What is a trade customer?

We mainly supply labels to other label producers, commercial printers and print management companies who are looking for a quality trade label manufacturer. Our practise is not to work with brands or end users directly.

Professional label printer

Baker Labels has been established for 50 years and has become the leading trade label printer in the UK. We are a family business with a family ethos at the centre of how we operate. We pride ourselves on being forward-thinking, well-respected innovators, consistently growing and investing in the latest print technologies.

Our customers expect us to produce labels and packaging of excellent quality with fast turnarounds. We strive to go beyond expectations. Our aim is to never say no to an enquiry, therefore many label printers come to us when they don’t have the equipment or capabilities to complete a job. We solve customers’ problems for them quickly and to a very high standard.

We can create stunning labels in different materials, including sustainable labels, waterproof labels, metallic labels or foil labels. You can order any size or quantity, with bespoke finishing to add to the consumer experience.

Pharmaceuticals

Pharmaceutical labeling requirements are stricter than those for other products. In fact, pharmaceutical products require extra steps administered to ensure consumers get the right information. The label must remain in place on the container and be legible across its lifespan, including distribution, storage and use.

This will mean producing labels that have strong adhesive strength and are resistant to a number of extreme environments including water, UV light and cryogenic temperatures.

We can provide accurate serial numbering, barcoding and tamper evidence mechanisms to labels.

Barcode labels

Bar Code and Asset Labelling

Bar codes are almost standard on most product labels. QR codes and bar codes can be created in-house. Standard static codes plus full variable, consecutive and random are all possible.

Asset labels can be personalised with business or organisations name, logo and sequential numbering/barcode and then applied to your property, equipment or fixed assets.

HP Smartstream Mosaic and Collage

Similar to variable data printing, but on a whole new level. Rather than using a database to swap out variable text and images, HP Smartstream Mosaic and Collage transforms artwork randomly. The result? Every single label can be unique. Using one or many vector PDF files or “seed files”, the software generates a large number of file variations by scaling, rotating, and transposing the images. This creates variable image assets which are then printed on one of our HP Indigo digital presses.
