Industrial Labelling machines can be used to apply a range of self-adhesive labels to just about any product face. From automated high-speed labelling to high-quality supermarket standard finishes – there are a number of benefits to having the correct labelling machine in your supply chain.
When applying labels to food product packaging, the labels produced by these machines must meet government labelling requirements while displaying your product information and company branding.
With different labelling orientations and configurations available, we want to help you find the best labelling machine to suit the needs of your business. Before choosing your labelling machine, you should always consider which type of label will best suit your requirements as well as the specific features of that label machine.
At Sovereign, we offer a range of unique industrial labelling machines which produce different label styles for a variety of industries and product requirements. You should always choose your labelling style based on your product design. We have listed 10 examples of labelling styles below:

Once you’ve decided on the labelling style which will best suit your needs, you can then look into more specific machine features. Our Monarch in-line labelling systems, for example, champions the labelling industry when it comes to a seamless label application. They typically perform at speeds up to 400 label applications per minute, 20 hours per day 6.5 days per week making them the preferred choice over rotary systems in many situations.
To understand how your label machine will perform after your purchase, we recommend analysing the following features:
You should consider the speed of your application head as a key feature of your labelling machine. Applicator heads which perform at variable speeds means you can speed up or slow down production depending on demand.
With branded products, you want to avoid poor labelling accuracy which will affect the final look of your product. Make sure your labels are as accurate as possible by choosing a label machine with a stopping accuracy to +/-0.5mm.
You should always make sure your label machine will be compatible with your existing coders, printers and scanners. If you’re unsure you can get in touch with us and we can help advise you.
