Self-adhesive bottle and container labels that support changing products and artwork.
Keep the bottle. Change the label.
Using undecorated bottles with separately stocked labels can reduce the need to scrap printed containers when ingredients, formulations, regulatory wording or artwork change.
Labels can be applied closer to filling or distribution, helping reduce packaging inventory risk and making product updates more manageable. It is a practical alternative to committing all packaging artwork to screenprinted bottles.
Flexible inventory
Stock undecorated packaging separately from printed labels.
Artwork changes
Replace affected labels instead of disposing of otherwise usable preprinted containers.
Suitable constructions
Choose film, paper and adhesive for the container, contents and handling conditions.
Why a separate self-adhesive label is often more practical than a printed bottle
Packaging stock and printed artwork can move at different speeds. Keeping them separate can reduce the cost of changing a product.
Ingredient and formulation changes
When ingredients, claims, regulatory wording or a fragrance change, it may be possible to change only the required labels instead of scrapping preprinted bottles.
Less finished-bottle inventory
Standard undecorated bottles can be stocked centrally. Different product labels are then applied when the filling or distribution schedule becomes clear.
Decoration choices
Clear PP with strong opaque-white printing, coloured films, papers and hot foil can create convincing decoration. Bottle geometry, oils, water, squeeze behaviour and adhesive compatibility must be tested.
