6.5 inch circle labels

6.5 in circle works out to 165 mm – a little larger than a saucer. Measured against everyday packaging, it suits an 8 × 8 in cake box top (8 × 8 in) and a 2 lb stand-up pouch front (6.75 × 9.5 in). Inside the safe area there is room for about 31 lines of roughly 74 characters at 8 pt, or a full-size UPC-A barcode plus a product name.

Common jobs for 6.5 in circle labels

Leaves 0.75 in at the sides and 0.75 in top and bottom on an 8 × 8 in surface.

On a 2 lb stand-up pouch front

Peel and stick on tables, crates and boards; 165 mm circle reads across a room.

Equipment and asset panels

Machine instructions: 24 lines of 59 characters at 10 pt.

Before you design

Keep text and logos inside a 6.375 in safe area and do not go below 8 pt. Curved edges: text running round a 6.5 in edge reads better than a square block forced into the middle.

Measure first: the lid or panel should be flat over 6.75 × 6.75 in or more – about 171 mm across.

Area-wise 6.5 in circle beats 6 in circle by 17%; 7 in circle offers another 16%. Stepping up to 7 in circle adds about $54.45 per 1,000 labels.
