Printable Food Labels
Liyantian’s food grade labels are not only used to display nutrition facts and ingredient information, decorate your food packaging, but also convey key information. Through carefully designed and printed food labels, we can effectively shape the brand image and help increase sales.
Anti-counterfeiting Printing
Liyantian’s food ingredient labels use a variety of advanced anti-counterfeiting technologies to ensure the authenticity and safety of products, helping brands effectively prevent counterfeit and substandard products from entering the market. The following are several commonly used anti-counterfeiting printing technologies:
Barcode anti-counterfeiting technologyLiyantian’s labels are integrated with precise barcodes to facilitate product tracking and inventory management. By scanning the barcode, companies can instantly obtain information such as the product’s production batch and factory date to ensure the transparency of the supply chain. At the same time, consumers can also verify the authenticity of the product through the barcode to increase their sense of security when purchasing.
Scratch-off anti-counterfeiting technologyScratch-off silver technology is incorporated into our label design and is usually used for the protection and promotion of anti-counterfeiting codes. The surface of the label is covered with a layer of silver coating, and consumers can view the hidden unique code by scratching off the coating. This method not only effectively prevents the anti-counterfeiting code from being copied in advance, but also increases the consumer’s interactive experience and effectively enhances brand trust.
3D anti-counterfeiting laser technologyGold stickers are a material with a golden background, shining with a metallic luster, which can give products a luxurious and high-end temperament. They are particularly suitable for occasions that emphasize brand and product grade, such as souvenirs, high-end cosmetics, and alcohol labels. To avoid color deviation, a layer of white ink needs to be added before printing.
VOID label anti-counterfeiting technologyVOID label is an efficient anti-counterfeiting method. Once the label is tried to be torn off, the word “VOID” or other preset text will appear at the bottom, indicating that the label has been destroyed. Such labels can effectively prevent secondary use, ensure the integrity of product packaging, and provide additional security assurance before consumers open the package.
Fragile label anti-counterfeiting technologyOur fragile labels are made of special materials and are designed to break immediately when they are tried to be torn off. The main function of this label is to prevent the packaging from being tampered with or replaced during transportation or sales. Once the label is destroyed, it cannot be restored to its original state, thereby ensuring the safety of the product.

Printing Food Labels
Liyantian food labels use environmentally friendly and non-toxic printing processes to ensure product safety and environmental protection. We will carefully select the most suitable printing equipment and printing methods based on the customer’s design documents, selected materials, specific printing requirements and order quantity. For example, for complex patterns and high-resolution images, we may choose offset printing or digital printing to ensure accurate color reproduction; for large-volume orders, flexographic printing or VSOP technology may be used to improve production efficiency and control costs. Throughout the production process, we are always committed to providing customers with high-quality food labels printing at a reasonable cost that not only meet environmental standards, but also perfectly display brand image and product information.
Lamination Processing
LiYanTian possesses advanced surface finishing technologies, offering clients a variety of surface treatment options, including services for glossy and matte lamination. Beyond the standard glossy and matte effects, we can cater to special requirements with a wider range of unique lamiantion treatments, such as scratch-resistant lamination to enhance product durability and aesthetics, as well as holographic lamination for adding distinctive visual effects. These specialized lamination treatments are designed to meet the needs of various industries and application scenarios, though they require meeting certain minimum order quantities. We are committed to utilizing these high-quality surface treatment technologies to protect our clients’ products while enhancing their competitiveness in the market.
UV and Embossing Processing
To make the key information, LOGO, and brand image on stickers stand out, some clients opt for advanced surface treatments like embossing and Spot UV (Selective UV varnish) on the sticker surface. This approach enhances contrast in both visual and tactile dimensions, making certain areas stand out among a plethora of information, thereby immediately capturing people’s attention and effectively increasing the target audience’s awareness and recall of the brand. The embossing effect adds a three-dimensional aspect to the stickers, while the selective UV varnish gives the surface a unique gloss, further enhancing the sticker’s appeal and the professionalism of the brand image. Such meticulously designed stickers not only significantly boost brand recognition but also deepen the consumers’ impression of the brand, adding an extra layer of allure and persuasiveness to the messages conveyed by the brand.
Die Cut or kiss cut
For different clients and their products, the requirements for packaging labels naturally vary, leading to different needs for die-cut shapes. Some clients might only require basic shapes such as circles, squares, rectangles, or ovals for their labels; however, a significant number of clients seek more personalized and unique die-cut shapes, such as hearts, stars, or even labels that incorporate multiple different shapes within a single design. Faced with these diverse needs, LiYanTian has the technical capability and capacity to precisely meet the custom requirements for various complex and special shapes. Whether it’s simple requests for single shapes or complex designs featuring multiple forms, LiYanTian can provide high-quality solutions, ensuring that every client’s unique needs are satisfactorily met.
