Labl.it, label printers for UK commercial kitchens

Labl.it is a British company specialising in food label printers for commercial kitchens. Its approach focuses on replacing handwritten labelling with a system that prints EHO preparation labels and Natasha's Law-compliant labels, as well as enabling expiry date tracking. The company presents itself as the UK's leading supplier of food label printers and claims to have more than 4,000 business users.

Efficiency and error reduction in the kitchen

According to the company's own data, the system prints labels three times faster than handwriting and reduces errors fivefold compared with handwritten labels. Printing takes seconds, which reduces administrative tasks and staff interruptions. Features described include three-click printing from pre-saved options and batch printing of multiple products in a single operation. The company maintains that monthly costs are lower than those of manual labelling.

How it works and interactive demo

The website includes an interactive demo that replicates the three-step printing process, selecting categories such as dairy and specific products such as brie. The company also offers an indicative savings calculator: for a kitchen with 26 chefs, it estimates typical savings of 78 hours per month.

TempLog® add-ons

Labl.it announces the launch of add-ons under the TempLog® brand, scheduled for early 2027. These add-ons are aimed at supporting compliance and record keeping without adding complexity, helping teams capture reliable, traceable data to keep commercial kitchens audit-ready.
