Put the Warning Where It Cannot Be Missed
A warning label puts a caution where people see it: on cleaning products, as voltage and shock warnings on equipment, as choking hazards on packaging, as handling cautions on shipped boxes and as safety reminders on tools. The artwork usually follows a standard or a regulation, so the label has to print clean, stick where it belongs and stay legible in use. Our guide to caution labels on products covers the layout. Standard warning labels start at $23.88 for a set of 25, from a New York shop printing them since 1999; read more about our label printing in New York City since 1999.
You set the size, pick the material, choose full color or black ink only, and the price updates live as you build. To compare them with our other warning labels, browse every option on warning labels printing, or stay here and build yours from the choices below.
A set of 25 at $23.88 is enough to check a new warning on one machine before a rollout. Labeling every unit in a product line takes hundreds or thousands, and at 300 each label costs about 22 cents. Tap any tier below to see the set total at that count.
What Are Standard Warning Labels
Standard warning labels are printed caution, hazard, and safety labels applied to a product, container, or piece of equipment. They print full 4-color or black ink only, in 50 sizes from a .5" circle up to a 4.625" CD label, on any of 5 materials. Customers order them wherever a message carries real consequences: manufacturers put voltage and caution warnings on electronics, chemical brands add hazard notices to bottles, product makers stick choking-hazard and age warnings on packaging, and shippers use fragile and handling cautions on boxes. If you need the same caution label stepped up a tier, the Premium Warning Labels cover that, and the general Standard Product Labels handle everyday product marking.
What Size Should a Warning Label Be
Choose the size by what the label goes on and how much it has to say. A .5" or 1" circle is the small caution dot you stick on a cable, a bottle cap, or a component. A 2" or 3" size carries a full warning with a symbol and a line of instruction. A 4.625" CD label or a custom 6" x 5" panel gives the notice real presence on a box or a machine. All 50 sizes, both ink options and the full material list are grouped below exactly the way the live configurator presents them, so you know what you can change before you change it.
You can start from a layout or send finished compliance art.
Start from a template or upload your own art
Most warnings follow a set format, so you do not have to design from scratch. Start from one of the label layouts in our sticker and label design templates, then swap in your copy, symbol, and colors in the online editor. If your compliance artwork is already built, skip the editor entirely and upload it as a print-ready file.

How Much Do Standard Warning Labels Cost
Standard warning labels start at $23.88 per set of 25, and the per-label price keeps dropping as the quantity climbs toward 25,000, so the size of the run sets the price per label. A set of 300 runs $65.97, about $0.22 each, and 25,000 labels run $1,255.29, roughly a nickel each. Drag the slider below to set your count and watch both the set total and the true per-label cost update live, then find the point where one more step up barely moves the budget.
Which Material Should You Print On
The material decides how long a warning label lasts. The three paper options, uncoated, semi-gloss and hi-gloss, are the economical pick for indoor labels on packaging and paperwork, with hi-gloss giving a hazard symbol a sharp, saturated look. White vinyl is the pick for labels that get touched, wiped or exposed to moisture, so it suits chemical containers, tools, and equipment. Clear lets the surface show through, which reads clean on a bottle or a device. For ink you pick 4/0 full color when the warning uses red, orange, or yellow hazard cues, or 1/0 black ink only when a crisp black-on-white notice is all you need. If the label has to survive a wet or outdoor life, the Standard Waterproof Labels take durability further.
How Do Standard Warning Labels Compare to Other Labels
This is our lowest priced warning label. If you are also looking at a premium build, a waterproof material or a general product label, the chart below puts the starting price of each next to this one.
How Fast Can You Get Warning Labels
Standard warning labels print on a 3 business day standard turnaround, and when a date sneaks up you can move that to 2-day, Next-Day or even Same-Day production out of the NYC plant. Before it prints, you decide how careful to be: send it straight to production when the file is a known-good repeat, request a free online proof to check placement and color on screen, or order a next-day hardcopy proof when you need to hold the real thing. Same-Day orders need to be approved by the daily cutoff to ship that day, and 99.8% of orders land on time with 82% shipping early.

Standard Warning Labels: Frequently Asked Questions
Can I supply my own warning artwork?
Yes, and that is the usual case. Warning wording and symbols are normally fixed by a standard, a regulator or a manufacturer's own safety sheet, so you supply the file and the label prints it clean at the size you choose. Check the artwork against your source document before approving the proof, because the printed run will match the file exactly.
Should I print in black only or full color?
Both are available. Full color (4/0) is what you want when the notice uses hazard cues, colored bands or a pictogram that carries meaning. Black ink only (1/0) gives a crisp black-on-white notice and is the straightforward pick for text-only cautions.
Which material holds up on equipment or a cleaning product?
There are 5 materials: uncoated, semi-gloss and hi-gloss paper, plus durable white vinyl and see-through clear. White vinyl is the one for machinery, tools and chemical containers, where the label has to stay legible through handling, moisture and cleaning.
What sizes can a warning label be?
Sizes run from a 0.5 inch circle up to a 4.625 inch CD label across 50 options, with a custom size up to 6 inches by 5 inches. Choose the size by the smallest legible type in the notice, not just by the space on the product, since a warning that cannot be read does not do its job.
Is there a minimum order for warning labels?
The minimum is 25 labels at $23.88 for the set. Pricing then runs across 30 quantity tiers all the way to 25,000, so a short run for one piece of equipment and a full production label run both fit the same product.
How fast can warning labels be produced?
Standard turnaround is 3 business days out of the New York City plant, with 2 day, Next Day and Same Day rush when a shipment is being held for the label. Price updates live in the configurator as you set size, material and ink.
