Wrap-around label application

Wrap around labelling machine

A wrap around labelling machine applies a pressure-sensitive label around the circumference of a cylindrical container. It is commonly used for bottles, jars, cans, vials and tubs where label straightness, rotation control and repeatable presentation matter.

  • Automatic, compact and semi-automatic routes
  • For round bottles, jars, cans, tubs and vials
  • Specification support for label size, roll direction and output
  • Suitable for new lines or existing packaging layouts
Wrap around labelling machine for round containers

Best fit

When a wrap around labelling machine is the right choice

Cylindrical packs

Best for containers that rotate consistently, including bottles, jars, cans and vials.

Self-adhesive labels

Designed for roll-fed pressure-sensitive labels in paper, film or transparent materials.

Consistent presentation

Controls product rotation and label application so labels sit straighter and more repeatably.

Specification points

Details that affect machine specification

Container diameter

Measure the minimum and maximum diameter, height and stability of the container.

Label width and length

Include the label gap, roll direction, core diameter and whether the label is transparent.

Production target

Clarify whether the process is operator-fed, compact automatic or fully inline conveyorised.

Range comparison

Machine routes to compare

Automatic wraparound labellers

For higher-output conveyorised lines where repeatability and integration are important.

Compact automatic labellers

For growing production that needs automation within a smaller footprint.

Semi-automatic labellers

For operator-fed batches, start-ups and frequent product changeover.

Questions

Common questions before specifying a labeller.

?

Is wrap around labelling only for bottles?

No. The same principle is used for round jars, cans, tubs, vials and other cylindrical containers if the product can be rotated consistently.

?

Can clear labels be applied?

Clear labels can often be handled with the right sensor and set-up, but the label material and backing liner should be checked before specification.

?

Can the machine be added to an existing line?

Yes, automatic machines can be specified for existing conveyor lines when container handling, line speed and available space are reviewed.
