Labels Tough Enough for Fish, Shellfish & Cold Storage
Seafood packaging is one of the toughest label use-cases: cold chain environments, ice, moisture, freezers, and constant handling. To keep your labels looking clean and readable, use waterproof substrates like BOPP. Waterproof or moisture-resistant films prevent smearing and peeling even when exposed to melting ice or condensation.
Aside from standard white BOPP, LabelSwift also offers transparent clear BOPP film and eye-catching metallic BOPP film. Coated freezer paper with a protective gloss, matte, or soft touch laminate offers the same moisture and freezer protection as BOPP with the natural feel of paper.
Adhesives & Finishes That Match Your Product Conditions
Because seafood labels are often applied to plastic trays, vacuum-sealed packs, cans, or glass jars, the right adhesive is crucial. Cold-temperature tack adhesives help maintain adhesion during freezing and thawing. Smooth film finishes or gloss coatings shed moisture better and resist staining, while matte or soft finishes offer less glare and can be safer for environments where labels might get wet or handled frequently.
Format & Custom Options to Suit Your Packaging Style
Whether your seafood comes in clam shell trays, wrapped fillets, hanging packets, or cans, you have options that preserve your design. Optional enhancements like tamper-evident seals or date/lot code printing are available—all while matching your supplied artwork.
