Label Printing Services Built for Growing Brands
In competitive markets, a label does more than identify a product—it communicates quality, builds trust, and sets the tone before the package is ever opened. At Direct Edge, we print custom labels designed to stand out on shelf and hold up in the real world. Powered by our Durst TAU 340 digital label press, we deliver precision, speed, and consistency across every run.
Our digital roll-to-roll workflow merges the flexibility of digital printing with the reliability of flexographic processes, allowing us to produce vibrant, high-resolution labels up to 13.75” wide at speeds up to 177 feet per minute. The result: exceptional color accuracy, sharp detail, and repeatable quality—whether you’re running short batches, multiple SKUs, or variable data.
From wine and spirits to nutraceuticals, cosmetics, food, and beverage, our label program is built for demanding environments and fast-moving brands. With competitive pricing and turnaround times as quick as 5–7 days after proof approval, we help get products to market without compromising quality.
Label Finishes Designed for Performance and Shelf Impact
Our in-house finishing capabilities allow us to tailor each label to its application, aesthetic, and performance requirements. Below are four of our most requested label styles—with custom stocks available upon request.
Clear Labels
Clean, modern, and shelf-forward, clear labels create a “no-label” look that lets the product shine through. Ideal for beverages, personal care, and premium packaging, these labels demand tight registration and flawless ink laydown—something our Durst-driven workflow delivers with ease. The result is crisp graphics, smooth gradients, and a seamless integration with the container.
Chrome Labels
Chrome labels bring instant impact. Using metallic stocks and specialty finishing, these labels reflect light and attention, making them perfect for limited releases, high-end spirits, and bold brand statements. Our digital process ensures consistent coverage and sharp contrast, even on highly reflective substrates.
Matte Labels
Understated and refined, matte labels offer a soft, non-glare finish that feels premium and intentional. They’re a popular choice for craft beverages, cosmetics, and wellness brands looking for a sophisticated, modern aesthetic. Printed digitally, matte labels retain depth and color accuracy without sacrificing detail.
Soft Touch Labels
For brands that want packaging you can feel, soft touch labels deliver a velvety, tactile experience that elevates the unboxing moment. Combined with high-resolution printing and optional embellishments like cold foil, soft touch finishes create a luxury look that performs just as well as it feels.
Made to Last. Designed to Stand Out.
Beyond aesthetics, our labels are engineered to endure. We offer solutions for waterproof, high-temperature, outdoor, and high-abrasion environments, ensuring your product looks as good in use as it does on shelf. Variable data printing, consistent color matching, and scalable production make Direct Edge a reliable partner for both emerging brands and national rollouts.

With the Durst TAU 340 at the core of our label operation, we deliver speed without shortcuts—and quality without compromise.
