Label size finder for jars, bottles, tins & boxes

Measure your container — or pick a common one — and get the recommended label width and height, wrap length, and the nearest standard die sizes that avoid a custom-die charge.

Label size finder
Recommended label size
8.14" × 1.75"
width × height — leaves ¼" clear above and below the straight wall
Circumference
8.64"
π × diameter — a label wider than this needs overlap
Nearest stock sizes
8×2 · 5×3 · 6×2
standard dies — no custom die charge

Tapered containers: measure the diameter at the top and bottom of the label area; if they differ by more than 1/8", use a shorter label or ask us about a contour (curved) die. Squeeze bottles and pouches: keep the label 3/8" from any seam or curve.

Designers & agencies: put this calculator on your own site — free, always up to date.
