Here’s how to have your roll labels printed: choose the shape and format, select the material, upload your print data, complete your order and receive your delivery. You can view the price in real time at any stage.
Step 1: Choose the format
In the Label Configurator, specify the shape (rectangular with rounded corners or round) and the size. The label size can be freely defined between 20 and 313 mm to suit your product or packaging.
Step 2: Choose the material and finish
Select the label material (various papers and films), the colour scheme (black or CMYK colour) and, if required, a finish such as a protective varnish or laminating film for greater smudge and scratch resistance. Specify the winding direction and run direction, as well as the roll core diameter, to suit your labelling process. As soon as you enter the total quantity and number of print designs (variants), the configurator will display the price in real time.
Step 3: Upload print data
Add your configuration to the basket and proceed to the order summary. There, upload your print data as a PDF in CMYK. We will check your data using the free BASIC print data check; with the PREMIUM data check (subject to a charge), we will correct it where technically possible and send you a print-ready PDF.
Step 4: Complete your order
Log in to your customer account or register as a new customer. In the order summary, specify the quantity per print design/variety, change the winding direction for each variety if necessary, and submit your order. Multiple varieties in the same format can be combined into a single order.
Step 5: Check and delivery
Our pre-press specialists will check your print data. If any corrections are required, we will contact you.
Please note the requirements for print data transmission
We will then produce your custom-printed roll labels – ready for dispatch within 10 working days of receiving the correct print data. We offer free delivery within the EU.
Ordering printed roll labels online: print them yourself or have them printed?
Roll labels are self-adhesive labels supplied on a roll, ideal for use with labelling machines and manual dispensers, and of course they can also be applied by hand. They are used for product, packaging and dispatch labelling, for example as product labels for bottles, jars and tins, as well as for cosmetics and food packaging, as information labels or as dispatch labels on boxes.
For individual labels to print yourself at home or in the office, blank labels on A4 sheets and the HERMA Label Assistant are ideal. When it comes to professionally printed roll labels in small to medium commercial print runs, the Label Configurator is the right solution: you upload your print data, and HERMA takes care of the printing, a free print data check and dispatch.
Frequently asked questions about the Label Configurator
Information on label material for digitally printed labels on a roll
Which label material is right for your application? Here’s a quick guide – you’ll find the detailed material specifications directly below:
- Paper: for dry indoor applications, e.g. product labels on cardboard boxes, glass and packaging bags. A finish can be selected for additional abrasion protection.
- PE and PP film (white or transparent): for damp environments, outdoor applications and curved or flexible packaging, such as for personal care and cosmetic products. Transparent film creates a ‘no-label look’.
- PE PaperPrint: combines the high-quality print appearance of paper with the durability of film – ideal for robust labels with intricate designs, on rough, damp or cool surfaces; seawater-resistant to BS5609
- Thermal paper: when colour-printed labels are additionally printed with variable data using thermal printing, e.g. dispatch labels with a coloured logo.
What level of adhesion do you require?
Depending on the material, different adhesion properties are available in the configurator:
- Permanent adhesion: the standard for permanent product and packaging labelling.
- Strong adhesion: very high initial adhesion; adheres even to plastic and packaging films, as well as in cold and damp environments.
- Extremely strong adhesion (PE PaperPrint): for rough, cold or damp surfaces such as cardboard boxes, barrels or ampoules.
- Removable: can be removed without leaving any residue, e.g. for temporary labelling.
Your customised digitally printed roll labels are made from high-quality label papers and films that are produced in our own adhesive material production facility.

Information on finishing for your digitally printed roll labels
The finishing of the printed labels on the roll - with protective varnish or laminating film - ensures that the printed image is particularly smudge-proof and scratch-resistant.
The Label Configurator offers a choice of four finishes:
- Protective varnish glossy: a glossy protective varnish that increases the print’s scratch and smudge resistance. Cannot be printed on subsequently using thermal transfer printing.
- Protective varnish matt, thermal transfer printable: a matt protective varnish that increases the print’s scratch and smudge resistance. Can be printed on subsequently using thermal transfer printing.
- Laminating film matt: transparent, matt polypropylene film (13 μm). Provides additional protection against moisture and abrasion. Can be printed on subsequently using thermal transfer printing.
- Laminating film glossy: clear, glossy polypropylene film (20 μm). Provides additional protection against moisture and abrasion. Cannot be printed on subsequently using thermal transfer printing.
Subsequent printing of information on the label roll: When using ‘Protective varnish matt, thermal transfer printable’ or ‘Laminating film matt’, the printed labels on roll can be subsequently printed using thermal transfer printing, e.g. with BBD, lot number and other production-relevant information.
If you have any questions about whether additional finishing is advisable for your digitally printed labels and which finishing is the right one for your application, please contact us - we will be happy to advise you. Contact us
Discover more about the production process for your customised roll labels in digital printing
At HERMA, we use HP Indigo printing systems (inkjet printing) for digital printing of roll labels.
This digital printing system impresses with its outstanding print results and consistently high print quality. For both paper labels in digital printing and film labels in digital printing.
At HERMA, digitally printed labels on a roll are produced in several batches side by side - this enables us to produce your printed labels on a roll particularly economically and offer you attractive prices.
- Winding direction and feed direction: The winding direction determines whether the labels are wound on the inside or outside of the roll (inward or outward winding) and in which orientation they are dispensed from the carrier tape, for example, header-first or tail-first. This is crucial for the correct labelling of your product or packaging. Select the winding direction to suit your labelling process. An incorrect winding direction can lead to dispensing errors and production waste. If you are labelling manually, use the default setting ‘Outside winding, right-leading’ in the configurator.
- Roll core (core diameter): In the Label Configurator, you can choose between four core diameters: 25, 40, 50 and 76.2 mm. 76.2 mm (3 inches) is the default setting and is standard in the industry for automatic labelling machines; the smaller diameters of 25, 40 and 50 mm are more suitable for manual dispensers and smaller systems. Please also specify the maximum outer roll diameter that your labelling system can handle to ensure that everything runs smoothly during dispensing.
If you need label materials or print runs that are not available in the Label Configurator, simply get in touch with us.
Have labels on rolls printed: We also produce special shapes, additional perforations and personalised digitally printed labels, e.g. with consecutive barcodes, on the high-performance digital printing machines in our label production facility.
