5.5 inch circle labels

A 5.5 in circle label is 140 mm, a little smaller than a saucer. Measured against everyday packaging, it suits a 6 × 9 in bubble mailer (6 × 9 in) and a 9 × 6 in mailer box top (9 × 6 in). Expect about 26 lines of roughly 62 characters at 8 pt, and a full-size UPC-A barcode if you need one.

Good uses for the 5.5 in circle size

On a 6 × 9 in bubble mailer

Covers roughly 43% of that 6 × 9 in area – branded without hiding the pack.

9 × 6 in mailer box top label

Leaves 1.75 in at the sides and 0.25 in top and bottom on a 9 × 6 in surface.

Before you design

Design to 1688 × 1688 px at 300 dpi, keep important type inside 5.375 in, and use 8 pt as the smallest size. Curved edges: text running round a 5.5 in edge reads better than a square block forced into the middle.

Measure first: the lid or panel should be flat over 5.75 × 5.75 in or more – about 146 mm across.

Over 5 in circle, 5.5 in circle offers 21% extra label area, while the next size, 6 in circle, is 19% roomier. Moving up to 6 in circle costs about $101.23 more per 1,000.
