18 Labels Per Sheet – Free Avery & A4 Label Templates​

What Are 18 Labels Per Sheet?

18 labels per sheet are standard-sized adhesive labels arranged 3 across and 6 down on A4 paper – perfect for everyday labeling, shipping, and organizing. Compatible with Avery L7161 and other common label software, they save time, avoid waste, and support both inkjet and laser printing.

When you’re dealing with labels, size and layout matter more than most think. Cramped formats? They cut off critical info. Poor alignment? That’s a printer jam waiting to happen.

That’s where the 18 labels per A4 sheet format shines. With dimensions of 63.5mm x 46.6mm, this setup balances space, visibility, and efficiency. I’ve seen users waste entire sheets—18 at a time—because the template didn’t line up. Not anymore.

Whether you’re labelling envelopes, tagging stock, or tracking inventory, this is the format you can trust to get the job done cleanly.

Free Templates & Customization Options

Downloadable Templates for Word & Avery

Templates should work, not fight back. I’ve tested and formatted free label templates specifically for 18 per sheet layouts, so you don’t waste time resizing or shifting fields.

You can download:

• Microsoft Word templates
• Google Docs-compatible versions
• Avery Design & Print software formats

All templates match Avery L7161, the industry gold standard. They’re also fully compatible with our in-house Label Planet LP18/63 sheets.

Want to add a logo, barcode, or QR code? Go ahead. These templates hold alignment even with full-colour designs.

Specialty Templates

Not all labels are created equal. For those with niche needs, I’ve included specialty layouts:

• Rounded rectangle templates for softer product labels.
• Freezer-safe designs for food packaging.
• Wash-off label templates for reusable jars and bottles.
• Integrated label sheets: half-label, half-invoice designs used in dispatch documentation.

All layouts use the same 18 per sheet label template structure, so switching between functions is seamless.

Label Materials & Adhesive Options

Material Types

Let’s talk finish. These aren’t your one-type-fits-all labels.

You can choose from:

• Matte white premium paper – for crisp everyday printing.
• Kraft brown ribbed paper – eco-friendly, textured, and rustic.
• Luxury metallics – silver and gold for high-end packaging.
• Transparent polyester – perfect for clear product packaging.
• Security void polyester – leaves a tamper-evident “VOID” mark.
• Direct thermal paper – for thermal printers (no ribbons needed).

Each material is precision cut for 18 labels per A4 sheet. That means no edge peel, no print bleed, and no wasted corners.

Adhesive Properties

Adhesive choice makes or breaks performance.

That’s why I offer:

• Permanent adhesive – Stays stuck on cardboard, glass, and plastic.
• Removable adhesive – Leaves no residue. Great for short-term use.
• Super removable – Specially made for delicate surfaces like books or gift wrap.
• High-tack adhesive – Designed for rough, fibrous, or industrial materials.

Cheap adhesive causes edge curl or mid-shipment peeling. My materials are adhesive-matched to the label type, so what you stick stays stuck.

Printer Compatibility & Finishes

Inkjet vs. Laser Printers

Inkjet and laser printers need different materials. Use the wrong type? You’ll get smudges, curl, or total misfeeds.

My 18 label sheets are marked clearly:

• Inkjet – For glossy, photo-quality designs.
• Laser – For sharp text and fast drying.
• Multipurpose – Works well with both, but best for black-and-white or single-colour printing.

Jam-Free Printing

I’ve seen it happen too often: 18 perfect labels, ruined by a jammed printer.

To fix that, I use Jam-Free edge technology. It keeps adhesive off your printer’s rollers. No sticky build-up, no alignment shift.

And with centrally-gapped spacing, your printer feeds sheets without drag. Less curl. More consistency.

Applications of 18 Labels Per Sheet

Sustainability & Ethical Practices
