150 cc packer bottle

Typical label

2.5 × 6 in

Holds about 90 size 0 or 120 size 1, with a desiccant. Takes a 38 mm lid. If your count runs higher, step up a bottle rather than squeezing the desiccant out.

The bottle is about 6.6 in around, so a 6 in label leaves a clean gap at the seam.

Sizes are written height × around, the way label printers quote them.

Typical for stock bottles. Your manufacturer's bottle may differ; confirm the label size with them before printing.

YOUR LABEL, ESTIMATED (HEIGHT × AROUND)3.85 × 6.35 in
Width is the distance around the bottle (3.1416 × diameter) minus a quarter inch so the ends never overlap; height is the flat panel minus a quarter inch of breathing room. Measure the panel, not the bottle: a label cannot climb the shoulder or the heel.
Estimate only. Confirm with your manufacturer.

Before you print anything: these are typical sizes for stock bottles. Molds differ by a tenth of an inch between suppliers, which is enough to make a label overlap. Ask your manufacturer for the dieline of the exact bottle they will fill, and proof one label on one bottle first. This page is for general help only. Label sizes vary by bottle mold and supplier. Always confirm the exact label size with your manufacturer before printing.

The request wizard asks for the container, the count and who prints the labels, so every manufacturer prices the same thing.
