Question
What paper should I use for water bottle labels?
Answer
Standard paper stocks, including 100# gloss text, are not built for labels that get submerged or sit in constant contact with water. Paper wicks moisture and breaks down, so the label wrinkles, discolors, or peels. Water bottle labels need a water-resistant material instead.
- Avoid plain paper and gloss text for wet applications
- Choose a waterproof film such as BOPP or vinyl
- Add lamination for extra protection against condensation
- Discuss waterproof material options with the team during your quote request
