3.5 × 1 in labels

3.5 × 1 in labels measure 89 × 25 mm and give you 3.5 square inches – a slim strip about 3.5 times as long as it is tall. Buyers usually put it on a wrap around the 1 oz dropper bottle (4.1 in round) or a standard 1.25 in shelf-edge channel. That is space for about 5 lines of roughly 56 characters at 8 pt. 1 × 3.5 is simply this size in the other orientation – same die, same price.

What 3.5 × 1 in labels are used for

Full wrap: 1 oz dropper bottle

3.5 in around a 4.1 in body is a near-complete wrap; keep barcodes away from the 0.6 in seam.

Price channel strips

Fits the common 1.25 in shelf molding (0.25 in clearance) with 3.5 in for item name and price.

Main product label

Name, net quantity and maker in 5 lines – the whole front panel on 89 × 25 mm.

Locker and name strips

3.5 in fits a full name at 30 pt for lockers, cubbies and mailboxes.

Artwork advice

Set your canvas to 1088 × 338 px, put a 3.375 × 0.875 in guide inside it, and nothing smaller than 7 pt. Place the barcode at least 0.2 in from either end – on the 1 oz dropper bottle the seam lands there.

Flat surfaces should measure 3.75 × 1.25 in or more. Used as a wrap, 3.5 in covers a bottle of about 1.19 in diameter almost completely.

Area-wise 3.5 × 1 in beats 2.75 × 1.25 in by 2%; 2 × 1.75 in offers another 0%.

Frequently asked

Will a 3.5 × 1 in label fit a 1 oz dropper bottle?

In most cases. Common 1 oz dropper bottles measure near 1.3 in in diameter, so the circumference is 4.1 in, and the straight wall is about 1.75 in tall. This label (3.5 × 1 in) sits within that – still, check your supplier's drawing.

Is there a minimum order for 3.5 × 1 in labels?

Yes, 100 labels; that run is $78.98. At 1,000 you pay $100.20, near $0.100 apiece, and artwork setup adds $45.00 once.

What roll sizes do 3.5 × 1 in labels ship on?

Standard 3″ cores hold up to about 11,500; 1″ cores, for handheld guns, about 3,000. Big orders are split across rolls at no charge.

What file size do 3.5 × 1 in labels need?

Bleed size 3.625 × 1.125 in; at 300 dpi that equals 1,088 × 338 px. PDF, AI, SVG, PNG and JPG all work.
