Custom Pressure-Sensitive Labels

Manufacturing labels since 1986
We're Certified Labeling Solutions, a custom label manufacturer in Hillsborough, New Jersey. We've printed pressure-sensitive labels and tags here since 1986. We run Nilpeter flexographic presses up to seven colors and 16-inch webs, alongside digital and specialty printing, so we can make anything from a short specialty run to millions of labels. We match your Pantone colors, verify every barcode to ANSI/ISO with inline video inspection, and print GS1-compliant and variable data.
Our in-house die library holds thousands of shapes, from 0.25″ × 0.25″ up to 16″ × 24″, so standard sizes usually skip the tooling charge. We print on nearly 100% domestic materials, and a standard order is ready about two weeks after you approve the artwork, with rush jobs and reorders faster. We're also an authorized Zebra® and Datamax® dealer, so we can supply the printers, ribbons, and software that run your labels too. You'll work with one person who knows your account. We serve New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania with quick regional delivery, and we ship nationwide.

03 — CAPABILITIES
Bring us the label and we'll make it run right. Since 1986, out of our Hillsborough, NJ plant, we've printed for 500+ companies — from a single-color shipping label to a full-color product wrap on paper, BOPP, PET, or foil. We catch what derails a run — a bad bleed, a barcode that won't grade, the wrong adhesive for a −40°F freezer surface — before it costs you a reprint.
Up to six PMS-matched spot colors plus 4-color process, UV-cured on press with electronic registration that holds color job to job. We keep a die library of thousands of shapes — from a quarter-inch dot to a 16-by-24-inch wrap — so most jobs skip the tooling wait, and every barcode is ANSI/ISO verified before it ships.
Nearly 100% of our substrates, adhesives, and inks are domestically sourced, with buffer stock on the shelf — so your run doesn't wait on an import container. Standard turnaround is about two weeks from artwork approval (reorders often a week or less); rush is available when a deadline can't move.
Rolls, sheets, fanfold, and cut singles — pressure-sensitive, thermal-transfer, or direct-thermal, die-cut to any shape.
Up to six PMS-matched spot colors plus 4-color process, UV-cured on press, with electronic registration holding color job to job.
Matte, gloss, and soft-touch overlamination, UV varnishes, backside printing, and protective coatings rated 3–5 years outdoors.
UPC/EAN, GS1-128, SSCC-18, GS1 DataMatrix, and QR — ANSI/ISO verified on every job, 100% inline verification on serialized runs.
Authorized Zebra® and Datamax® dealer — wax, wax-resin, and resin ribbons matched to your stock, from one vendor.
Label sizes from 0.25" × 0.25" up to 16" × 24" on paper, BOPP, PET, polyimide, and specialty stock — most shapes skip the tooling charge.
About two weeks from artwork approval (plates included); reorders often a week or less; NJ/NY/PA delivery in 1–2 business days.
