Choose an A4 label that suits your printer, packaging and expected exposure to water. Compare white polyester, clear laser polyester and clear inkjet polyester before deciding what to order.
For a laser printer, choose white or clear laser-compatible polyester. For an inkjet printer, choose our clear inkjet-compatible polyester. All three are synthetic film label materials, but their print coatings are not interchangeable.
Choose your print method before ordering. Each product page shows the available sizes, pack quantities and current pricing.
An opaque white background gives text, colours and barcodes a consistent base, including on coloured packaging. Choose this when readability and a white label finish are the priority.
Let the container show through with a gloss transparent label. Choose the laser-compatible stock if you print with toner and want a clear background on your packaging.
Choose this coated transparent polyester for a compatible inkjet printer. Test your printed design for drying, smudging and the moisture exposure it will face.
Clear inkjet sheets are made to order, with dispatch within 3 working days and free delivery on every order. Check the white and clear laser product pages for their current availability and delivery options.

A label that works on a dry indoor container may face different demands on a chilled bottle or a product handled with wet hands. Describe the real use when choosing the specification.
Get advice for your applicationWhite polyester gives the artwork a consistent background. It can be useful for small text, barcodes and designs applied to dark or strongly coloured packaging.
Measure the usable area and check your final print at its actual size. Keep important information clear of the label edge.
View white polyester laser labels →Transparent polyester lets the container show through for a “no-label” appearance. Printed colours can look different against glass, contents or dark packaging.
Most standard desktop inkjet and laser printers do not print white ink or toner. White areas are normally unprinted and remain clear. Test the design against the finished product.
Ask about white ink on custom-printed rolls →Use only stock specified for your printer type and follow the printer’s label-media guidance. Select the exact A4 template, print at 100% or Actual Size and check alignment on plain paper first.
For inkjet stock, allow the printed image to dry fully before handling or testing. For laser stock, check toner adhesion and follow the equipment’s guidance for handling freshly printed sheets.
Find your label template →Apply the label to a clean, dry sample of the container. Follow the material guidance for application conditions and allow the adhesive to develop its bond before testing exposure.
Check edges, legibility and adhesion after realistic use. If you need performance in a freezer, dishwasher, chemical environment or prolonged outdoor exposure, ask for the exact specification first.
Read the materials guide →Print your own labels, have us print the artwork, or ask for a roll specification matched to your printer and application.
