Product Overview

About Custom Shipping Labels

High-performance custom shipping labels designed to secure to outer shipping cartons, mailers, and postal packaging. Engineered with high-tack adhesives to prevent peeling during harsh transit conditions, these labels function as both reliable address carriers and high-impact branding surfaces. Perfect for direct thermal or thermal transfer overprinting of on-demand carrier routing and barcode data.

Cubit custom shipping labels balance reliable package routing with professional outer-box branding. Engineered as multi-layer, pressure-sensitive laminates, these labels are built to withstand friction, temperature shifts, and moisture during carrier transit. The specialized adhesives are calibrated to hold fast on both single-wall and double-wall corrugated fiberboard, avoiding common issues like flagging, curling, or tearing.

For high-volume e-commerce brands, these labels offer a highly practical way to brand generic packaging without the upfront cost of custom-printed shipping boxes. They work with industry-standard thermal desktop printers, allowing you to print clean barcodes and variable shipping data over your pre-printed brand frames.

Whether you need natural kraft paper for an eco-conscious look or heavy-duty synthetic film for international freight, our selection of technical stocks fits any shipping volume. They are supplied on standard rolls or space-saving fanfold stacks to work easily with your current packaging line setup.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Custom Shipping Labels. Can't find the answer you're looking for? Chat with our AI consultant.

Yes. Our custom labels are designed with standard inner cores and roll diameters, making them fully compatible with standard direct thermal and thermal transfer printers from brands like Rollo, Zebra, Dymo, and Brother. Ensure you select the Direct Thermal paper option if your printer does not use ribbons.

Direct thermal labels utilize heat-sensitive paper and do not require ribbons or ink, which is ideal for fast, standard parcel shipments. Thermal transfer labels require a carbon ribbon to print. This method produces much crisper, high-contrast black prints that withstand extreme heat, friction, and long storage times.

Our standard paper labels are splash-resistant, but they will degrade if soaked. If you need complete water, chemical, or oil resistance, we recommend our BOPP Polypropylene material. This synthetic film does not tear or absorb water, keeping address data legible in harsh shipping environments.

Our minimum order quantity (MOQ) for custom shipping labels starts at 5,000 units (with baseline pricing from $0.04/unit depending on size, material, and print specs). Digital printing supports low-minimum runs with zero plate fees, while offset, flexographic, and rotogravure production unlock steep volume discounts at 1,000, 5,000, 10,000, and 25,000+ units.

Our FSC-Certified Recycled Kraft Paper labels feature a biodegradable, non-toxic acrylic adhesive that can be processed directly in standard paper recycling streams along with the corrugated box. Our synthetic BOPP labels must be removed from cardboard boxes before recycling.

Yes. Recycled corrugated cardboard can sometimes have a fibrous, dusty surface that causes cheap stickers to peel. Our labels use a heavy-coat, high-tack emulsion acrylic adhesive formulated specifically to anchor to porous, high-recycled-content shipping containers.
