The success or failure of a household product is decided at the point of sale. The label is indispensable in this regard – as a source of both sales-minded product information and variable data, as a practical seal and an attention-grabbing promotional tool. Applicators therefore have to be capable of covering the widest possible range of formats, shapes and label types.
- HERMA labeling machines are extremely quick to set up. Their preformed format parts, for instance, can generally be replaced with just a few minor manual interventions with no need for tools.
- No matter how many pressure-sensitive labels you require for each product: multiple applicators can be seamlessly integrated into our labeling machines.
- Our modular design system lets you fit out your machine with a variety of different printing, monitoring and ejector components with no need for expensive custom designs. Even complying with applicable sanitary regulations is made easy thanks to the use of easy-to-clean stainless steel paneling.
- Space is at a premium in your production lines. HERMA applicators and labeling machines feature an impressively compact design, and are easy to integrate into existing filling and packaging systems.
- HERMA labeling machines meet the machine efficiency levels defined by DIN 8743: short setup times, excellent operator comfort and outstanding reliability combine to produce a hugely effective overall system.
Knowing what matters when it comes to labeling household products
When it comes to the large-scale production of household products and items, labeling machines require three traits above all: performance, reliability and precision. If you are a contract filler or packer, you need extra flexibility to ensure that systems and equipment are well utilized even when changing products frequently. Before making your investment as a manufacturer, supplier or co-packer, you should consider the extent to which the criteria above apply to your products
Perfect label placement even on challenging shapes
Whether it’s soap dispensers, dish soap, shoe polish or floor cleaner, and whether the products are for the kitchen, bathroom, lavatory or just general household use: primary packaging for household products – although generally plastic containers – can sometimes come in very challenging shapes, depending on the industry and sector. Your labeling machine should be able to meet such challenges without any issues.
Strong focus on appealing optics
Wrinkle-free label application is essential to an impressive retail product. When a product is visually appealing, consumers often assume it is high-quality. HERMA offers the right peel plates for every product size and surface quality. Reap the benefit of our leading labeling technology and extensive experience.
One solution for every scenario
Does your company want to be capable of applying multiple labels for a variety of purposes, and in a range of sizes, onto a product at the same time? For instance, one label for your advertising content, one for the ingredients, one for the price and an additional promotional label? And with the positions of each label precisely defined in relation to each other? Then a modular, enhanceable design that lets you avoid costly custom solutions becomes even more essential.
The peace of mind of having everything under control
Is a specific label actually in place and legible? Is its vital variable data perfectly printed out? Have you ensured that products that don’t have labels are reliably rejected? HERMA labeling machines are designed to enable you to use a wide range of conventional printing and checking stations. The data provided in the process can help you with releasing your products on the market, removing them from the production process or returning them to it, depending on your specific requirements.
Rapid format changes ensure minimal setup times
The wider the variety of product formats and shapes you want to label and the smaller your batch sizes, the more important short setup times and maximum flexibility become. Many format parts on the HERMA can be changed without tools; with a labeling machine such as the 362E, you can even switch from two-side to wrap-around labeling in the blink of an eye.
Product and label types on and for household products
Triggering buying impulses, providing instructions for use, naming ingredients, meeting statutory labeling requirements, showing manufacturer numbers or highlighting tampering: the functions of a label on household products are extremely diverse. With a wide range of product types and formats to choose from, we provide you with particularly comprehensive advice on what a sensible “packaging” solution for your future labeling machine might look like, based on your specific requirements.
The following product types are used
Cans, bottles, dispensers and jars are prevalent types of primary packaging for household products, while secondary packaging such as folding cardboard boxes are also sometimes used.
The following labels are used
There are few limits to the use of labels on household products: two-side, wrap-around, top and bottom and tamper-evident packaging labeling are all common features. The latter often serves as proof that the original packaging has not been opened. A wide variety of adhesive materials are used for the labels themselves.
