Bottle Labelling Machines
Bottles are one of the most demanding products to label well. Curved, contoured or irregular surfaces, condensation, and the need for a label that sits perfectly straight every time all make bottle labelling a precise job — and for many products, the label is also a key part of how the brand is presented on shelf. ALS designs and builds bottle labelling machines that handle round, oval and shaped containers with consistent accuracy, for producers of all sizes.
Semi-automatic bottle labellers are bench-mounted units, ideal for smaller producers, artisan brands, or businesses running shorter batches across multiple products where flexibility matters more than raw speed.
Fully automatic labelling systems integrate directly into your production line, applying labels at high speed with no manual handling — built for producers running continuous or high-volume bottling operations.
Different bottles and different brand requirements call for different application methods:
Round bottles are straightforward; oval, contoured and irregularly shaped containers are not. Our systems use applicator modules and sensing to track each bottle's position and orientation as it moves along the line, so labels are applied straight and in the same position on every single container — whether that's a food jar, a cosmetics bottle, or a pharmaceutical vial.
Cosmetics & Personal Care — shelf appeal and brand consistency matter as much as speed. Our systems handle the shaped bottles and jars common across this sector while keeping label placement precise, run after run. Read more about labelling for cosmetics & personal care
Food & Beverage — bottle labels need to withstand handling, refrigeration and condensation without lifting or misaligning, while still supporting tamper-evident sealing where required. Read more about labelling for the food industry
Pharma & Medical — bottles and vials often require small, precisely positioned labels carrying batch, expiry and regulatory information, applied to a compliance-critical standard. Read more about labelling for pharma & medical
