How It Works
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Not specifying adhesive type for the surface
Standard permanent adhesive fails on low-energy surfaces like HDPE plastic and certain painted metals. Always specify the surface material when ordering — removable, permanent, or high-tack adhesive are different products.
Missing ESMA-required Arabic fields
All consumable product labels sold in UAE must include Arabic product name, ingredients, manufacturer details, and expiry date. Non-compliant labels risk market withdrawal and fines from ESMA inspectors.
Designing labels without safe zone for curves
Labels on round bottles curl around the curve — text and logos placed at the very edges disappear to the back. Keep all critical information within the centre 80% of label width for cylindrical packaging.
Using online print templates for custom sizes
Generic templates don't account for label applicator tolerances. If you're applying labels by machine, supply your applicator's exact core size, label gap, and wind direction specifications.
