Pack Expo 2026 wraps up this week in Chicago. If you’re walking the show floor, take these three questions with you:

• Where can material be reduced without compromising label performance?
• How are suppliers preparing for growing 2D code demand ahead of GS1 Sunrise 2027?
• What does short-run flexibility, and a realistic turnaround, look like in practice?

The answers matter when you’re choosing materials, planning codes, and setting expectations for your next label run. These are the same practical questions we work through with customers every week. Flexible Label Group brings Over 75 years experience to helping businesses find the right label solutions for their needs.

Short runs and long runs are two different printing problems, and they rarely want the same process.

On a short run, the setup cost dominates: plates, make-ready, and press time you pay for before a single label ships. Digital skips most of that, which is why it makes sense for a first production run, a seasonal flavor, a regional version, or a handful of SKUs that each need to look right without a full inventory commitment.

On a long run, the economics flip. Once volume is high enough to absorb setup, traditional flexographic printing becomes the efficient choice: faster on press, lower cost per label, and consistent across large quantities.

We run both, so the recommendation follows your run length, artwork, and material rather than the process we happen to favor.

An unreadable barcode can turn a routine scan into a warehouse bottleneck.

Common causes include poor print contrast, an improper ribbon-to-facestock match, and wrinkles or distortion across the barcode. The result: repeated scan attempts, manual data entry, relabeling, line delays, and distribution slowdowns.

Barcode readability starts with the right material and printing process. With 75 years of experience in material selection and precision printing, Flexible Label Group can help match your application with the right thermal transfer materials, facestock, ribbon, and adhesive.

Paper has limits. If your product faces moisture, refrigeration, condensation, oil, or everyday handling, it may be time to upgrade to film.

BOPP, PE, and PET labels offer durable, professional performance for applications where paper may wrinkle, absorb moisture, or lose its finish. The right substrate can help your labels stay sharp, secure, and ready for the real world.

Flexible Label Group brings over 75 years experience helping brands choose the right label material, adhesive, and finish for their products.

Labels lifting on small containers? That’s flagging.

It happens when material memory overpowers the adhesive. Labels naturally want to return to their flat state. On tight curves, that memory pulls against the adhesive. If the bond isn't engineered for that tension, the label peels.

Flexible Label Group has over 75 years experience. We match face stock, liners, and high-tack adhesives to your container's specific diameter and surface energy.

Ensure your labels stay secure. Contact us for a material audit to find the right fix.

Testing a custom label's stickiness immediately after application is a rookie mistake. With Over 75 years experience in material science at Flexible Label Group, we know that pressure-sensitive adhesives need time to achieve full bond strength. The adhesive wet out process requires a proper 24-hour curing window to truly anchor into the substrate's surface pores and achieve maximum tack. If you test peel strength too early, you are measuring initial grab, not permanent performance. Whether you are running high-speed automated application lines or manual labeling, choosing the right adhesive for your specific container material makes all the difference. Contact Flexible Label Group today to consult with our experts on application speed, adhesive selection, and packaging automation.

Sometimes the best label is the one you can’t see.

With over 75 years of expertise, Flexible Label Group (FLG) knows that achieving this "barely there" look requires more than just clear film. It is about the perfect marriage of substrate and adhesive to eliminate cloudiness, frosting, or bubbling. The result? A professional finish that looks like your branding was printed directly onto the glass or plastic.

Whether you are launching a premium craft spirit or a boutique skincare line, our team provides the expert guidance needed to choose materials that last and look flawless.

Ready to elevate your packaging with a sophisticated, transparent finish? Let’s find the right material for your vision.
