How do I measure the size of labels or stickers required for a particular product?


Have your ruler or measuring tape at the ready! We will need to know the width and height your want for your stickers in millimetres. Here's a friendly guide on how to measure your product for labels: Measuring Square or Rectangular Products (such as shipping or mailing boxes) Find the widest point: Measure the longest side of your product. This will be the width of your label. Find the tallest point: Measure the height of your product from top to bottom. This will be the height of your label. Measuring Round Products (such as cans or bottles): Wrap it up: Wrap a flexible measuring tape around the part of the bottle which you want the label to cover. Read the measurement: If you want the label to wrap around the bottle then read the measurement at this point. Otherwise estimate how far around the bottle you want the label to go and read the measurement at that end point. Measure the height: Measure the height of the area of the bottle you want the label to cover from top to bottom. This will be the height of the label.
