Flexi Labels

At its Peterborough facility, Flexi Labels makes self-adhesive labels for businesses that need to mark packaging, prepare shipments, or finish a product. Its catalog serves small brands and makers as well as retailers and higher-volume companies. Since 2012, the company has expanded its materials and formats so an order can start with a few sheets and grow into repeat roll production.

The first choice is format. Options include A4, A5, A3, and SRA3 sheets, continuous rolls, integrated labels for documents, and individual or die-cut pieces. Each product can be configured by size, shape, quantity, finish, and adhesive. That range lets customers find a label for an office printer, a roll dispenser, or a packaging application instead of adapting the job to one standard size.

Materials include paper and films such as polyester and polypropylene, along with matte, gloss, metallic, and colored finishes. Adhesives can be permanent or removable, and the catalog includes options for freezer labels and water resistance. Printer compatibility matters: direct thermal stock behaves differently from material designed for thermal transfer, laser, or inkjet printing. The catalog and its guides let customers filter by printer, surface, and use.

Customers who already have a design can choose plain labels or submit a file for printing. For a custom order, the form asks for shape, dimensions, color, adhesive, appearance, label type, finish, and quantity; customers can also upload artwork and explain the project. The company offers an online designer, downloadable templates, and a proofing step to check files before production.

The range covers more than shipping. Flexi Labels highlights applications in food and beverages, cosmetics and personal care, candles and jars, administration, pharmaceuticals, construction, and safety labeling. Preprinted labels and die-cut stickers extend the catalog to signage, promotions, windows, walls, and floors. Customers still comparing materials can request free samples of up to three options before placing an order.

Production takes place at the company’s UK warehouse. Flexi Labels says it checks files during prepress, prepares proofs for color adjustments, and monitors production and finishing. That process matters for branded labels: a shift in color, cut, or size can change how packaging looks on a shelf. The company also offers discreet or unbranded packaging for orders shipped directly to an end customer.

The company reports more than 20,000 customers across the UK and Europe and over 12 million labels printed and supplied each month; these are figures Flexi Labels publishes to describe its scale. On waste, it says it recycles 100% of its label offcuts and holds Zero to Landfill accreditation. Peterborough brings production, design, and customer support together, while the online catalog lets customers configure orders from across the country.

Flexi Labels is located at Units 7–10 Newark East, Newark Road, in Fengate, Peterborough. The company handles product questions, artwork, and quotes by phone, email, and online form. Its support hours are shown in the practical information; for a specialized request, the quote form lets customers specify material, format, and quantity before confirming an order.
