How to Choose a Label Printing Company for Custom Packaging Labels and Booklet Labels
The right label printer depends on how much information your pack must carry, what surface the label sits on, and which materials and finishing the product needs. Tenovis d.o.o. which trades as TenovisLabels in Maribor, Slovenia, prints self-adhesive labels, packaging labels, booklet labels and peel-off labels, and chooses printing and finishing technology from your dimensions and requirements.
What should you look for in a label printer?
Look for a printer whose range matches your pack format, whose materials suit your product and its regulatory needs, and who chooses printing and finishing technology from your actual specification. Dimensions, the volume of information on the label, and your environmental goals narrow the shortlist quickly.
A label is the most important external element of a package. It separates your product from competing products, carries your trademark, and shapes the final appearance of the pack. That is why the printer's range matters as much as its price. Here is how our label types map to common packaging jobs.
| Label type | What it does | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| Self-adhesive labels | Our most extensive product range; works as a marketing tool and information carrier | Branded products across industries |
| Packaging labels | Placed over the entire packaging surface, giving a large area for product information | Filling plants, food producers and other industries |
| Booklet labels | Open to reveal multi-layered pages | Usage instructions, safety warnings, extended product details |
| Peel-off (multi-layer) labels | Fit a large amount of information into limited space | Pharmaceutical products with multilingual instructions |
When does a booklet label make sense?
A booklet label makes sense when a product needs more information than a flat sticker can hold, such as usage instructions or safety warnings. The label opens to reveal multi-layered pages, so the pack keeps a small footprint while the instructions stay attached to the product.
Our booklet labels combine the function of a standard sticker with the extra space of a brochure. Packs that carry extensive instructions suit them well.
Regulators already accept this approach in some sectors. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency reports that pesticide directions for use may appear in an accompanying booklet under 40 CFR 156.10(i)(1)(ii), at the agency's discretion. Rules differ by product and market, so confirm your own labelling requirements before you finalise a design.
Peel-off labels solve a related problem. In the pharmaceutical industry, strict regulations and the need for precise usage instructions mean a single peel-off label can hold multilingual instructions and regulatory information.
Packaging labels for food producers and filling plants
Our packaging labels are made for filling plants, food producers and other industries. They cover the entire packaging surface, which gives you a large area for the product information your pack must show.
For narrower brand-led jobs, our self-adhesive labels are the range we produce most widely. We also print IML labels, and you can read about them on our IML labels page.
A typical scenario: a food producer needs one pack format sold across several markets. The label has to hold ingredient lists, handling instructions and brand design on a single surface. A wrap-around packaging label or a peel-off format is the usual place to start, and the right choice follows from your pack dimensions and the information you must show.
Eco-friendly label materials
We are a printing house committed to sustainable packaging solutions. For fruit and vegetables packed in nets, quality and the environment both matter. Our eco-friendly solutions are a complete alternative to synthetic paper and deliver high-quality printing.
If you plan to make environmental claims on your own packaging, check the rules in your market. The Federal Trade Commission's Green Guides, published in October 2012, advise qualifying recyclable claims when appropriate recycling facilities are not available to at least 60% of consumers or communities where the product is sold. Tell us your target markets when you brief us on materials.
What does Tenovis need to quote custom packaging labels?
We need the parameters that decide which printing and finishing technology suits your job, starting with the label dimensions. Our label questionnaire collects those details, and it is the route to an offer from our team for custom packaging labels and booklet labels alike.
Our questionnaire exists because technology choice depends on the specification. Have these ready:
- Label dimensions
- The product and surface the label will sit on
- How much information the label must carry, including languages
- Your finishing and material preferences, including any eco-friendly requirements
You can reach us through our contact page, by email at info@tenovislabels.com, or by phone on +386 2 461 22 60. Our certificates are listed on our certificates page, and our news page carries company updates.
Frequently asked questions
Can one label carry instructions in several languages?
Yes. Multi-layer peel-off labels suit products that need a large amount of information in limited space. In pharmaceuticals, a single peel-off label can hold multilingual instructions together with regulatory information, so the pack stays compact while every required language remains attached to the product.
Do you print labels for fruit and vegetable nets?
Yes. For produce packed in nets, we prioritise both print quality and the environment. Our eco-friendly solutions are a complete alternative to synthetic paper, giving you high-quality printing while supporting more sustainable packaging.
