Cover-Up Labels

Made a labeling mistake, updated your packaging design, or need to hide outdated information? Quadlabels’ cover-up labels (also known as blockout labels) give you a fast, precise way to conceal the previous label completely — with near-100% opacity that leaves no trace of what’s underneath.

Key Features of Our Cover-Up Labels

Near-100% Opacity

Materials for Blockout Labels

Under this product category, we offer the following papers:

48# CTT Cover-Up Paper

Purpose-built for cover-up applications, this paper stock delivers excellent opacity to fully hide the previous label. It's a reliable, cost-effective option for correcting labeling mistakes or updating product information.
White BOPP

2.3M White Metallized BOPP

A white metallized BOPP (Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene) film that combines strong opacity with visual appeal. Its metallic finish adds a touch of elegance while ensuring complete coverage of the label underneath.

Lamination & Finish Options

Gloss Lamination

A vibrant, high-shine finish that boosts visual impact while protecting your cover-up labels from scratches and fading. Gloss lamination gives labels a professional, polished look built to withstand handling and everyday wear.

Matte Lamination

A smooth, non-reflective finish for a more subtle, sophisticated look. Matte lamination reduces glare, adds understated elegance, and provides an added layer of protection against wear and tear.

No Lamination

For a natural, uncoated look, cover-up labels can also be left unlaminated. This lets the label material's inherent texture come through for a more organic, tactile feel — though it offers less protection against scratches and fading than a laminated finish.
