Multi-layer labels are an excellent solution wherever a standard single-layer label simply isn’t enough. Their layered construction makes it possible to place a large amount of content on a limited surface, while still maintaining a clean and elegant look on the packaging. The top layer can be lifted and re-applied, creating additional space for information without changing the size of the container.
Peel-off and multi-layer labels are chosen by brands that need clear, functional, and legally compliant communication on their products. They are especially useful when:
Export-oriented companies often rely on peel-off labels to include several language versions without increasing production costs or creating separate packaging lines.
These labels offer space for:
instructions for use,
ingredient lists and nutritional values,
safety warnings and regulatory content,
dosage tables,
additional marketing or brand storytelling.
Small containers such as cosmetics, supplements, vials, nail polish bottles or travel-size products rarely offer enough room for mandatory text. A peel-off label solves this problem while keeping the packaging visually appealing.
Peel-off labels are widely used in:
cosmetics & personal care,
chemical and household products,
pharmaceuticals & dietary supplements,
food & beverages (recipes, allergen tables),
horticulture and plant protection products,
DIY products, paints and coatings.
To ensure perfect functionality and user experience, several elements must be carefully considered:
selecting the correct label size so the peel-off layer lifts easily,
choosing a material suitable for the packaging’s shape and the application method (manual or automated),
preventing text show-through to maintain clarity,
ensuring high-precision printing and adhesive quality for repeated opening and closing.

If you’re looking to implement peel-off or multi-layer labels in your packaging strategy, we’re here to help you choose the best option.
Peel-off labels are used across many sectors where regulations, limited space or complex product information create the need for additional communication layers. The most common industries include:
Products such as creams, serums, shampoos, color cosmetics or travel-size items often require multi-language descriptions, ingredient lists and usage guidelines. Peel-off labels allow all this information to remain accessible without cluttering the packaging.
Medicines, vitamins, drops, syrups and OTC products frequently require dosage charts, contraindications, warnings and regulatory content that do not fit on a standard label.
Producers use peel-off labels for:
recipes and serving suggestions,
allergen and nutritional tables,
multi-language markets,
promotions or loyalty codes.
The additional layer helps maintain the visual identity of the packaging while meeting legal requirements.
Detergents, disinfectants and industrial cleaning agents often demand extensive safety instructions, hazard symbols, and documentation required by CLP/GHS regulations.
Peel-off labels make it easy to provide step-by-step application instructions, drying times, mixing ratios or safety guidance without increasing packaging size.
Fertilizers, seeds, plant nutrients and crop protection products require detailed directions for use, environmental guidelines and multilingual instructions.
Vials, ampoules, medical devices or vet pharmaceuticals often have extremely limited space for mandatory details — peel-off labels solve this effectively.
Motor oils, additives, industrial lubricants and specialty products frequently contain long safety instructions and technical specifications.
