How To Choose Labels For Essence Oil Vials

In recent years, with the expansion of the essential oil market, most of the refined oil bottles on the market are similar in terms of the appearance and size of the glass bottles. As a result, it has become a difficult problem to make your company and products stand out among the many similar products.

The label is an important part of making the product stand out on the display rack. A professional quality and durable label will complement your essential oil products and catch people’s eyes.

This article will be used to help you learn how to choose the right label for your essential oils. It will detail what size, shape, and material we think is best, as well as tips for using essential oil labels.

How to determine the label size

The most popular type of bottle label is one that wraps around the entire bottle. All product information will be written on the label, including but not limited to, company name, product name, product ingredients, capacity, efficacy, life, precautions, etc. Then wrap it around the bottle. For these labels, you first need to determine the size of the container by measuring the circumference. There are 2 ways to do this.

  • You can use a soft paper measuring stick (if you don’t have one nearby, find an example diagram on the web page, print out the paper first, then cut out the ruler), and to measure the circumference of the bottle, wrap the ruler around the bottle and mark where it overlaps.
  • Alternatively, you can wrap a piece of tissue paper or string around the bottle, mark the overlap with a pen, and measure the distance with a regular ruler. We recommend that you add a little extra length to your measurements so that the labels you choose overlap and stick together.

Next, determine the height of the label, if you are using a 5 to 10 ml bottle of refined oil, we recommend using a higher label and setting the text horizontally so that you have enough space to display all the product information you need.

Once you have these sizes, please visit the “CONTACT US” section of our website to contact us and we will provide a variety of designs for your reference based on your label size.

If your bottle has a flat lid, then we would recommend that you consider adding a circular label to identify the product or have your logo on it. A half-inch round label will fit well on most standard essential oil bottle caps.

How to choose label materials?

Labels are made from a variety of materials. Coated paper, double adhesive paper, kraft paper, pp material. PVC, etc. Choosing materials is a relatively simple and easy decision. You can choose according to your needs for the product. Considering that for essential oil packaging, labels may exist in a wet environment with oil leakage and exposure, we suggest using waterproof, oil-proof, heat-resistant, and cold-resistant materials to make labels.

Labels of different materials will give you different appearances and feelings of your essential oil, such as the label made of transparent PVC. First of all, this label is waterproof and oil-proof, and the transparent material also makes the appearance of the fine oil bottle look more natural. The transparent self-adhesive will inspire people the illusion that the printing of the design is all on the glass bottle without the label.

The label of laser material can not only be waterproof and oil-proof but also reflect colorful colors in the light, which will make your product more attractive than other products on the exhibition shelf.

When considering what materials to use, also consider the type of bottle you use and make sure your label design complements it. For example, our clear gloss label may not be the best choice for a blue or amber glass bottle unless your design stands out against a darker background.

How to use labels?

When preparing to label the bottle, we first need to make sure that the bottle has been thoroughly cleaned and dried, because an unclean bottle will make the bottle uneven after labeling, and the wet bottle will make the label less sticky, which greatly reduces the service life of the label. Make sure there is no dirt, dirt, water or grease under the label.

For a round container like a fine oil bottle, start in the middle of the label and work your way down the sides for the straightest result. When labeling, try to use the top or bottom of the bottle as a reference. The idea is to mimic that straight line so that your label will be straight.

Another good technique for applying labels is to use one product as your example and set the standard when you apply the label to other bottles. This will help you maintain consistency across all your products.

Whether you’re ready to tag products for your essential oil business or just create personalized labels for gifts, we hope these tips will help you get started creating professional-looking essential oil labels.
