Not quite right? Compare rectangle labels one step smaller: 1.75 × 4 in, 1 × 7 in and one step larger: 2 × 3.75 in, 1.5 × 5 in, or browse all label sizes.
Designing a 2.5 × 3 in rectangle label
Leave the right edge clear if the label wraps a bottle, so the overlap or gap does not cut through text. There is room for hierarchy here: one large element, one medium line and small supporting text.

Common
questions.
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.
How much do 2.5 × 3 in rectangle labels cost?+
About $139.61 CAD for 1,000 ($0.140 each) and $128.97 for 250, on matte roll stock. At 5,000 the total is about $286.74, or $0.057 per label. These are approximate prices from our live price list as of October 6, 2026; the quote builder shows your exact price, including standard shipping, before you add to cart.
How many 2.5 × 3 in rectangle labels fit on one roll?+
Typically about 1,000 to 1,200 per roll, based on one lane of labels on a 3 in core wound up to 6 in across. The range depends on whether the long or short side runs along the roll, which follows the unwind direction you choose. Bigger orders ship on more than one roll, and you can ask for a set count per roll in your order notes.
Is 2.5 × 3 in the same as 3 × 2.5 in?+
Yes. Enter the width and height the way your artwork reads; 2.5 × 3 and 3 × 2.5 in are the same price. For rolls, also pick the unwind direction so labels come off the roll the right way up for your product or applicator.
What is 2.5 × 3 in in millimetres?+
2.5 × 3 in is about 64 × 76 mm. You can switch the quote builder to centimetres and enter the size in cm if your packaging is specified in metric.
Is there a minimum order?+
Quantities start at 100 labels and every order has a $50 minimum. At this size 100 labels already come to about $118.27, so the minimum does not change your price; most of a small order is the fixed set-up part, which is why the price per label drops quickly as you order more.
How do I check that a 2.5 × 3 in label fits my container?+
Measure the flat or straight part of the container. The label needs a panel at least 2.5 in by 3 in, with a little margin. If you want it to wrap all the way around, the long side (3 in) covers a round container of about 1.0 in diameter with a small gap.
