In the highly competitive world of meat packaging, whether animal-based or plant-based, labels play a critical role in both compliance and consumer appeal. They must not only meet stringent food labeling regulations but also perform reliably in cold, damp, or frozen environments while still representing your brand beautifully.
At SixB Labels, we’ve been perfecting the art and science of food packaging labels since 1979. From custom freezer labels to high-performance barcodes, our team understands the specific demands of meat labeling and delivers solutions that are both functional and visually appealing.

Built for Tough Environments: Freezer-Grade Labels
Meat and alternative protein packaging often face extreme conditions, cold temperatures, condensation, and moisture. Labels must stay firmly in place and maintain legibility from the production line to the consumer’s kitchen.
That’s why we offer specialized freezer adhesives that ensure lasting adhesion and print quality even under freezing or humid storage conditions. These materials prevent peeling, smudging, or curling, keeping your brand presentation intact through every stage of distribution.
Popular Materials for Meat Packaging Labels
Selecting the right material is essential for both performance and aesthetics. Our most popular options include:
- Clear, White & Silver BOPP (Polypropylene) – Resistant to moisture, tearing, and temperature changes; ideal for refrigerated or frozen packaging.
- Hi-Gloss & Semi-Gloss Paper – Perfect for premium meat and deli packaging, offering a polished appearance.
We also supply a wide range of adhesive formulations and substrates tailored to each product’s packaging surface, whether it’s plastic, film, or vacuum-sealed wrap.

Beyond Meat: Spice and Seasoning Labels
Many of our meat industry partners also produce seasonings, sauces, and marinades. 
At SixB Labels, we extend the same precision and quality to spice labels, ensuring brand consistency across your entire product line. Whether you’re labeling ground spices, dry rubs, or sauces, we provide materials that resist oil, moisture, and heat for long-lasting presentation.
Compliance and Clarity: The Essentials of Food Labeling
Every meat label must adhere to strict USDA and FDA regulations, including nutritional information, ingredients, and traceability through barcodes or QR codes. Our team helps clients design compliant label layouts that balance regulatory requirements with strong visual branding.
We also assist with barcode generation and printing, ensuring accurate data for supply chain management, retail scanning, and inventory control.
The Future of Meat Packaging Labels
As the market evolves, so do packaging expectations. Today’s consumers look for labels that reflect transparency, sustainability, and clear product information. Many brands are embracing:
- Minimalist designs for a clean, modern appearance.
- Eco-friendly materials to reduce waste.
- Digital features like QR codes that tell the story behind the product.
SixB Labels helps brands navigate these trends while maintaining efficiency, accuracy, and compliance.
