40 YEARS OF LABEL MANUFACTURING
Still Here. Still Getting It Right.
Certified Labeling Solutions opened in 1986 in Hillsborough, NJ and has operated from the same location ever since. In 40 years we've watched dozens of label companies open, grow fast, cut corners, and close. We're still here because we didn't do that.
Our customers are buying dependability, not just labels. They want a vendor who'll still know their spec a decade from now — one that answers the phone, catches problems early, and ships clean labels on time, every time.
That's what 40 years builds. Relationships with suppliers who prioritize us. Institutional knowledge of your label spec. A team that troubleshoots before problems become recalls.

OUR EQUIPMENT
Production-Grade Equipment. Not Desktop Printers.
When a procurement manager asks "can you handle our volume?" — this is the answer.
Nilpeter 13" Press
7-Color Flexographic
7-color capability with 4-color process, backside printing, UV curing, and video web inspection. Our highest-capability press for complex, multi-color label runs.
Nilpeter 11" Press

6-color flexographic with UV curing, backside printing, advanced video inspection, and electronic registration. Ideal for high-detail precision labels.
Roto Press 16"

16-inch wide press for large-format labels and full-wrap applications. Sheet stacking, fan folding, and bulk volume production.
Allied Gear 10"
5-Color + Overlaminating
5-color with overlaminating and backside printing. Excellent for protective labels, industrial applications, and cut-single specialty runs.
100% Domestic Materials
We source nearly all raw materials — substrates, adhesives, inks — from domestic suppliers. Predictable supply chain. No overseas disruption delays. Your labels ship on time even when global supply chains don't.
Quality Control on Every Run
Video web inspection runs inline on every press. Barcode labels include ANSI/ISO scan verification. We catch problems before they ship, not after you've applied 500,000 labels.
2-Week Standard Turnaround
Most orders ship in approximately 2 weeks from artwork approval. Rush production available. Repeat orders with existing dies run faster — often in 1 week or less.
One Point of Contact
No ticket queue, no case number. The person who answers knows your history, your specs, and your preferences — because they handled your last order too.
Die Library — No Tooling Wait
Thousands of standard dies on hand means most label shapes ship without custom tooling orders. Common shapes, corners, and sizes: no delay, no tooling charge.
NJ Manufacturer — Tri-State Delivery
Located in Hillsborough, NJ. Fast delivery to NJ, NY, and PA. No cross-country shipping lead times. You're getting labels from 30 miles away, not 3,000.
