Short shelf life, fast turnover, the label has to keep pace.
A dairy product has a short shelf life, fast turnover on the shelf, and seasonal variants that change the design. The label has to withstand the cold chain, condensation, and a customer's wet hands, while still looking fresh and staying legible on a yogurt cup, milk bottle, or cheese container through the last day of shelf life. Our ISO 22000 certified printing process guarantees food contact safety.
Short shelf life, fast turnover on the shelf, and frequent design changes require a partner who can keep pace with you.
A conical cup requires a different approach than a flat surface. We use a thinner PP film that follows the curve, an adhesive with high initial tack for plastic PP cups, and a die-cut shape that eliminates wrinkling on the cone.
Plates and settings for existing flavors are saved in the system. A repeat print run for an existing product starts without new prepress, with a turnaround of 3-5 business days. A new flavor or seasonal variant requires prepress preparation plus Star Proof plus printing, at 5-7 days. A grouped order for multiple flavors lowers the cost per unit.
Our prepress team verifies that allergens are properly bolded, that lactose-free products carry a clear marking, and that the designs are visually distinct enough that a line operator can't mix up the labels. A different background color or a clear icon for lactose-free. Star Proof for every version before printing.
Questions about materials for yogurt cups and bottles, allergens, seasonal variants, and the ordering process.
PP synthetic with an adhesive formulated for PP plastic cups. A thinner film that follows the conical shape without wrinkling. UV coating to protect the print from condensation. The die-cut shape is adapted to each cup format (125g, 150g, 180g) so the label lies flat.
Yes. A reinforced adhesive for a smooth PET surface holds its grip even when condensation forms on the bottle. The PP label doesn't absorb moisture, and the UV coating protects the print. For a no-label-look, we use clear PP on a clear PET bottle.
Yes. PP synthetic with a UV coating doesn't absorb moisture and doesn't degrade when touched with wet hands. The print stays legible, the colors don't fade, and the barcode stays scannable. Lamination provides extra protection for products that are held longer.
Our prepress team checks the allergen list against EU regulations before the plates are made. Milk, casein, lactose, whey, and all derivatives are bolded in the ingredient list. Star Proof shows you exactly how the bolding will look on the printed label. You approve before printing.
We design the labels with a clear visual difference: a different background color, a clear "lactose-free" icon, or a changed accent color. The operator sees the difference at a glance and can't mix up the rolls. Every roll carries a clear product marking on the outside.
Yes. We print the brand design in flexo quality (logo, colors, fixed text), and you add the expiration date, lot, barcode, and product name on your thermal transfer printer on the line. We also produce compatible WAX/RESIN ribbons. We deliver the labels and ribbons together in the same shipment.
For repeat print runs of existing flavors, 3-5 business days, since the plates and settings are saved. For a new flavor, 5-7 business days (prepress plus Star Proof plus printing). A grouped order for multiple flavors of the same dimension lowers the cost per unit and shortens the overall turnaround.
Yes. Same material and dimensions, only new plates. Prepress and Star Proof take 1-2 days, printing 3-5 days. With six machines in operation, a seasonal order doesn't wait for a machine to free up. That's 5-7 business days total for a completely new label.
Repeat print runs, 3-5 business days. New labels, 5-7 business days from Star Proof approval. Grouped orders with multiple flavors, 7-10 business days for the full set. Six machines absorb seasonal peaks without extending the turnaround.
