FAQ
Q1: Can I get a custom design for my shrink sleeve labels?
A: Absolutely! We specialize in OEM/ODM services. You can provide your logo and artwork in AI, PDF, or high-resolution PSD formats. Our design team can also assist in optimizing your layout to ensure the best shrinkage effect on your specific bottle shape.
Q2: Which material should I choose: PVC, PETG, or OPS?
A: It depends on your container and market:
· PVC: Most cost-effective, ideal for simple shapes and common applications.
· PETG: The most popular eco-friendly choice with high shrinkage (up to 75-78%). It’s perfect for highly contoured "irregular" bottles and is widely accepted in the US and EU markets.
OPS: Best for squeeze bottles due to its soft touch and low vertical shrinkage.
Q3: What is your Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ)?
A: Our standard MOQ for gravure printing is 10,000 to 20,000 pieces (depending on the size). However, for startups or new product testing, we offer Digital Printing options with a much lower MOQ to help you get started without high initial costs
Q4: How do you ensure the label fits my bottle perfectly?
A: We highly recommend sending us your physical empty bottles. Our engineers will measure the dimensions and calculate the precise shrinkage rate. We also provide digital proofs and samples for you to test in your heat tunnel before the final mass production.
Q5: Are your shrink labels eco-friendly and recyclable?
A: Yes! We support global sustainability goals. We offer PETG labels which are more recyclable than PVC. We can also add vertical/horizontal perforations (tear lines) for easy removal and recommend washable inks to facilitate the PET bottle recycling process.
Q6: What is the typical lead time for an order?
A: For first-time orders, it usually takes 10-15 days after the design is confirmed and the deposit is received (this includes plate making). Repeat orders are faster, typically within 7-10 days.
Q7: How do you handle shipping to prevent heat damage during summer?
A: Shrink labels are heat-sensitive. For summer or tropical shipments, we use heat-insulated packaging (thick pearl cotton and aluminum foil) and mark cartons with "Keep Cool" labels. For long-distance sea freight in peak summer, we recommend reefer (refrigerated) containers.
Q8: Can I get samples before placing a bulk order?
A: Yes. We offer free stock samples (previous designs) for you to check the material quality. For custom samples with your own design, there is a sampling fee, but it can be refunded once the bulk order reaches a certain volume.
Q9: Do you support automatic labeling machines or manual application?
A: Our labels are compatible with both! We can provide labels in rolls (for high-speed automatic machines) or pre-cut pieces (for manual application). Please specify your machine's requirements (roll direction, core size) when ordering.
Q10: Why should I choose Tongcheng Guozhao over other suppliers?
A: We are a Verified Manufacturer with years of export experience. We pride ourselves on a 99.8% response rate, meaning your inquiries are handled almost instantly. Beyond just printing, we provide a full solution—from bottle measurement to technical support for your shrink tunnel settings.
