Choose From Standard or ‘white ink’ Clear Labels
Standard – This involves coloured toner only for simpler designs. However, the printed parts will be very slightly translucent.
White ink – If you need fully opaque colours, or you need to print images or gradients, then choose this option. The white ink can print any white parts of your design, and also serves as a background layer for the coloured toner.

What Are Clear Labels?
Clear labels are a type of sticker printed on transparent material, such as polypropylene, which allows the underlying surface to show through. This creates a seamless and professional look, as the clear background makes the design appear as if it's directly printed onto the surface.
At Fast Labels, we use high-resolution HP Indigo printers to produce clear labels with vivid colours and fine details, ensuring your artwork stands out on any background.
Benefits of Using Clear Labels
Using clear labels offers several benefits:
- Versatility: Suitable for application on various surfaces, including glass, plastic, and metal.
- Visual Appeal: Clear labels eliminate unsightly backgrounds, enhancing your products with a sleek, transparent finish that makes designs appear printed directly onto your packaging.
- Durability: Waterproof, tear-resistant, and UV resistant, ensuring long-lasting performance in various environmental conditions.
- Transparency: Showcase your products clearly, allowing the surface beneath your label to blend seamlessly with your artwork for a sophisticated look.
- Branding Flexibility: Ideal for products with transparent packaging, allowing the label to complement rather than cover the design
Popular Uses for Clear Labels
Clear labels are popular for numerous applications across different industries:
- Product Labelling: Ideal for food, drink, and cosmetics where a clear, seamless appearance reinforces product quality.
- Branding: Enhance packaging with transparent labels to subtly reinforce branding without obscuring the product itself.
- Informational Stickers: Suitable for displaying important information without distracting from the product’s design, such as instructions or nutritional facts.
- Decorative Purposes: Excellent for adding decorative elements to products or packaging without overshadowing the main design
Tips for Applying Clear Labels
To ensure your clear labels look their best, we tend to follow these tips for accurate application:
- Clean the Surface: Make sure the surface is clean, dry, and free of any dust or oil to ensure the label adheres properly.
- Apply Evenly:
- Avoid Touching the Adhesive: Handle the labels carefully to avoid fingerprints or dust on the adhesive side.
- Test Positioning: Before fully applying, position the label to check alignment and ensure it’s straight and centred
