  • Clear Matte Labels: A Cost-Effective Custom Printing Alternative

    July 15, 2024

    Small businesses are constantly looking to enhance their brand's visual appeal without breaking the bank.

    Looking for an innovative custom print alternative? Check out Avery's Matte Clear Film Labels.

    These labels may be the best alternative to custom printing that we've ever seen. Seriously.

    They offer the perfect blend of cost-efficiency and aesthetics. You can buy as little as 8 labels, if you like. They come in all shapes and sizes for your labeling needs. Did we mention that they're basically indistinguishable from custom printed boxes? These bad boys may be the best kept secret in box customization.

    The Clear Advantage: Why Choose Clear Matte Labels?

    • Cost-Effective Customization

      Custom printing directly onto boxes is expensive, especially for small businesses. Avery's clear matte labels are much more affordable and accessible at generous low order minimums.

      By printing your logo, graphics, or text onto these labels and applying them to your boxes, you can achieve a high-end, professional look without the hefty price tag.

    • Seamless Labeling for a Professional Look

      One of the standout features of clear matte labels is their ability to blend seamlessly with the surface of your packaging.

      Once applied, the label virtually disappears - giving the impression that your design is printed directly onto the box. This creates a sleek, polished appearance that enhances your brand's professional image.

    • Versatility in Design and Application

      Whether you need to showcase intricate graphics, bold logos, or essential product information, Avery's clear matte labels can handle it all.

      The matte finish ensures that your designs are sharp and vibrant, without any glare, making them easy to read and visually appealing. They also adhere well to various surfaces, including cardboard and glass, providing flexibility in your packaging choices.

    How to Use Clear Matte Labels for Your Packaging

    1. Design Your Label

      Incorporate your logo, tagline, and any other essential elements you want to include.

      Get creative with messaging. Create labels for both the outside and inside of your boxes. You can order their blank label sheets so you can print them yourself or use Avery's WePrint custom printing service that allows you to upload your design and choose the size and shape that best fits your needs.

    2. Print and Apply

      Once you've finalized your design, you can choose to either print your labels at home by ordering them in convenient label sheets or Avery can print your labels for you.

      Before applying your labels, make sure the surface of the box is clean and dry. Then carefully place the label, smoothing out any bubbles or wrinkles for a flawless finish.

    Real-World Applications

    Small Businesses and Startups

    Many small businesses have turned to clear matte labels as a cost-effective way to compete with larger brands. The costs and minimum order quantities associated with standard printed boxes is inaccessible for most small businesses.

    Additionally, stocking-up on packaging that requires high order minimums increases risk and reduces your mobility of trying other printed options, in case you change your mind on your graphics, colors, etc.

    Avery labels allow you to experiment with different designs, creating a low-risk environment for you to test what works best for your brand.

    Event and Seasonal Packaging

    Clear matte labels are also perfect for seasonal promotions or special events. You case use these labels to create festive packaging for the holidays or limited-edition product launches. This flexibility allows for quick and cost-effective changes to packaging designs as needed.

    Conclusion

    Avery's Matte Clear Film Labels offer an innovative, cost-effective solution for businesses looking to enhance their packaging without the expense of custom printing directly onto boxes. Explore the possibilities and discover how this simple change can make a significant impact on your packaging strategy.
