Labels · Algiers

The label that sticks,even in the fridge.

A standard jar, bottle or flask becomes a branded product. As long as the label withstands water, oil and cold, hugs the container and carries all its statements. We design it, choose the material and have it printed on rolls or sheets.

The real problem

A label that works on screencan fail on the jar.

The container, the use and the application matter as much as the graphics. That’s where most labels peel, stain or wrinkle.

Shape

Wrinkles on the jar

Drawn flat, a rectangular label wrinkles on a tapered container. We measure and curve it before printing.

Clear

Washed-out colours on glass

On clear or metallic film, without a white underlay beneath the colours, the label looks pale and unreadable.

What you get

From design to application,a label that does its job.

Graphics, material, adhesive and shape chosen together, for your container and your use.

Design

Brand label

Graphics, Arabic and French hierarchy, statements and barcode in place, on the area that can actually be labelled.

Material

Paper, film, speciality

Coated paper, white or clear film, textured or metallic paper: the material chosen for the use and the effect.

Volume

Rolls for application

Core, diameter and winding direction set for your labelling machine or hand application.

Small quantities

Sheets and single labels

For tests, trade fairs, parcels and gifts, die-cut to shape.

Finishes

Varnish, foil, die-cutting

Protection against rubbing, a premium effect, a round or custom shape: the cutting die is paid for once.

Range

One label per flavour

A shared grid, a colour or variable area per product: the range is rolled out without redoing everything.

How it works

Four steps.Tested before the run.

A printed mock-up stuck on the real container avoids a nasty surprise on ten thousand labels.

Frequently asked questions

Before you write to us,straight answers.

Which label resists water and oil?

A label on plastic film (polypropylene), possibly varnished or laminated. Unprotected paper stains on first contact.

Which paper for a jam or honey jar?

A speciality paper for an artisanal look if the jar stays dry, or a white film if it goes in the fridge or is likely to be handled with greasy hands.

Roll or sheet?

Rolls for large volumes or machine application; sheets for short runs and tests. For rolls, we’ll ask you for the core diameter and your machine’s winding direction.

And for chilled or frozen products?

A special cold adhesive, applied to a dry surface at room temperature: a standard adhesive can peel off.

Which statements on a food or cosmetic label?

Those required for your category, written in Arabic first. Our guides detail food and cosmetic labelling; we lay out the statements from your product sheet and point out what’s missing.

How much do labels cost?

The material, the shape, the finishes and the quantities make the price. After a first conversation, you receive a detailed quote that separates design from printing.
