Steps to Create Customized Warehouse Shelf Labels
Whether you are looking for adhesive shelf labels or magnetic shelf labels, creating and printing custom shelf labels is easy with these steps:
- Find the right size labels for your shelves.
- Determine if you want to use printable adhesive labels or magnetic ones.
- Layout or design the text you'll be printing for your warehouse shelf labels. We recommend sticking with dark colors and thick, bold fonts to make reading your warehouse and shelf signage from afar as easy as possible.
- Use with your standard desktop printer.
- Apply your new warehouse, inventory, or retail shelf labels.
Can't decide what material to use? Adhesive labels are beneficial if your organizational system is unchanging and will need to stay in place for an extended period of time. If that's the case, consider one of our printable waterproof label materials or aggressive materials for durability. If your warehouse environment is ever-changing or not yet solidified, consider our blank magnetic shelf labels or our removable label material. These can be easily repositioned or removed at any time.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What materials are available for shelf labels, and how do I choose the right one for my store?
We offer shelf labels in a variety of 37 label materials to fit different needs. For temporary applications, standard white matte is a great option. If you need something longer-lasting, our weatherproof polyester material is ideal since it resists moisture and smudging.
-
What adhesive types are offered, and which one works best for metal shelving, plastic bins, or painted surfaces?
Our shelf labels have permanent and removable adhesives. Permanent adhesive works well for most flat, smooth surfaces like metal or wood. Removable adhesive is a good choice for plastic bins or surfaces where you may need to move labels around since it peels off cleanly without leaving a residue.
-
How durable are these shelf labels when exposed to moisture, cleaning agents, or frequent handling?
Durability depends on the material you select. Standard white matte labels are great for dry, interior conditions. For exterior conditions, where moisture can be present, a film-based label with a protective laminate or topcoat is recommended, since it can resist smudges and ink fading.
-
How quickly can I get shelf labels? Is same-day shipping available?
Yes, most of our shelf labels ship the same day if ordered before 5 PM EST. This means you can order quickly and start organizing your shelves without delay.
