More space without a larger label

Multilayer labels: booklet and peel-off labels
Several printed layers on the area of one label, for translations, directions for use, hazard information and promotions.
Benefits for your application
The key selection benefits at a glance.
Front for the brand
The outer layer shows product and brand, mandatory text sits in order on the inner pages.
The right construction
Booklet, peel-off, coupon or resealable layer, depending on how often and why the layer is opened.
On rolls for the applicator
Multilayer labels are supplied on rolls like single-layer labels and applied by machine.
Product
Multilayer labels from Hummel Print
Multilayer labels consist of a base that stays on the product and one or more printed layers on top. The layer is opened, peeled off or pressed back down. This lets multilingual text, instructions and warnings fit on a small container, while the front belongs to the brand.
- Printing: flexo printing with up to eight colours in one pass, double-sided too, plus digital printing for many language and variety versions
- Converting: collating and laminating the layers, kiss-cutting and through-cutting, adhesive-free zones for the grip tab
- Data: batch, numbers and codes as variable printing, outside or on an inner page
- Supply: on rolls for labelling machine and dispenser
- In-house prepress that also typesets long multilingual texts ready for print
Constructions
Which construction fits?
Booklet label
A small booklet on the label that opens and closes again. Typical for many languages and long directions for use.
Peel-off and double-layer label
A second layer that is opened or peeled off and reveals an additional printed inner side.
Coupon label
A layer that the customer peels off and takes away, for example as a voucher or prize code. The base with product information stays on the pack.
Resealable layer
A layer that can be opened and pressed back down many times. More on the resealable labels page.
Applications
What are multilayer labels used for?
For hazardous substances, the CLP Regulation explicitly permits fold-out labels when the information in all languages would otherwise not fit on the container.
- Agrochemicals and crop protection: directions, dosage and hazard information under CLP and GHS, often in several languages
- Chemical and technical products: safety information for several countries on one jerrycan or bottle
- Pharma, medical and animal health: for example investigational products for clinical trials, veterinary medicines or contact lens care solutions
- Cosmetics: INCI list and translations on small containers, see cosmetics labels
- Food supplements: recommended intake and mandatory notices, see supplement labels
- Food: ingredients and allergens in many languages, see food labels
Selection guide
Which construction solves which task?
| Goal | Construction | What to watch |
|---|---|---|
| Many languages | booklet label | number of pages, thickness and legibility of type |
| One additional information area | peel-off or double-layer label | opening and what stays on the base |
| Removable voucher | coupon label | release and code area |
| Repeated opening | resealable layer | tab and number of openings |
| Small or round container | compact build | radius and stiffness of the layers |
| Automatic labelling | dispensable roll build | thickness, running direction and machine |
Design
Planning opening and content from the user's view
A visible grip tab and a clear notice show where the layer opens. The base carries everything that has to stay on the product after opening or peeling. Additional layers change thickness and stiffness; on small radii and during dispensing, forces differ from those on a single-layer label. A sample on the original container shows whether opening and processing work together. For numbers and codes across several layers, the variable printing page offers more guidance.
