Printed Address Labels

Custom printed address labels provide a quick and professional way to add the same sender or return address to envelopes, parcels and business packaging. Instead of writing or printing your details every time, simply peel a label from the roll and apply it to a clean, dry surface.

Your labels can include a personal or business name, postal address, postcode, telephone number, website and a simple black logo. They are suitable for businesses, online retailers, clubs, charities, schools and everyday personal correspondence.

What can printed address labels be used for?

Personalised address labels are useful for a wide range of postal and packaging applications, including:

• Return addresses on envelopes
• Sender details on parcels
• Business correspondence
• Online shop and marketplace orders
• Invoices and customer documents
• Club, charity and school mailings
• Wedding and event correspondence
• Product and gift packaging
• Storage boxes and office files
• General contact-information labels

Return address labels for envelopes

Place a return address label on the back of an envelope or in the appropriate sender position. If an item cannot be delivered, clear return details help the postal service identify where it should be sent back.

Choose a compact label that fits neatly without interfering with the recipient’s address, postage mark, barcode or other important postal information.

Business address labels for parcels and packaging

Business address labels can include your company name, postal address, website and telephone number. They provide a consistent appearance across customer orders, invoices, samples and general correspondence.

They are particularly useful for small businesses and online sellers that regularly dispatch parcels but do not need individually printed branded packaging.

The same address printed on every label

This product is intended for labels carrying the same sender, return or business address throughout the order. Every label on the roll will be printed with the same approved design.

It is not intended for a mailing list containing a different recipient address on every label. If you require variable address information, please contact us before ordering to discuss whether we can help.

Black printing for clear, readable addresses

Address Labels are produced through our Discount Labels range and printed in black. Strong contrast and uncomplicated typography help names, addresses and postcodes remain clear and easy to read.

A simple black logo can also be included. Full-colour photographs, gradients, white ink and multicoloured logos cannot be reproduced through this product option.

Choosing an address label material

Available paper materials are displayed in the label calculator. Matt white paper provides a straightforward, easy-to-read finish, while gloss white paper has a smoother and brighter appearance.

A biodegradable white paper option may also be available for customers looking for an alternative to conventional paper label materials. Material choices can vary according to the selected size and quantity.

Address labels supplied on rolls

Custom printed address labels are supplied on rolls, making them easy to store, peel and apply. Keep a roll near a packing desk, reception area or office workstation so your return details are always ready to use.

Rolls are suitable for hand application and are particularly convenient when preparing batches of envelopes or customer orders.

Rectangular address label sizes

Address labels are available in a range of preset rectangular sizes, including 37 × 24mm, 49 × 22mm, 51 × 29mm, 62 × 38mm, 74 × 24mm, 76 × 49mm, 89 × 36mm, 90 × 49mm and 102 × 75mm.

Smaller sizes work well for short return addresses, while larger labels provide more room for company details, contact information and a simple logo.

Choosing the right label size

Count the number of address lines required and make sure the selected size gives each line enough room. Avoid making the wording too small simply to fit a long address onto a compact label.

Include the complete postcode and check all names, street details and contact information carefully before approving the artwork.

Applying your address labels

Address labels adhere best to clean, dry and reasonably smooth surfaces such as paper envelopes, cardboard boxes and suitable packaging. Press the label down firmly, paying particular attention to the edges.

Adhesion may vary on dusty recycled cardboard, heavily textured paper, fabric mailing bags and certain plastics. Testing is recommended if your packaging has an unusual surface or coating.

Designed mainly for indoor and postal use

Standard paper address labels are not waterproof. They may be affected by rain, condensation, cleaning products or prolonged exposure to moisture.

For parcels likely to encounter wet outdoor conditions, place the label where it will be protected or contact us about a more durable vinyl alternative.

Preparing your address label design

Enter your wording or upload a simple black logo. Use a clear font with enough spacing between each line and avoid decorative typefaces that make the address difficult to read.

For the best print quality, supply logos as editable vector artwork or a high-resolution black image at 300dpi. Keep all important text and artwork at least 1–2mm inside the finished edge.

Check your spelling, postcode and contact details carefully. StickyLabels prints the address supplied and cannot confirm that postal information is current or correct.
