Returnable bottle washing

Used containers requiring sorting, label removal, washing, rinsing, drying and inspection.

Capping and closures

Caps, lids and closures

Screw caps

Threaded closures controlled by seating, engagement and application torque.

Labels wrapped around cylindrical containers using controlled rotation.

Front and back labels

Two labels positioned on opposite faces or sides of one container.

Full wrap labels

Long labels covering most of a container circumference.

Tapered-container labels

Clear labels

Transparent stock where bubbles, dust and low-contrast gap detection are visible.

Small labels

Short or narrow labels requiring accurate sensing and dispense control.

Large labels

Wide or long labels that magnify skew, tension and wipe-down errors.

Top labels

Labels applied to lids, cartons, trays or flat product surfaces.

Base labels

Labels applied underneath packs where presentation and support are constrained.

Pouch labels

Labels applied to flexible packs that may not present a flat rigid surface.

Carton labels

Identification or logistics labels applied to board packs.

Shrink sleeves

Printed film sleeves shrunk around part or all of a container.

Tamper-evident neck bands

Short sleeves positioned over a cap and neck before shrinking.

Batch codes

Variable identifiers used to connect packs to a production batch.

Date codes

Best-before, use-by or production dates printed onto packs.

Barcodes

Machine-readable linear symbols that require sufficient contrast and quiet zones.

Qr codes

Two-dimensional codes whose size, contrast and print quality affect scanning.

Shipping labels

Variable-data labels linked to an order, carrier or warehouse system.

Flexible packaging

Pouches, sachets and flexible packs

Premade pouch filling

Pick, open, dose and seal operations using finished empty pouches.

Sachet filling

Small-format flexible packs formed or handled for single doses.
