Can a Jar Label Machine Improve my Speed of Production?

When you first launched your CBD business, you most likely labeled your products manually. This can be a great method when you are first getting settled into the industry, but you may have recently realized that this method simply does not work for your business anymore. As your CBD products gain traction with consumers, hand labeling your products quickly become inefficient and can slow down your production line. 

More specifically, if you are packaging your CBD products in jars, you probably understand that manually labeling these containers is especially difficult. Due to their shape, jarred products can create more wasted supplies and materials when labeled by hand. Applying your labels manually takes a lot of concentration, hard work, and practice which can ultimately slow down your production line.

As a business owner, you more likely than not have a ton of other things you need to be doing rather than ensuring that your labels are applied correctly to every single product. Wouldn't it be nice to rid yourself of this worry so you can set your focus elsewhere? Luckily, there’s a solution.

If you are struggling to increase your productivity, you are probably already aware that labeling machines exist. However, you may be wondering exactly how they work and if making the investment would be the best choice for your CBD business. Let’s dive into everything you need to know about how a jar label machine can improve the speed of your production.

Problems With Manually Labeling

Before we dive into how a jar label machine can improve your production, let’s take a look at some of the problems you may have encountered with manually labeling your CBD products.

First, you may have noticed that it is extremely difficult and nearly impossible to achieve perfectly applied labels to every jarred product. Unfortunately, their round shape makes it tough to wrap your labels around evenly and without any bubbling. Ultimately, this leads to wasted materials, products, and money. Consumers look for CBD products that are visually appealing and high-quality, which means that misplaced labels are not going to get your product to sell. In an already demanding industry, it is important to ensure that your CBD labels are consistent.

Additionally, manually applying your labels is a very long process. Along with this, your employees may be feeling pressure when it comes to trying to perfect every single label. From the time it takes to gather your materials, apply them, and let your labels dry, you’ve probably realized that you're missing out on sales due to the low number of products being produced.

Fortunately, adding a jar label machine can help resolve all of these problems that you are currently experiencing.

Introducing an Automatic Jar Label Machine

You may be feeling intimidated by the process of adding a jar label machine to your production. However, it’s more simple than you may think.

One of your biggest concerns may be the cost upfront. However, labeling machines quickly pay for themselves after a short period of time. When you invest in a labeling machine, costs for labor and wasted products ultimately decrease. Additionally, your employees who were previously tasked to apply labels onto your jarred products can be relocated elsewhere in your company which can lead to overall improved efficiency. This not only saves you money but also allows your employees to apply their skills elsewhere. Labeling machines are consistent and reliable, which means less wasted product produced from mislabeling will dramatically decrease as well. 

When you choose a great labeling partner, like Pack Leader USA, choosing the right machine for your business needs is easy. You won’t have to worry about any issues with your machine and your production line will move as quickly as ever.

How They Work

Automatic labeling machines are simple. They work at the press of a button and will continue running when you need them. Unlike employees, the machines don’t need breaks for holidays or vacations, which means that they are there to work even if you’re not. Your jarred CBD products go into one end of the machine and come out the other with a beautifully applied, high-quality label. This means that as a business owner, you do not have to worry about watching over your labelers anymore.

Our Recommendations

Choosing the best labeling machine for your products can be a difficult task. However, when it comes to labeling jarred products, there are a few general options that we recommend.

When it comes to jars, using a wrap around labeling machine is a great option to choose from. If you are using a simply rounded-shaped jar for your packaging, wrap around labels will most likely work best. This is because the surface is completely smooth, meaning that your labels will be applied correctly without any bubbling. Additionally, if you have an intricately designed label with unique artwork, wrap around labels will be able to showcase your great design. 

If the jars that you are using for your CBD products are a unique shape, using a front and back labeling machine may be the best option for you. Due to their shape, using a front and back labeler will allow for the labels to be placed evenly, rather than wrapping them around and risking mislabeled products.
