Ceramic Print Shelf Appeal
The retail consumables market has a myriad of brands all vying for the attention of discerning consumers.
Craft brands are looking to stand out among the competition.
Stunning Screen Printed Labels
Let us help differentiate your brand with the variety of stunningly beautiful results possible exclusively from our direct to glass label printing process, frosted bottle, and colored glass options.
Durable Paper Label Alternative
Paper labels can be subject to water and scuffing damage. Our directly printed labels combine screen printing with heat bonding of the painted labels to glass for a durable alternative.

Vinoseal bottle closures add a color coordinated glass cherry on top that sets your brand apart from the rest.

The Universal Packaging Story
One-family owned since 1985, Universal Packaging began life as the bottle printer for the Clearly Canadian soda brand.
As time went by the owners saw a need for a label printing service and bottle supplier to serve the burgeoning Okanagan Valley wine growing region.
From these humble local beginnings Universal Packaging has grown to serve our craft brand partners throughout the Pacific North West (British Columbia, Alberta, Washington, Oregon, Idaho, California and beyond).
We have continued to expand to serve new markets in the Health & Beauty, cosmetics, nutraceutical, and cannabis spaces.
Glass Packaging Production Capabilities
Our 66,000 sq. ft. production and warehousing facility has five screen printing machines capable of producing thousands of decorated bottles daily.
We are able to accommodate any order size, whether you need 10 cases or thousands.
