Clear Expiration Dates Protect Everyone

Expiration date labels are one of the most critical elements of food safety labeling. They tell consumers when a product is safe to eat, guide retail inventory rotation, and help food businesses comply with federal and state regulations.

We manufacture expiration date labels with variable data printing — each label can carry a unique date, lot number, or batch code. Our labels are used by food manufacturers, bakeries, delis, grocery stores, and food service operations.

Available in permanent, removable, and freezer-grade adhesive options to match your specific application.

Multiple Date Formats

MM/DD/YYYY, DD/MM/YYYY, Julian dates, and custom formats supported.

Expiration Label Types
