The label covers about 12.00 sq in (38 × 203 mm) and has room for a full front label with a description, or a back label with ingredients and directions.

Designing a 1.5 × 8 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. A label this big can carry the whole story, but leave white space so the product name still stands out.

What does an order of 1.5 × 8 in rectangle labels cost?+
About $158.92 CAD for 1,000 ($0.159 each) and $128.68 for 250, on matte roll stock. At 5,000 the total is about $379.09, or $0.076 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 1.5 × 8 in rectangle labels fit on one roll?+
We wind rolls to your order. As a guide, a single-lane roll of 1.5 × 8 in rectangle labels on a 3 in core and up to 6 in across holds about 390 to 1,900 labels. The range depends on whether the long or short side runs along the roll, which follows the unwind direction you choose. Larger orders are split over several rolls. If your dispenser or applicator needs a specific core, roll size or count per roll, add a note to your order.
Can I order 8 × 1.5 in instead of 1.5 × 8 in?+
Yes. Enter the width and height the way your artwork reads; 1.5 × 8 and 8 × 1.5 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.
How much cheaper are 1.5 × 8 in rectangle labels in larger runs?+
The price per label falls as quantity goes up: about $0.515 each at 250, $0.159 at 1,000 and $0.076 at 5,000. For bigger runs, choose a custom quantity in the quote builder to see the exact total.
Can I get 1.5 × 8 in labels on sheets instead of rolls?+
No. Switch the label type to Label sheets in the quote builder: 1,000 matte sheet labels are about $153.24 at this size, against $158.92 for rolls.
Will a 1.5 × 8 in label fit my bottle or jar?+
Check the straight wall, not the curved shoulder or base: you need at least 1.5 × 8 in of flat or gently curved surface. Wrapped around a round container, a 8 in length covers one about 2.6 in across, leaving a small gap.
