Label applications

Labels designed around what the business needs them to do

A label may need to communicate a brand, identify a product, carry important information or support an operational process. Starting with the intended use makes it easier to determine the right size, layout and production approach.

01

Product labels

Printed labels that identify products and carry the branding, product name or other information needed for presentation and use.

Useful for: products, containers and packaged items
02

Packaging labels

Labels used as part of the finished packaging presentation where clear brand or product information needs to be applied consistently.

Useful for: boxes, bags, containers and packaged goods
03

Business branding labels

Branded labels for business materials, packaging, correspondence and other applications where company identity needs to be carried onto a physical item.

Useful for: brand identification and everyday business use
04

Identification labels

Labels created to make items, areas, equipment or business material easier to recognise, organise or identify.

Useful for: internal identification and organised business environments
05

Information & operational labels

Printed labels used where practical information, instructions, references or other operational details need to be clearly displayed.

Useful for: workplaces, products, processes and operational requirements
06

Custom label requirements

Not every label fits a standard category. DSP can assess the finished size, quantity, artwork and intended application to help determine a practical production route.

Useful for: specialised business, promotional and recurring label requirements

Not sure what type of label to request? Start with where the label will be used, what information it needs to carry, the approximate size and quantity, and any artwork you already have. DSP can help work through the remaining production details.

Discuss Your Labels
Planning your labels

Start with how the label needs to look, fit and function

A label has to work as part of the item it is applied to. Thinking about the finished size, information, artwork and intended use at the start helps shape a more practical production requirement.

01

Finished size & shape

The available space and proportions of the item being labelled help determine how the artwork and information should be arranged within the finished label.

02

Information hierarchy

Decide which information needs to be noticed first. Brand name, product information, instructions or identification details should remain clear within the available label space.

03

Intended application

Explain where and how the label will be used. The intended application helps DSP understand the practical requirements of the finished label before production is planned.

04

Quantity

Share the approximate number of labels required, including whether the need is a once-off project or part of an ongoing business requirement.

05

Artwork & branding

Send any existing logo, brand artwork or label layout you already have. DSP can assess whether the supplied artwork is ready for production or needs further preparation.

06

Finished purpose

Product presentation, branding, identification and operational information can place different demands on a label. The intended purpose should guide the design and production decisions.

Do not have finished label artwork yet? DSP's in-house design team can help prepare or adapt the layout around the size, branding, information and intended application.

Label production process

A practical route from label requirement to finished print

The label needs to work visually and practically in its final application. DSP can help confirm the requirement, prepare the artwork and move the approved job through production and finishing.

  1. Confirm the label application

    Start with what the label needs to do, where it will be used, the approximate size, quantity and the information it needs to carry.

  2. Prepare the artwork

    Existing artwork can be checked and adapted where necessary, or DSP's in-house design support can help prepare a suitable layout around the finished label size and content.

  3. Confirm the production requirement

    The approved size, quantity, artwork and intended use are brought together into a clear production specification before the job proceeds.

  4. Produce the labels

    The approved label artwork moves into print production according to the agreed business, product or operational requirement.

  5. Finish and prepare the order

    The labels are completed according to the agreed format and prepared as a finished order ready for the intended application.

Label Printing FAQs

Questions businesses often ask before ordering custom labels

You do not need to arrive with every technical detail already decided. The intended use, approximate size, quantity, required information and any existing artwork are usually enough to start the discussion.

What information should I send when requesting a label printing quote?

Include what the labels will be used for, the approximate size, quantity, information that needs to appear on them and any existing logo or artwork. If some of these details are still undecided, DSP can help work through the practical requirements.

Can DSP help design or prepare the label artwork?

Yes. DSP provides in-house design and artwork support. Existing label artwork can be assessed and adapted for production, or a new layout can be prepared around the available size, branding and information that needs to be included.

How do I know what type of label is right for my requirement?

Start by explaining where the label will be used, what it needs to communicate and how it fits into the finished product or business application. DSP can then assess the size, artwork and practical production requirements rather than expecting you to select the production method yourself.

Can DSP help with recurring label requirements?

Yes. If labels form part of an ongoing product, packaging, identification or operational requirement, share the expected quantities and how frequently they are needed so the job can be assessed as a recurring business requirement.

Still working out what the finished label should be? Send DSP the application, size, quantity and information you already have and the team can help clarify the remaining details.

Planning the pad printing job

Start with the physical item and where the print needs to appear

Pad printing requirements should be assessed around the actual item or component. A clear photograph or sample, dimensions, print position, artwork and quantity give DSP the information needed to evaluate the job before production is confirmed.

01

Item or component

Explain what needs to be printed and provide a clear photograph, sample or accurate description where practical. The physical item itself is an important part of assessing the production requirement.

02

Overall dimensions

Provide the approximate size of the item or component so DSP can understand the physical scale of the job and assess the proposed print area in context.

03

Print position & area

Show where the logo, wording, symbol or identification needs to appear. A marked-up photograph with the approximate print position and dimensions can make the requirement much clearer.

04

Artwork & information

Send the best available logo, graphic, wording, numbering or existing artwork. DSP's in-house design team can help adapt the layout around the confirmed print area where artwork preparation is required.

05

Quantity

Confirm how many items need to be printed and whether the same artwork is repeated throughout the job or whether different versions are required.

06

Intended use

Explain how the printed item will be used and whether the requirement is for branding, identification, promotional use or another specialist production application.

Not sure whether the shape or print position will work? Send DSP photographs of the actual item from a few useful angles, together with the approximate dimensions, required print position, quantity and artwork. The application can then be assessed before the production method is confirmed.

Pad Printing FAQs

Questions to consider before sending a pad printing job

Pad printing needs to be assessed around the actual physical item, available print area, artwork, quantity and intended use. These are useful starting points when discussing the requirement with DSP.

How do I know whether my item is suitable for pad printing?

Suitability depends on the specific item or component, its shape and dimensions, the required print area and the finished application. Send DSP a clear photograph or sample description together with the artwork and quantity so the requirement can be assessed before production is confirmed.

What should I send DSP when requesting a pad printing quote?

Provide a photograph or description of the item, its approximate dimensions, the required print position, quantity and available artwork. It is also useful to explain what the finished item will be used for and when the job is required.

Can DSP adapt my logo or artwork to the available print area?

Yes. DSP's in-house design team can work from supplied logos, wording, symbols or existing artwork and adapt the layout around the confirmed print area and production requirement where needed.

What if I do not know whether pad printing, silk screening or UV printing is best?

You do not need to choose the production method before contacting DSP. Send the physical item or a clear photograph, dimensions, required print area, artwork, quantity and intended use. The team can assess the job and determine which available production process is the most suitable fit.

Have an unusual item or print position? Start by showing DSP the physical requirement rather than trying to select the production method yourself. The team can assess the item and available options from there.
