Prices and roll counts on this page are estimates. The quote builder gives your exact price before checkout, and every order starts with a free proof.
On matte rolls, 250 labels are about $129.14 CAD, 1,000 about $173.39 and 5,000 about $445.30 ($0.089 each). Prices are approximate, taken from our live price list on October 6, 2026. Enter your quantity in the quote builder for the exact total with standard shipping included.
Typically about 770 to 820 per roll, based on one lane of labels on a 3 in core wound up to 6 in across. Where you land in that range depends on the unwind direction: the long side running along the roll gives fewer labels per roll. Bigger orders ship on more than one roll, and you can ask for a set count per roll in your order notes.
It is the same label turned 90 degrees, and the price is identical. Type the size the way your artwork reads (portrait or landscape), then choose the unwind direction that suits how you apply the labels.
Check the straight wall, not the curved shoulder or base: you need at least 3.75 × 4 in of flat or gently curved surface. Wrapped around a round container, a 4 in length covers one about 1.3 in across, leaving a small gap.
Four stocks are available: matte (about $173.39 per 1,000 here), glossy ($183.80), clear ($197.67) and freezer grade ($211.54). Pick glossy for brighter colour, clear for glass and clear plastic, and freezer grade for anything stored cold.
