Halski Studio developed some fun product label printing for a line of natural hand soaps. Better Life, a leader in natural cleaning products, brought so much colour, pop and life to their natural hand soap labels.
We’re digging their all-natural ingredients that are good for the environment and love that the earth friendly focus doesn’t need to stop at what’s inside the bottles. Associated Labels, committed to greener alternatives in printing, offers innovative, sustainable and compostable labels as well as petroleum free corn-based shrink sleeves labels. This means your labels, packaging and products can be good for the earth inside and out.

The wine label printing and packaging design for Two Hoots, a new wine collection, targets a young, fun and care–free audience (20 – 35). For each wine label an owl character has been designed to match the characteristics of the wine, which nicely ties into the tongue in cheek descriptions on the back of each varietal.
The back wine label printing of the Cabernet Rose reads: ‘Like the screeching owl, this cabernet rose has a rather flirtatious character. Fresh peach and pear aromas combine with cheeky cherry flavours to add sweetness to the playful, fruity wine.’ The back wine label of the Cabernet Merlot reads: ‘Robust and vigorous like the spotted owl, this cabernet merlot has a rich plum character. Oak and blackcurrant aromas combine with dark cherry flavours to add luxury to this hearty wine.’

Sequential packaging is a mega-hot design trend popping up on many custom label printing and flexible packaging designs in a variety of consumer markets.
Designers use sequential packaging and numerical systems to help consumers easily distinguish a category of products; having numbers represent a level, system or order within a group of products. Often there is no actual data behind the numbers shown on the package and it simply represents one product within a system of the company’s brand.
Sequential Numbering, on the other hand, can enrich your label printing and flexible packaging design as well as add security to your products, assist in inventory control and traceability. Associated Labels can print a unique number or code on each individual label to suit your specific application.
Beyond sequential numbering, with the help of the Digital Label Printing Division at Associated Labels, your marketing campaign can expand by adding the following elements to your flexible packaging or label printing: variable data, variable image printing, unique 2D barcodes and QR codes.
Contact our sales department to find out how your brand could use sequential numbering and digital label printing to enhance your own product packaging.

The Pantone Color Institute revealed the color of the year for 2012, and it’s Tangerine Tango (Pantone 17-463). From the catwalk to label printing, you can expect Tangerine Tango to be dancing its way onto many products this year as it’ll be the hottest color trend for the upcoming year.
The institute describes the color as: “Sophisticated but at the same time dramatic and seductive, Tangerine Tango is an orange with a lot of depth to it.” The printing possibilities are endless, think wine label printing: pair the seductive sophistication of this color with a textured wine label printing paper, complex label printing shape, or foil stamping and accenting, and you’ve got a trendy poppy wine label in your customers hands.
Maybe you want your digital label printing or flexible packaging to convey a message of fun and warmth – here’s the perfect label printing color: “Tangerine Tango marries the vivaciousness and adrenaline rush of red with the friendliness and warmth of yellow, to form a high-visibility, magnetic hue that emanates heat and energy.”
Whether digital label printing or flipping through a book, we see color in everything. “What starts as a signal passing along the optic nerve quickly develops into an emotional, social, and spatial phenomenon that carries many layers of vivid meaning. Light with a wavelength of 650 nanometers or so is seen as red. But it is experienced as warmth or danger, romance or revolution, heroism or evil, depending on the cultural and personal matrix in which it appears… The context within which color unfurls its rainbow of symbolism and emotion is history itself.”
