Common applications
Where 6.5 × 12 in rectangle labels work well.
Window, door and display stickers
Logos, opening hours and promotions on doors, windows and display cases; waterproof BOPP stands up to cleaning.
Bulk bags and sacks
Feed, soil, coffee and flour bags need a large label with the product, weight and batch.
Menus, price boards and display signs
Large labels turn boards, menus and display stands into printed signs without a separate print shop.
Pails, buckets and large tubs
1 to 5 gallon pails and large tubs need a big front or lid label with the product name, contents and handling notes.
These are typical uses, not requirements. Measure your container first; the FAQ below shows how.

6.5 × 12 in is a sign-size tall rectangle, sized for jobs like pallet and master-carton labels and window, door and display stickers. It has roughly 8% more space than a 6 × 12 in rectangle. The label covers about 78.00 sq in (165 × 305 mm) and has room for sign-style artwork: big graphics readable from across a room, or a full sheet of instructions, specs or a diagram.

Designing a 6.5 × 12 in rectangle label
Decide on portrait or landscape first; the quote builder prices both the same, and the unwind direction sets how the roll comes off. Design at full size and check it from a few steps back: headline text should be large enough to read at a distance, and images need enough resolution for the print size (about 300 dpi at final size).

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.
What does an order of 6.5 × 12 in rectangle labels cost?+
Expect roughly $476.43 CAD for 1,000 matte roll labels at this size, which works out to $0.476 per label; 250 come to about $192.99. The table above lists more quantities. Your exact price, with standard shipping, appears in the quote builder as soon as you set the quantity.
How many 6.5 × 12 in labels come on a roll?+
Typically about 260 to 480 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.
Which material should I choose for 6.5 × 12 in rectangle labels?+
Four stocks are available: matte (about $476.43 per 1,000 here), glossy ($505.01), clear ($543.13) and freezer grade ($581.24). Pick glossy for brighter colour, clear for glass and clear plastic, and freezer grade for anything stored cold.
Is 6.5 × 12 in the same as 12 × 6.5 in?+
Yes. Enter the width and height the way your artwork reads; 6.5 × 12 and 12 × 6.5 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 6.5 × 12 in in millimetres?+
About 165 × 305 mm. If your packaging drawings are metric, switch the quote builder to CM and type the size directly.
How much text fits on a 6.5 × 12 in label?+
At about 78.00 sq in, think sign-style artwork: big graphics readable from across a room, or a full sheet of instructions, specs or a diagram. A good rule of thumb is to keep text about 1/16 in (1.5 mm) inside the cut line and run backgrounds past the edge.
