If you’re running a business in Dubai, you know how important first impressions are. And labels? They’re often the first thing your customer sees. Whether it’s a luxury product, a skincare item, a food jar, or a shipping box, your label needs to do more than just “stick”; it needs to sell.
This blog is your go-to guide for label printing in Dubai, whether you’re looking for premium packaging, event branding, or bulk logistics labeling.
Dubai’s diverse business ecosystem calls for a wide variety of labels. Some of the most in-demand include:
Product Labels: For bottles, boxes, jars, and pouches.
QR Labels: For retail and inventory tracking.
Promotional Stickers: For events, exhibitions, and sales.
Security Labels: Tamper-evident and void labels.
Luxury Foiled Labels: For cosmetics, perfumes, and chocolates.
Whether you’re printing for F&B, pharma, fashion, or corporate giveaways, Dubai’s printing presses (like Veesham) offer customized solutions to match.
How to Choose the Right Material for Durability & Appeal
The material of your label can affect everything—cost, look, and longevity.
Paper Labels:
Cost-effective
Ideal for indoor products
Easily writable
Best for wine bottles, food packaging, dry goods
Synthetic Labels (like PP, PE, or PET):
Water and tear-resistant
Ideal for cosmetics, oils, refrigerated goods
More durable and glossy
Suitable for outdoor or moisture-prone environments
Specialty Materials Available in Dubai:
Kraft paper for a rustic look
Transparent labels for a no-label effect
Metallic papers for high-end luxury feel
Finishing Options That Elevate Your Brand
Labels in Dubai are often not just functional—they are a part of the brand experience. Here are some finishing options to make your labels stand out:
Foil Stamping: Add gold, silver, or rose gold foil for a luxe effect.
Spot UV: Highlight logos or text with gloss on matte.
Embossing/Debossing: Add texture and tactile feel.
Die-Cutting: Custom shapes that match your packaging or logo.
At Veesham, we help you pick the right combination to suit your packaging and budget.
How to Pick the Right Adhesive Type
Different labels need different types of sticking power.
Permanent Adhesive: Strong and long-lasting; ideal for product labeling.
Removable Adhesive: Peels off without residue; great for promotions or retail.
Freezer-Grade Adhesive: Made to withstand cold and moisture; ideal for F&B or pharma.
We always recommend testing a sample before finalizing bulk production.
Common Label Printing Mistakes to Avoid
Using low-resolution designs: Leads to blurry prints
Ignoring environmental exposure: Moisture and heat can ruin poor-quality labels
Not matching label size with packaging: Leads to peeling or misalignment
Over-designing: Cluttered labels confuse buyers
Our designers at Veesham help fix these issues before they ever reach print.
