Decorating

Custom Bottle provides silkscreen decorating and pressure sensitive label application for a complete package.

With state-of-the-art Kammann presses, Custom Bottle has the capability to perform high-speed single and multi-pass silk-screening on a variety of round and oval bottles manufactured in polyethylene, polypropylene, PVC and PET. The decorating department supplies extremely accurate color-to-color registration and superior quality, and our high speeds translate into faster delivery times especially on multi-pass work. Fine details and a high gloss appearance are achieved through the use of environmentally friendly UV inks. All our decorating, including single-pass work, is automatically seam registered for the best possible result. The inclusion of in-line flaming on all our machines ensures that the finished product will meet the most stringent adhesion tests. Custom Bottle also offers full in-house screen making and custom color matching as well as UPC code verification services.

Custom Bottle can apply your pressure sensitive label - either as the sole bottle decoration or in conjunction with silk-screening. Our equipment allows us to apply labels that are full wrap, front and back panels, or spot labels in conjunction with silk-screening. All labels are automatically seam registered.

Our in-house decorating capability gives our customers a variety of savings. Our prices reflect the efficiencies we obtain by using high speed equipment and the labor savings promoted by our use of automatic unscrambling, line-feeding equipment. In addition, utilizing our decorating facility eliminates the necessity of paying freight to an outside decorator, and we absorb all scrap loss.

Custom Bottle has a large library of decorating tooling for our stock bottles and we are constantly adding decorating and auto feeder tooling. Our Custom Bottle staff is always available to assist you with your decorating needs.
