Labeling

Our new labeling service saves you time and money

InterChange now offers a label and sticker application service perfect for promotional and shipping application. Stickers or labels supplied on a continuous, non-perforated roll can be applied to flat corrugated cartons or filled cases for your products.

This service is available in all of our warehouses, including food-grade (FDA registered) refrigerated/chilled, organically-certified environments at 35oF and food-grade (FDA registered) or industrial dry/ambient environments between 42oF and 100+oF.

There is a short lead time to launch a labeling project — as little as 2 days for small projects, assuming materials are provided.

Labeling services offered

Here is a sampling of this service offering that InterChange can provide:

  • Unstack and open cases of product in master shippers
  • Remove individual cases/cartons
  • Apply one (1) pressure-sensitive adhesive label to either the case/carton or master shipper
  • Repackage cases/cartons into original or new master shipper
  • Palletize finished cases on pallet, stretch wrap unit
  • Apply pallet label
  • Ensure information link for product traceability
  • Recycle any corrugate scrap

Labeling machine specifications

  • Labels must come on rolls within the specified dimensions below
  • Label width can be from 0.4” up to a max 6.125”
  • Label length must be a minimum of 0.4” up to a max of 12”
  • Can label flat corrugate and filled cases (up to 15lbs+–we have not tested more than 15lbs as this is a factor of the conveyor belt rather than the applicator)
  • We have a 12’(l) x 10”(w) conveyor that the applicator is attached to—cases can be as wide as 20” (potentially more depending where the case is to be labeled and the weight distribution of the case)
  • Laser sensor senses when the beam is broken and then a timer is dialed in to the appropriate setting to begin applying the label
