applied runs. Most trade reorders are roll labels because they apply faster and waste less.
