What Are Shrink PVC Bottle Labels and OPP Labels?
Shrink PVC bottle labels are plastic labels that shrink when heated, perfectly conforming to the shape of the bottle. These labels are commonly used for:
✔ Packaged drinking water (AMDK)
✔ Ready-to-drink bottled tea
✔ Yogurt and fermented beverages
✔ Energy drinks in plastic bottles
Meanwhile, OPP (Oriented Polypropylene) labels are typically applied using roll-fed labeling machines for mass production. This type of label is lightweight and delivers sharp print results with either a glossy or matte finish. It is commonly used for:
✔ Carbonated soft drinks
✔ UHT milk and sterilized beverages
✔ Mass-produced bottled drinks
Types of Labels for Plastic Bottle Packaging
Before choosing a label, make sure you know the plastic bottle code that matches your packaging type.
1. Bottle Sticker Labels – Practical & Easy to Apply
Bottle sticker labels are adhesive labels that are directly attached to plastic, glass, or other packaging materials. They are suitable for bottles with flat surfaces without curves.
Advantages:
✔ Easy to apply without special machinery
✔ Ideal for bottles with smooth surfaces
✔ Can be printed with a glossy or matte finish
✔ Suitable for small to medium-scale production
2. Shrink PVC Labels for Plastic Bottles – Flexible & Premium Appearance
Shrink PVC labels shrink when heated, conforming perfectly to the bottle shape. These labels are widely used for bottled water, tea, yogurt, and energy drinks.
Advantages:
✔ Flexible and adapts to irregular bottle shapes
✔ Provides a premium look with full 360-degree design coverage
✔ Resistant to water, moisture, and friction, making it more durable
✔ Suitable for plastic bottles, glass bottles, and uniquely shaped packaging
Shrink PVC vs. OPP Label Materials – Which One is Best?
Shrink PVC labels and OPP labels are made from high-quality plastic materials:
✔️ PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride): Strong adhesion and flexibility, suitable for various bottle shapes
✔️ OPP (Oriented Polypropylene): Lighter, water-resistant, available in glossy or matte finishes
✔️ PETG (Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol): A more eco-friendly alternative, resistant to extreme temperatures
Design & Printing Process of Shrink PVC and OPP Bottle Labels
The design of shrink PVC and OPP labels uses the CMYK color system to ensure sharp and attractive print results. The CMYK colors include:
✔ Cyan (Blue-Green)
✔ Magenta (Red-Purple)
✔ Yellow
✔ Key (Black)
Shrink PVC and OPP labels are printed using rotogravure or flexographic printing technology, ensuring long-lasting colors and precise print details.
After printing, shrink PVC and OPP labels are distributed in rolls or individual pieces, depending on production needs and installation methods.
