2.5 × 2.5 in square labels

A 2.5 inch square gives you about 56% more space than a 2 inch square without stepping up to a large label. It is a good middle ground for products that need a logo and a short product name on the same face.

What 2.5 × 2.5 in labels are used for

Candle tin lids

Fits the lid of many 4 oz and 6 oz candle tins with room for scent name and burn time.

Bakery box closures

Seals the front flap of a cake or cookie box and doubles as branding.

Wide-mouth jar lids

Covers much of a 86 mm wide-mouth lid for preserves and bulk goods.

Product name stickers

Small producers use one design and swap the flavour line per batch.

Artwork advice

If the lid is curved at the edge, measure only the flat top; a 2.5 inch square that hangs over a rounded rim will lift at the corners.

Flat use: 2.75 × 2.75 in of face. Wrap use: about 0.88 in across or more, with 2.5 in going round.

Compared with 2.25 × 2.25 in, 2.5 × 2.5 in has 23% more room, and the next step, 2.75 × 2.75 in, adds 21%. Going one size bigger costs roughly $9.83 more per thousand.

Common questions

Will a 2.5 inch square fit my jar lid?

Measure the flat part of the lid. A 2.5 inch (63.5 mm) square needs a flat area of at least about 64 mm across; on 70 mm regular lids a 2 inch square or 2.5 inch circle is often the safer choice.

What is the price of 2.5 × 2.5 in labels?

Today's engine price: 100 roll labels $139.68, 1,000 labels $168.67, roughly $0.169 apiece. Setup is $45.00 per artwork.

How many 2.5 × 2.5 in labels fit on one roll?

Up to about 4,900 on a 3″ core or 1,300 on a 1″ core. Fewer per roll costs the same.

How do I avoid blurry 2.5 × 2.5 in labels?

Send at least 788 × 788 px for raster art – 300 dpi across the 2.625 × 2.625 in bleed area – or a vector PDF.
