Label Every Jar in the Batch, Not Just the First One
Roll canning labels suit small-batch canners and co-packers who label a whole run in one sitting. The labels come on one continuous roll, so you peel one, press it onto a jar of jam or a can of cold brew, and reach for the next. We print them in-house for jars, cans and bottles from $322.98 per 100.
The waterproof films survive the condensation, refrigeration and water bath that ruin a plain paper label, so your artwork stays crisp from the pantry shelf to the fridge door. To compare the roll with the sheet options, browse the full range on canning labels printing, or build your roll from the choices below.
A roll carries a setup cost, so quantity is where you save. One hundred labels cost $322.98, and 500 cost the same total, so a full roll costs you nothing extra per label. Tap a tier below to see the live total and what each step up saves.
What are roll canning labels
These are pressure-sensitive labels on a continuous roll, sized for canning jars, cans and bottles. We print them in-house on 5 materials, in 102 preset sizes from a 1 inch square up to a 5 by 7 inch oval, wound on a 3 inch core so they feed cleanly by hand or through a labeling machine.
Home preservers, sauce makers, breweries and packaging lines order them to get the same clean look on every unit. The roll keeps a batch moving, the waterproof films survive the moisture of canning, and the die-cut shape fits a lid, a body panel or a wide-mouth jar.
What sizes and shapes do roll canning labels come in
Roll canning labels come in 102 preset sizes, from a 1 inch square up to a 5 by 7 inch oval, with a default of 1 by 1 inch. You can also order a custom size up to 7 by 12 inches, and finish each label with 1/8 inch rounded corners or a straight cut.
Size the label to the container. A small square or round suits a jar lid or a spice tin, a taller rectangle wraps the body of a mason jar or a bottle, and the 5 by 7 inch oval fits a large preserve jar with room for ingredients and a batch number; for more oval sizes on their own page, see our roll oval labels. Rounded corners resist peeling on a curved surface, and a straight cut reads clean on flat panels. For a round lid or a wide-mouth jar, Roll Jar Labels share the same roll format in shapes built for jars.
Two choices make the biggest difference on a canning label.
Reach for a waterproof film
If the jar ever meets water, pick a film. Waterproof white BOPP is the standard choice for canning: it holds up to condensation, refrigeration and a water bath without curling or smearing. Clear BOPP gives a no-label look, with glass and product showing through. Add gloss or matte and silk lamination on top to seal the print against scuffs and moisture.
Design it without a designer
Start from a layout in our label design templates and fill in the product name, the ingredient line and a batch number in the online editor. Leave space for a handwritten date if you date each batch.
If your art is ready, download the blank roll canning label template for your size. We build it at the real trim size with the bleed and safe margin drawn in, so the ingredient line stays clear of the cut. Drop your art in and upload.
Wally waterproofs your canning labels
Why a roll of BOPP film survives the fridge, the freezer, and the water bath.
Roll canning labels start at $322.98 per 100 and print on waterproof BOPP film that shrugs off condensation, a water bath, and freezer time. Pick a size for your jar, choose gloss or matte lamination, and Wally winds them on a 3 inch core ready for your applicator.
Press-Ready Blank Templates
What materials and finishes can you choose
You choose from 5 materials: white gloss for indoor use, waterproof white BOPP and clear BOPP films rated for indoor and outdoor, bright shiny silver metallic foil, and textured 70lb eggshell felt. Seal the print with gloss or matte and silk lamination.
Waterproof white BOPP survives condensation, refrigeration and a water bath, and clear BOPP gives a no-label look on glass. The 70lb eggshell felt reads handmade, right for a farmers-market preserve, but keep it to dry, indoor jars. Bright silver metallic foil suits a gift set or a limited batch. Gloss lamination makes color pop and adds scuff resistance, and matte and silk lamination give a soft finish that still shields the ink.

How do roll canning labels ship and apply
We wind every roll on a standard 3 inch core, and you choose the unwind position so labels dispense the way your hand or applicator needs. Standard production is 6 business days, and you can approve a free online proof before the roll prints.
Set the unwind position before you load an applicator: top or bottom of the copy first decides whether the label lands upright on the jar. For hand application, peel labels straight off the core. Before anything prints, choose the free online proof to check your artwork, trim, and text, or send it straight to production when you already trust the file. You upload your design as a print-ready PDF, JPG, or PNG.
How do roll canning labels compare to other canning labels
You have three canning label formats, and the right one depends on how you apply. Pick roll canning labels for a full production run or a labeling machine, where the continuous roll and unwind control keep the line moving. Take Standard Canning Labels on sheets to hand-apply a smaller batch at a lower entry price, or Premium Canning Labels for a heavier sheet feel. The chart below lines up the starting price of each.
How fast can you get roll canning labels
Roll canning labels print on a standard 6 business day turnaround, counted from the moment you approve your proof. Choose the free online proof to review your artwork and trim before the press runs, or send the file straight to production when it is ready to go. Either way you know the schedule up front, so you can plan a bottling day or a market date around a delivery you can count on.

Roll Canning Labels: Frequently Asked Questions
Will the label hold up to a water bath and refrigeration?
Choose one of the waterproof films. White BOPP and clear BOPP are the options built for that, and they keep artwork crisp where a plain paper label would soften or curl. White gloss, bright silver metallic foil, and 70lb eggshell felt are also available for jars that stay dry on a pantry shelf.
Are these practical for a small batch?
The minimum is 100 labels at $322.98. Roll printing carries a setup cost, so a very small batch pays a high price per label while the value shows up as the run grows toward 25,000, where the per-label price slides toward $0.07.
What sizes fit a standard jam jar?
There are 102 preset sizes, from a 1 inch square up to a 5 by 7 inch oval, plus custom sizing up to 7 by 12 inches. Measure the flat area of the jar body between the shoulder and the base, then pick a size that sits inside it with room to spare.
Can I get a matte finish rather than a shine?
Yes. Lamination is optional in gloss or in matte and silk, and the eggshell felt stock gives a textured, uncoated look on its own. Matte is the usual pick for a homemade, small-batch presentation.
How are the rolls wound?
Every roll is wound on a 3 inch core with the unwind direction you choose, and labels are cut with 1/8 inch rounded or straight-cut corners. Rounded corners resist lifting on a curved jar.
How long does production take and can I check the label first?
Standard turnaround is 6 business days, plus shipping. A free online proof is available before printing, which is the moment to confirm ingredient text and batch or date fields read correctly at final size.
