Frequently Asked Questions
Copy
Yes, our labels are designed to stay on securely, even in varying temperature ranges. Here’s how we do it:
-
- Temperature-Resistant Materials: We use materials like BOPP or vinyl that are resistant to moisture and condensation, so the labels hold up in both warm and cold temperatures.
- Strong Adhesive: Our labels feature a strong adhesive specifically designed to perform well under fluctuating conditions, from shipping to refrigeration.
- Protective Coatings: We add lamination or UV coatings to further protect the label from moisture, scratches, and temperature changes.

We offer a wide range of customization options to make your specialty beverage labels stand out. Here’s what we can do:
-
- Custom Shapes and Sizes: Whether you need classic standard shapes and sizes like rectangles and circles or custom shapes (die-cut or kiss-cut) to match your custom design, we can create the perfect fit for your packaging.
- Finishes: Choose from a variety of finishes, including gloss, matte, and spot UV coatings, to enhance your label’s appearance and durability.
- Printing Techniques: We offer options like digital printing for vibrant, full-color designs, screen printing for added texture, and foil stamping for a premium metallic look.

When it comes to applying labels to your custom beverage bottles, consider these things to make sure the labels adhere securely:
-
- Dry Surface: The application surface needs to be completely clean and free of dust, oils, or moisture. A dry surface helps labels bond properly.
- Temperature Range: It’s important to apply the labels within a stable temperature range to avoid issues with the adhesive. Extreme heat or cold can affect how well the labels stick to the bottles.
- Sufficient Drying Time: After applying the labels, allowing sufficient drying time helps adhesive set properly, especially if your bottles will be exposed to cold or humid environments.
- Labels and Surface Compatibility: The label adhesive should be matched to the specific application surface (whether glass, plastic, or aluminum) so that it holds up during handling, shipping, and storage.
- Tools for Application: For large quantities, using the right tools like automated labeling machines ensures even pressure and precision, resulting in a smooth, wrinkle-free application.
