If you're looking for an affordable and versatile labelling solution, specialised paper labels are a smart choice.
Whether you're in retail, food production, office admin, or manufacturing, paper-based labels offer a wide range of finishes and adhesive options to suit your needs.
In this guide, we explain the different types of specialised paper labels, how they’re used across industries, and why Go2Products is a trusted source for quality labels made in the UK.
What Are Specialised Paper Labels?
Specialised paper labels are made from paper stock and enhanced with features like coloured coatings, textured finishes, or permanent/removable adhesives.
They’re ideal for general product labelling, promotional use, or administrative purposes where visual appeal and affordability matter.
These labels are designed to stick securely, print clearly, and support a wide range of applications.
They're especially popular in industries like:
- Retail and eCommerce: for price tags, barcode stickers, and promotional labelling.
- Food and Beverage: for packaging ingredients, batch codes, and branding.
- Logistics and Warehousing: for shelf, bin, and inventory labels.
- Health and Beauty: for ingredient listings on products and sample packaging.
- Education and Events: for temporary signage, name badges, and admin use.

Understanding the Label Types
There isn’t just one kind of paper label…and that’s a good thing! For everyday uses, matt white paper labels are easy to write on and ideal for address or admin labelling.
For a more polished appearance, gloss white labels provide a smooth, professional finish suitable for product packaging.
If colour-coding or promotional eye-catchers are needed, coloured paper labels are perfect. For short-term or temporary use, removable paper labels allow clean removal with no residue. Eco-conscious brands will appreciate our recycled paper labels in multiple sizes or round versions.
And if you're after something bold and premium, check out our metallic paper labels which bring standout appeal to luxury packaging or high-end promotions.
How Businesses Use Paper Labels Every Day
Paper labels are used everywhere, from retail price tags to food packaging and inventory tracking to temporary signage.
In e-commerce, they’re applied to barcodes and parcels. In events, they double as name badges or raffle tags. Our transparent biodegradable labels also offer a sustainable choice for modern businesses.
If your label needs to stand out but still peel away cleanly, try our removable label collection.
