Food packaging labels made in Cairo

Etalex prints labels for food and beverage packaging in Cairo, where the company has manufactured labels since 1952. We choose the label material for the way the pack is stored, and our labels are tested to perform from frozen food to humid storage. Our certificates include HACCP and ISO 9001:2015, issued by ABS Global.

Colourful labels catch the eye in a grocery store. We help you get the most from your label by matching the material to your requirements and using our range of papers to give it a more appealing look. Our designs and colours can also tie a family of products together on the shelf. See all our label printing services in Egypt.

Which food labels survive moisture and cold storage?

Heat, moisture and cold all affect how well a label performs and how long it lasts. That is why the label material you choose is defined by the storage conditions. Our quality testing checks label performance across a wide range of environmental extremes, from frozen food to humid storage.

Condition	What we do
Frozen food	Choose the label material for frozen storage; covered by our quality testing
Humid storage and moisture	Choose the label material for humid storage; covered by our quality testing
Heat	Choose the label material for the conditions the pack meets

Tell us where the pack will be filled, stored and sold, and our team will help you choose a label that suits the conditions and your brand. For a wider view of facestocks and adhesives, read our guide to self-adhesive label materials.

Materials and printing for food labels

We print food and beverage labels on a range of papers, chosen to match your requirements and the look you want. Most food work is printed as self-adhesive labels, which are named in our certified scope.

Everything is printed under one roof: letterpress (flat and rotary), rotary offset, flexography, silk screen and digital printing. For premium ranges we add hot stamping, embossed labels and multilayer constructions. Compare the processes on our label printing technologies page.

What to tell us when you specify a food label

The container and its surface (bottle, jar, tub, pouch or carton)
How the pack is stored: frozen, chilled, ambient or humid
The label size, quantity and number of versions
The finish you have in mind, if any

Food and beverage labels: frequently asked questions

Will the label survive moisture and cold?

Heat, moisture and cold all affect how a label performs, so we choose the material for your storage conditions. Our quality testing checks label performance across a wide range of extremes, from frozen food to humid storage. Tell us how the pack is filled, stored and sold, and our team will recommend a suitable label.

What should I confirm about food contact?

Our factory holds a HACCP certificate issued by ABS Global, valid until 16 May 2027, and you can open it on our certificates page. Food-contact suitability depends on the material, adhesive and ink of each label, so tell us whether the label will touch food and our team will discuss the options with you.

Which printing processes do you use for food labels?

Our Cairo factory runs letterpress (flat and rotary), rotary offset, flexography, silk screen and digital printing, with hot stamping and embossing for finishing. Our certificates cover flexographic, offset, screen and digital printing. The right process depends on run length, artwork detail and finish, and our team recommends one when you send your specification.

What do you need from me to quote food labels?

Send the label size, the quantity and number of versions, the container it goes on and how the pack is stored, from frozen to ambient. Add the material or finish if you know it. You can send all of this through our quote form and attach artwork or a specification.
