Labels That Stick Through Grease
In industrial, automotive or food-manufacturing applications where oil, lubricant or grease is present, standard labels won’t cut it. At LabelSwift, we create custom oil-resistant labels engineered to adhere and stay legible even when surfaces are slick. Whether you’re labelling gear, containers, machine parts or food packaging, our labels are designed to stick, resist smearing and keep your brand clear.
Materials That Withstand Slippery Hands
Oil exposure means adhesive breakdown, print smudge and label failure—unless the label is built for the challenge. LabelSwift offers high-performance film substrates like polypropylene BOPP that bond securely to oily, textured or treated surfaces. Designed for rugged conditions, these labels resist peeling, running and fading, ensuring your product info and branding hold up.
Flexible Runs for Tough Applications
You may have multiple SKUs, changing product lines, or short runs for specialty items—but the label’s performance must remain consistent. LabelSwift supports both low-volume and large-scale runs with stored specs, reliable color matching and fast turnarounds. When oil-resistance counts, we make sure your labels perform across every batch.

Frequently Asked Questions About Oil-Resistant Labels
Labels exposed to oils, lubricants, or greasy substances need a durable film material like BOPP and a strong adhesive designed to bond even on slick surfaces. Aside from standard white BOPP, LabelSwift offers metallic and clear BOPP film options. A protective laminate adds another layer of defense, preventing smudging or fading from oil contact while keeping your design crisp and professional. LabelSwift offers gloss, matte, and soft touch laminates that add visual appeal and protection to your label, as well as UV-cured gloss and matte finishes that boast the same aesthetic upgrades as laminates without the added thickness.
