2.5 × 8 in rectangle labels

Choose 2.5 × 8 in when you need an extra-large slim strip; it works well for candle jar wraparounds and soap bars and belly bands. That is about 7% more label area than the 2.5 × 7.5 in rectangle. The label covers about 20.00 sq in (64 × 203 mm) and has room for a full panel with directions, nutrition facts or a long ingredient list plus a barcode.

Designing a 2.5 × 8 in rectangle label
Leave the right edge clear if the label wraps a bottle, so the overlap or gap does not cut through text. Large labels are easy to overfill; group information into blocks and keep the brand clear from a distance.

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 are 1,000 2.5 × 8 in rectangle labels?+
On matte rolls, 250 labels are about $130.80 CAD, 1,000 about $207.34 and 5,000 about $573.07 ($0.115 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.
How many labels per roll for 2.5 × 8 in rectangle labels?+
Rolls are wound to order, so the count can be adjusted. Our guide figure is about 390 to 1,200 labels per single-lane roll, assuming a 3 in core and a roll 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. Tell us in the order notes if your applicator needs something different.
Will a 2.5 × 8 in label fit my bottle or jar?+
Measure the flat or straight part of the container. The label needs a panel at least 2.5 in by 8 in, with a little margin. If you want it to wrap all the way around, the long side (8 in) covers a round container of about 2.6 in diameter with a small gap.
What is 2.5 × 8 in in millimetres?+
2.5 × 8 in is about 64 × 203 mm. You can switch the quote builder to centimetres and enter the size in cm if your packaging is specified in metric.
Can I order 8 × 2.5 in instead of 2.5 × 8 in?+
Yes. Enter the width and height the way your artwork reads; 2.5 × 8 and 8 × 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.
Which material should I choose for 2.5 × 8 in rectangle labels?+
Matte BOPP is our default (about $207.34 for 1,000 at this size). Glossy is about $219.78, clear about $236.37 and freezer grade about $252.96 for the same 1,000. All of them are waterproof; choose freezer grade for cold or frozen products and clear for a no-label look.
