What Are Two-Sided (Double-Sided) Labels?
A two-sided label prints artwork and information on both sides—ideal for clear packaging such as glass bottles, plastic containers, and cosmetic vials. Typically made from clear PP or PET, they use digital or offset printing to present crisp details visible from both directions. These labels resist moisture, abrasion, and many chemicals, and adhere strongly to glass and plastic. Production requires precise, mirrored design for both faces, high-quality printing, permanent or removable adhesive, and accurate laser die-cutting. They’re perfect for brands that need to communicate more within limited space. At Nami Naghsh, we produce premium two-sided labels with full customization.

Two-Sided Labels vs. Other Types
Compared with paper, vinyl, PE, and glossy paper, two-sided labels are unique. Paper is inexpensive but cannot present content on both sides. Vinyl and PE are tough and flexible but typically used single-sided. Glossy paper is great for impact but isn’t designed for see-through containers. Two-sided labels enable doubled content on clear packaging—ideal when you need instructions, branding, and promotions in limited space. The table below details the differences:
| Feature | Two-Sided Label | Paper labels | Vinyl labels | Polyethylene labels | Glossy label |
|---|
| Double-sided printing | Very high | No | No | No | No |
| Moisture resistance | High | Low | Very high | Very high | Light moisture |
| Durability | High | Low | Very high | High | Moderate |
| Cost | Medium to high | Low | Medium to high | Cost-effective | Cost-effective |
| Primary application | Clear packaging | Dry environments | Packaging, industry | Flexible packaging | Eye-Catching Packaging |
Why Choose Two-Sided Labels?
They let you print twice the information—ingredients, instructions, logos, and offers—within the same footprint. Durable against moisture and chemicals, with high print clarity for food, beauty, and pharma. The professional look and complex artwork options stand out on shelf.
