Complete Sleeve Labeling Lines for the Dairy Industry

Labeling is one of the most strategic stages in the dairy product manufacturing process. More than just identifying, a label communicates, highlights, and differentiates brands on the shelf. In this competitive scenario, complete sleeve labeling lines for the dairy industry represent a cutting-edge solution for manufacturers seeking production efficiency, visual appeal, and compliance with regulations.

Sleeve technology transforms the way packaging connects with consumers, offering a modern, engaging, and highly customizable finish. And when it comes to excellence in this field, IMEK is a national reference, providing innovative and specialized solutions in sleeve labeling.

How the Complete Sleeve Labeling Line for the Dairy Industry Works

IMEK’s complete sleeve labeling line is made up of a set of equipment designed to ensure high performance and precision in the application of heat-shrink labels. The process begins with the bottle positioner, which automatically organizes the containers on the conveyor.

Next, the sleeve labeler applies the sleeve-shaped label over the packaging — whether bottles, jars, or containers. Then, the shrink tunnel uses steam to adjust the sleeve perfectly to the shape of the package. Finally, the steam generator ensures the ideal and constant temperature for efficient label shrinking.

This technology offers:

• 360° labeling;

• High production speed;

• Compatibility with various types and shapes of packaging;

• Millimetric precision in application;

• Integration with industrial automation systems.
