Beer labels are much more than a graphic element. In the brewing industry, they perform an essential technical function, as they need to maintain their appearance, adhesion and print quality in cold, humid and condensation-prone conditions.
At Gráficas Alarcón, we manufacture beer labels for craft breweries, bottling companies and canning facilities looking for technical quality, durability and a flawless appearance.
A label can have an excellent design and still fail if it cannot withstand the conditions in which the product is used. Beer labels need to withstand condensation, humidity, sudden temperature changes and frequent handling without lifting, creasing or losing print quality.
The key technical requirement in this sector is resistance to cold conditions. Beer spends much of its shelf life under refrigeration, so the paper, adhesive and finishes need to be specifically selected for this environment.
We use materials designed to withstand prolonged exposure to refrigeration, cold and moisture. The result is a consistent appearance that preserves the brand image from the production line through to consumption.
As a specialist beer label manufacturer, we develop bespoke solutions tailored to each format, production volume and commercial requirement.
These production volumes are ideal for growing craft breweries, regional producers and bottling companies that need flexibility without compromising on quality.
In addition to manufacturing beer labels, we provide expert advice on selecting the right materials, adhesives and finishes for each project. We assess the type of packaging, application system, distribution channel and storage conditions to ensure the labels perform as effectively as possible.
This production capacity makes us a reliable specialist beer label supplier for brands looking for a stable, long-term production partner.
Cold resistance is one of the most important requirements in any beer labelling project. As a specialist beer label printing company, we therefore use materials specifically designed to maintain their performance on wet and refrigerated surfaces.
The most commonly used materials include:
These substrates provide excellent stability under refrigerated conditions and help maintain the product’s visual quality.
The choice of adhesive is also critical. For bottles, we use permanent adhesives designed for application to cold, wet glass. For cans, we use solutions specifically developed for metal surfaces to ensure reliable adhesion even in the presence of condensation.
We also use moisture-resistant inks and technical finishes designed to withstand refrigeration, cold storage and ice buckets without deterioration. We offer embossing, foil stamping, die-cutting, spot varnishes, protective laminates and textured finishes for projects that require additional differentiation.
The canned beer market continues to grow, creating a significant opportunity for brands looking to increase production and expand their distribution.
We work with 33 cl, 44 cl and 50 cl can formats, developing projects for companies that require high-quality industrial labelling solutions. Minimum production runs typically start at 100,000 units, a volume that helps optimise costs and provides access to highly efficient printing processes.
Beer labels for cans require materials that are compatible with aluminium, specialist adhesives and printing processes capable of maintaining visual consistency across high-volume production runs. This type of labelling has become a strategic area for many growing beer brands.

Self-adhesive craft beer labels play a key role in helping brands stand out. Consumers pay particular attention to label design, materials and finishes.
For this reason, we offer solutions using high-quality papers, distinctive textures, metallic foil stamping and speciality finishes that help products stand out on crowded shelves, in specialist retailers and at the point of sale. As beer labelling specialists, we understand that strong presentation can make a real difference to purchasing decisions.
Labels for gluten-free and alcohol-free beer are responding to growing market demand.
These products require their specific characteristics to be clearly and visibly identified, together with all relevant mandatory information. We tailor each project to ensure regulatory compliance while maintaining an attractive appearance that is consistent with the brand’s visual identity.
In addition to their role in brand presentation, beer labels must include all the information required by current regulations.
Back labels typically include:
For gluten-free beers, correctly identifying allergens and including the relevant specific declarations is particularly important to ensure clear communication with consumers.
A custom beer label can strengthen a brand’s positioning and help build a unique visual identity.
We offer a wide range of customisation options:
We also offer Wash Off labels for producers who reuse bottles and need to optimise bottle washing and recovery processes.
Specific expertise makes a significant difference when it comes to manufacturing beer labels designed to withstand cold, moisture and continuous handling.
Our team has developed projects for brands such as Cervezas Fernández Pons, where moisture resistance was a priority due to refrigerated distribution, and La Somniada, an organic craft brewery looking for high-quality finishes and a distinctive brand image at the point of sale.
We have also worked with Gándara, a craft beer from Bodegas Fernandez Pons whose labels are manufactured by our team.
We also work with materials suitable for food-contact applications, including low-migration inks and processes aligned with quality standards such as BRC. These solutions help meet the requirements commonly applied across the food and beverage industry.
Our standard delivery times are between 10 and 15 working days for projects without special finishes, allowing us to respond quickly to our customers’ production requirements.
