In packaging, labeling plays a crucial role in product identification and traceability. However, when it comes to small products, the precision of label application becomes a real challenge. Whether it’s cosmetics with perfume bottles, cream jars, or pharmaceutical tubes, these products require a tailored solution for precise labeling.
A poorly placed, wrinkled, or misaligned label can damage the brand image and even create issues with the readability of legal information.
What is a “small product” in packaging?
The definition of a small product can vary by industry, but at CDA USA, we define small products as containers with a diameter of less than 40mm.
This diameter directly impacts the choice of equipment and labeling solutions, as it introduces specific challenges regarding stability, label application accuracy, and production speed.
CDA USA’s expertise in labeling small products
One of the major challenges when labeling small containers is ensuring their stability throughout the labeling process. To ensure our machines apply labels accurately, quickly, and consistently on the smallest formats, we offer a variety of options:
- Adapted Conveyors: We offer several conveyor sizes to perfectly suit small formats. A conveyor that is too large can cause instability, causing products to fall and disrupting the labeling machine’s proper functioning.
- Custom Machined Rollers: Our rollers are specially designed based on the samples you provide, ensuring precise and uniform application, avoiding wrinkles and misalignments.
- Mini Kits for Finer Adjustments: These kits allow for ultra-precise adjustments to guarantee proper label alignment and prevent application defects.
With these options, our machines adapt to even the smallest formats while maintaining optimal production speed. Additionally, we provide technical support to ensure proper machine setup based on your product’s specifications.
