Most glass bottles are used to contain food or alcoholic beverages, so it is necessary to indicate the product name, usage, ingredients, and other key information on the glass bottle. In order to differentiate oneself from other similar products, a logo is often placed in a prominent position on the product. With so much information, how can it be applied to the glass bottle? There are three common methods:
Sticker paper is a type of colored paper material used for handmade crafts and decorations. It typically has a backing adhesive and comes in various patterns, colors, and sizes.

Sticker paper can easily add color and detail to handmade crafts, making them more attractive and interesting. In addition to handmade crafts, sticker paper can also be used for home decoration, such as sticking it onto walls or furniture. Sticker paper is very popular in the field of arts and crafts because it is inexpensive, easy to use, and offers unlimited creative possibilities.
Screen printing is a common printing technique that uses a mesh screen and ink to print images or text onto various surfaces such as paper, fabric, plastic, and metal. This printing technique can be used on flat and three-dimensional surfaces, making it widely used in the production of logos, posters, stickers, T-shirts, tableware, electronic product shells, and more. The working principle of screen printing is to apply a layer of ink onto the mesh screen and then place the screen onto the object to be printed. The ink is then pushed through the open areas of the screen onto the object surface using a squeegee. Different colors of ink require different mesh screens to achieve colorful patterns and text. Screen printing has the following advantages
It can be printed on various shapes of objects, such as curved or irregularly shaped objects.
It can use a variety of types of ink and colors to achieve different effects and styles.
It is fast and can complete a large number of printing tasks in a short time.
It can be printed on different types of materials, such as paper, fabric, plastic, and metal.
Screen printing has a wide range of applications in various industries, such as advertising, textiles, electronics, and pharmaceuticals.
Labeling glass bottles is a common way of packaging, which can help differentiate different brands, sizes, and products. The general steps for labeling are as follows:
1, Prepare the label: Make or purchase the appropriate label according to the product’s needs. The label should include necessary information such as the product name, size, production date, and shelf life. Labels are generally printed on copperplate paper and can be attached with a waterproof film layer. The film can be made into a glossy or matte finish, making the product look more textured.
2, Prepare the glass bottle: Clean and disinfect the glass bottle that needs to be labeled to ensure a clean and smooth surface.
3, Apply the label: Stick the label onto the bottle. Align the bottom of the label with the bottle mouth and smooth it onto the bottle surface. If necessary, tools such as scrapers or squeegees can be used to help apply the label.
4, Complete: Count the labeled glass bottles to ensure that each bottle has the correct label and information.
When labeling, pay attention to the following:
1, The size and shape of the label should be suitable for the bottle to ensure that the label can completely cover the bottle surface.
2, The bottle surface should be clean and smooth, otherwise the label may not stick firmly.
3, When applying the label, pay attention to alignment and smoothness to ensure the label’s appearance is neat and beautiful.
Hand crank labeling machine
Many business owners purchase glass bottle labeling machines to package glass bottles, which can achieve a higher level of effect. If the number of bottles is small, buying a manual labeling machine will make the work very easy and enjoyable. A basic version of a manual labeling machine costs around $200. This type of labeling machine can only label cylindrical glass bottles. If you need to label other shapes of bottles, such as conical or square bottles, the labeling machine will be more expensive. If you encounter this type of product that needs labeling, we can help with labeling. At the same time, Amanda, the head of QLT Glass Bottle Products Co., Ltd., reminds everyone to try not to choose irregularly shaped bottles as they are difficult to label in subsequent packaging, such as conical glass bottles, which are prone to air bubbles and wrinkles during labeling. The easiest to operate is the cylindrical glass bottle.
