Custom Rectangle Labels
Custom rectangle labels printed in landscape wraps or portrait panels to fit dropper bottles, food jars, beverage cans, coffee pouches and shipping boxes.

What are custom rectangle labels?
Custom rectangle labels are four-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive labels where horizontal width and vertical height are sized independently to match the straight wall of a bottle, jar, can, pouch or carton. Because you can stretch width wider than height (landscape orientation) or height taller than width (portrait orientation), rectangular labels serve as the primary workhorse of retail packaging. A wide landscape rectangle wraps 360 degrees around a dropper vial, spice jar, beverage can or supplement bottle so the front brand logo, side ingredient panel and back barcode apply in a single pass. A tall portrait rectangle sits on the front and back faces of wine bottles, lotion pumps, stand-up coffee bags and shipping cartons. At CubitPack, custom rectangle labels start at 500 pieces on rolls, flat sheets or individual pieces, take 10–14 business days (4–5 days rush) with free US shipping, and include a free digital proof and 3D mockup before payment.

Always write rectangular dimensions as Width × Height (W × H) in inches, where Width is horizontal from left to right and Height is vertical from top to bottom. For a full wrap around a round bottle or jar, set Width to π (3.14) × diameter minus ¼ inch, and set Height to the straight vertical wall minus ¼ inch. Whether you are comparing printed rectangular labels, rectangle roll labels, wrap around bottle labels, custom rectangular adhesive labels or rectangular wrap around labels, we size the template to your exact container.
| Label size (W × H) | Shape | Common containers | Best format |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3.75 × 1.75 in | Rectangle (landscape wrap) | 1 oz (30 ml) dropper bottles, essential oil vials, lip balm tubes | Roll |
| 2 × 3.5 in | Rectangle (portrait panel) | 8 oz sauce bottles, cosmetic lotion pumps, spice jars, barcode labels | Roll or sheet |
| 6 × 2.5 in | Rectangle (landscape wrap) | 8 oz mason and honey jars, vitamin and supplement bottles, salsa jars | Roll |
| 3 × 4 in | Rectangle (portrait panel) | 12 oz coffee bags, stand-up pouches, 750 ml wine bottles, candle jars | Roll or sheet |
| 4 × 6 in | Rectangle (portrait panel) | Shipping cartons, kraft mailer boxes, 1 lb pouches, gallon jugs | Roll or sheet |
Suggested label size: 9⅛ × 2¾ in (width × height)

- Enter horizontal Width first, vertical Height secondA 4 × 2 in label is a wide horizontal wrap, while a 2 × 4 in label is a tall vertical panel.
- Measure only the straight vertical cylinder wallStop your ruler before the glass or plastic curves at the top shoulder and bottom heel so edges never pucker.
- Leave a ¼ inch gap on full-wrap rectanglesSubtract ¼ inch from your bottle circumference so slight glass variations never cause the ends to overlap.
- Divide full wraps into three visual zonesGive the center 35% of width to your front brand face, left 32.5% to nutrition, and right 32.5% to barcode.
- Use 1/16 in rounded corners for clean roll peelingStandard 1/16 inch rounded corners prevent wrap ends from catching on dividers or tearing during dispensing.
- Tape a paper strip around your filled containerCut a paper rectangle at 100% scale and wrap it onto your bottle or pouch to verify seam gap.

What are the most common custom rectangle label mistakes?
Rectangular labels cover more container surface than any other shape, so small errors in wall height, wrap length or W × H order show up right away. Avoid these five mistakes. When specifying front and back panel rectangle labels, nutrition panel rectangle stickers, custom width and height rectangle labels, bottle and box rectangular labels and corner radius rectangle roll labels, avoid these common production mistakes
- Swapping Width and Height when ordering rolls (writing 2 × 6 in instead of 6 × 2 in), which rotates the label 90 degrees on the roll.
- Sizing a full wrap to the exact bottle circumference with zero gap, causing the ends to overlap and lift on slightly narrower glass.
- Measuring vertical height over the curved bottle shoulder or bottom heel instead of stopping at the straight cylinder wall.
- Spreading the front logo across 50% of a wrap label's width so the edges disappear around the curved sides of the jar.
- Printing a horizontal picket-fence barcode around a skinny 1 oz dropper vial where cylinder curvature distorts laser scanner angles.

A US business you can checkRectangle labels questions
Does width or height come first when ordering custom rectangle labels?
Always write Width first and Height second (W × H in inches). Width is horizontal from left to right as you read the label on the container, and Height is vertical from top to bottom. Thus 6 × 2 inches is a wide wrap and 2 × 6 inches is a tall vertical strip.
How do I calculate the width of a full-wrap rectangle label for a round bottle?
Measure the bottle's diameter across the base, multiply by 3.14 (π) for the circumference, and subtract ¼ inch (0.25 in). That ¼ inch gap prevents the ends of the wrap from overlapping if glass diameters vary between batches.
Should I choose a single full-wrap rectangle or separate front and back rectangles?
Choose a single full-wrap landscape rectangle for the fastest application (one peel per bottle) and maximum space for nutrition facts. Choose separate front and back portrait rectangles when you want clear glass showing along the sides.
How do I divide a full-wrap rectangle label into front, left and right panels?
Divide your total wrap width into three zones: give the center 35% to your main front brand face, the left 32.5% to nutrition or supplement facts, and the right 32.5% to directions and the UPC barcode.
Why does swapping Width and Height matter when ordering roll rectangle labels?
On a roll, swapping 3 × 4 inches with 4 × 3 inches rotates the label 90 degrees relative to the roll feed direction. If you use a labeling machine or dispenser, note your unwind direction and core size in the quote notes.
Should custom rectangle labels have rounded corners or sharp 90-degree corners?
We recommend our standard 1/16 inch (0.0625 in) rounded corners for rectangular roll labels and bottle wraps. Slightly rounded corners strip cleanly on press and keep wrap ends from catching. Sharp 90-degree corners are available on request.
What size rectangle label fits a 1 oz (30 ml) dropper bottle vs a 12 oz coffee bag?
A standard 1 oz (30 ml) glass dropper bottle typically takes a 3.75 × 1.75 inch landscape wrap rectangle. A standard 12 oz stand-up coffee bag or pouch typically takes a 3 × 4 inch portrait rectangle on the front and back.
Do custom fractional rectangle dimensions cost extra for cutting dies?
No. CubitPack never charges cutting die or printing plate fees. You can order any exact fractional Width × Height (such as 5.875 × 2.125 inches for a custom jar wrap) at the same price as a standard size.
Can I combine several flavors or scents of the same rectangle size in one order?
Yes. Select 2 designs or 3+ designs in Step 2 of the quote form and list the quantity per flavor or scent in the notes. Keeping the same Width × Height, material and finish across all SKUs lets us quote the set together.
What is the minimum order quantity and turnaround time for custom rectangle labels?
Our minimum order is 500 rectangle labels, with trial runs considered case by case. Production takes 10–14 business days after proof approval and payment, or 4–5 business days with rush service, and US shipping is free.
