Best-fit applications

Where this sleeve applicator route usually fits.

Full-body sleeve projects normally benefit from a complete line view: applicator, conveyor, tunnel, steam or heat route, coding position and downstream packing must be considered as one process.

  • Beverage, cosmetic and household bottles
  • Shaped containers that need high label coverage
  • Promotional or seasonal sleeve designs
  • Projects where applicator and tunnel should be specified together
  • Bottle shoulder and base geometry
  • Sleeve artwork, barcode and seam position
  • Finished shrink quality expectations
  • Bottle stability through the tunnel
  • Need for steam, hot-air or electric shrink

FAQ

Full-body sleeves questions

Can full-body sleeves be used on shaped bottles?

Yes, but shaped bottles should be tested because shoulders, grips and taper affect shrink quality and artwork distortion.

Does the tunnel affect label appearance?

Yes. The tunnel has a major effect on wrinkle control, seam position, shoulder shrink and barcode readability.

What is needed for a full-body sleeve line quote?

Provide bottle samples, sleeve details, artwork position, output target, utility availability and layout drawings if available.
