High-Gloss Label Finish
Glossy label laminates offer professional-grade looks to product labels.
Shiny Labels to Help Your Products Fly off the Shelf
Have you noticed how high-quality retail labels tend to shine? That's accomplished with high-gloss laminates. These semi-reflective finishes are the best way to add shine and durability to product labels. Gloss finish is available on many of our materials including paper, film, and clear. Combine a gloss finish with a matte paper label for affordable durability or apply it to a clear label to achieve a "no-label look."
UV coatings are also available with glossy finishes. These coatings protect your prints further with fade resistance and outdoor durability. Ask your sales rep about specialty UV coatings to determine if it's the right choice for your application.

High gloss helps product packaging look bright, polished, and professional. The reflective coating enhances colors, improves contrast, and helps designs stand out on store shelves.

Are high gloss labels waterproof or moisture-resistant?
Glossy finishes offer some moisture resistance, while film materials such as BOPP or polyester labels provide stronger resistance to water, refrigeration, and condensation.

When should you choose a high gloss label instead of a matte label?
If your label design relies on bold colors or imagery, a glossy finish can help highlight those details. Choose a high gloss when you want vibrant colors, sharp graphics, or a polished finish.
