Honey labels
Self-adhesive lid seals in packs of 100 from €3, jar labels and custom rolls. Up to €34.95.
If your labels predate June, you have 18 months
Since 14 June 2026, RD 68/2025 governs, and it changes what goes on the front. If the honey comes from a single country, you state that country. If it is a blend, all the countries go in the main visual field, in decreasing order of weight and with the percentage of each — a 5 % tolerance per part is allowed, calculated on your traceability documentation. On packs under 30 g net you may replace names with two-letter ISO codes.
There is a second change that goes more unnoticed and hits anyone filtering fine: the «filtered honey» category ceases to exist as a presentation and becomes «honey for industrial use». That is not a naming nuance; it is a different thing on the shelf and a different price. If you filter below the threshold that removes pollen, this concerns you directly. The good news is that nothing has to be thrown out at once: product already labelled and placed on the market before 14 June can be sold until stocks run out, up to a maximum of 18 months from that date. That is the real window to empty the box of old labels and order the new ones.
Honey labels
The label is the only part of your honey the customer reads before buying. It is also the jar's legal document.
What the label must say
Denomination ("honey", and the floral variety if applicable), country or countries of origin —and since 14 June 2026, if it is a blend, with the percentage of each and in decreasing order, in the main visual field—, net weight, best-before date, packer details and the batch number. The batch is what lets you know, if something goes wrong, which jars came from which harvest — it is not bureaucracy, it is your safety net.
And since 14 June 2026 there is a change affecting the front: the honey quality standard links filtering to the denomination. If filtering removes pollen significantly, that conditions what you may call the product. Before ordering a thousand labels, check that the denomination you have printed still matches your process.
What it may NOT say
No mention of any effect on the health of whoever eats it. Reg. EC 1924/2006 only admits claims that appear expressly on its authorised list, and for honey none are approved. It is the most repeated error on beekeepers' labels and the easiest to avoid.
A seal and a label are not the same
The lid seal (€3-3.85 per 100) is tamper-evidence and brand reinforcement: "Spanish Product", "Country of Origin Spain". The body label carries the mandatory information. The two together are what make a jar look professional on a shelf.
To apply them straight and in series, the machines are in labelling machines; the container in honey packaging.
How is the batch shown on the label?
The indication is usually preceded by «L», unless it is clearly distinguishable from the other labelling particulars, and it must be visible, legible and indelible. On packed product it goes on the pack or on a label attached to it; on unpacked product it may go on the outer packaging, the container or the commercial documents.
You determine the batch as packer: it groups units produced or packed in practically identical circumstances. In some cases a best-before date with a clear day and month can serve as sufficient identification, but check before relying on that alone.
