Wine, Spirits & Craft Beverage Label Enhancement & Protective Options
At Inovar, we offer a variety of enhancement and protective options for your wine, spirits, and craft beverage product labels:
HOT AND COLD FOIL WITH CUSTOM TINTING
Foil stamping, hot or cold, both begin with the similar goal of adding metallic elements onto a label. Label materials that are non-metallic such as clear BOPP or textured paper could benefit from adding foil stamping.
RAISED TEXTURED VARNISHES AND EMBOSSING
A high build of varnish creates a raised-printing look and embossed effect. This process is a fantastic way to create a high-end look for your product and make certain features or textual elements pop.
Embossing creates raised areas of a label which could include lettering, graphics, or shapes.
MATTE, SATIN, AND GLOSS FINISH COMBINATIONS
Matte varnish subdues glare and reflections. Satin is a balanced between matte and gloss. High gloss varnish produces a wet look.
SOFT-TOUCH LAMINATIONS
Soft-touch offers a soft and smooth feel.
SANDPAPER VARNISH
As the name suggests, sandpaper finishes are in fact, gritty and rough to the touch. This finishing coat creates a three-dimensional textured effect that goes beyond what even the most textured papers can do.
TAMPER-PROOF LABELS
Tamper labels provide a critical security measure by ensuring that the product’s integrity is preserved and alerting consumers to any unauthorized access.
SCRATCH N’ SNIFF CUSTOMIZED INK
Scratch n’ Sniff labels use microencapsulated scents that release their fragrance when scratched, providing an interactive sensory experience.
UNCOATED AND LINEN STOCKS
Linen and uncoated stocks for wine labels offer a sophisticated and tactile touch, enhancing the elegance and perceived quality of the bottle.
SPECIAL DIECUT OPTIONS
Die cut labels are made by using a cutting tool of a particular shape and we are experts at creating custom die cut labels. Many of Black Birch Vineyard’s varietals (shown at right) include a unique die cut that forms the shape of a tree when wrapped around the wine bottle.
UP TO 12 COLOR PRINTING & COMBINATION PRINTING
Our hybrid and flexographic printing equipment can print up to 12 colors to ensure optimal color matching.
NFC FOR MARKETING CAMPAIGNS
Wine and spirit companies are using NFC technology to enhance their products and engage with consumers through a variety of applications including personalization, promotions, loyalty programs, and interactive packaging.
RFID FOR ANTI-COUNTERFEITING
Inovar proudly provides custom printed prime labels that contain embedded RFID tags meant for use, primarily, in retail inventory tracking and anti-counterfeiting.

Label and Packaging Needs Solved for Emerging Craft Spirit Brands
Boost your craft spirit brands with standout labels and packaging. Discover solutions to make your product shine in a booming, competitive market.
In the last twenty years, craft brews have become a staple of beer drinkers across the country. While the big brands will always have their loyalists, small breweries have taken more and more market share, leading to the prevalence of “micro-breweries” across the nation and something everyone has become accustomed to. It’s only in the last few years, however, that the emergence of craft spirits has really come into effect.
