02 / BEVERAGE & CRAFT BEER

Multi-SKU labels and matching sets: align the brand and the use conditions first.

Labels and gift boxes for craft beer, beverages and drinks have to handle bottle and can appearance, multiple versions and chilled display. Settle the container, labelling method, quantity per SKU and gift box combination early, so design and production fit together.

Suitable for: craft brands, breweries, beverage brands, co-branded products and beverage gifting programmes

01 / YOUR CHALLENGES

These are worth resolving before you order.

01

Many new flavours, and revisions easily mix up versions?

Build a table linking flavour, volume, barcode and quantity, and manage the different designs under one brand framework.

02

Condensation appears and the label state becomes unstable?

Separate labelling on a dry bottle from labelling with droplets present, describe the chilling, immersion and warming-back process, and observe samples under real conditions.

03

The single bottle looks good, but the gift box combination does not?

Assess the bottle label, outer box, inner tray and unboxing sequence together, and confirm colour and set dimensions against samples.

02 / LABELS & PACKAGING

Labels and packaging boxes, in one brief.

Bottle & can labels

Container shape, label area, number of designs and roll winding requirements; confirm hand application and machine application separately.

Beverage gift boxes and multi-packs

Bottle or set quantity, bottle weight, fixing method and carry requirements — pack a sample first, then confirm production.

Materials, processes, order quantity and lead time are assessed against your actual requirement; confirm the applicable samples and the scope we can take on before scheduling production.

03 / WORK WITH ZHUSHANG

Work with Zhushang to bring the requirement down to detail.

Print imagery helps you discuss the visuals

Existing packaging print imagery can be used to discuss key visuals, wording and barcode zones; it does not replace bottle label application testing.

See the basis and method ↗

Manage multiple designs on a table

List quantity, artwork version and lead time for each design, so a total-only quotation does not lead to misunderstanding.

See the basis and method ↗

Confirm equipment requirements early

Prepare the core, roll diameter, winding direction and photos of the bottles and cans together, and confirm compatibility at the sampling stage.

What cold-storage checks should craft beer labels pass?

First establish the actual bottles and cans, the labelling surface, how long they are chilled and the warming-back process, then agree the checks on appearance, edge adhesion and legibility; the specific material conclusion comes from the sample results.

Can small batches of multiple designs be scheduled together?

Please list the dimensions, quantity, artwork status and expected lead time for each design. Whether the run can be combined, and the cost, depend on the actual specification and cannot be decided from the total sheet count alone.

Can packaging print images prove that a bottle label is water-resistant?

No. Images can only show the visible production and layout detail; water resistance and fit for condensation conditions need matching materials and test records.

05 / START YOUR BRIEF

Bring these three kinds of information,
and start a concrete discussion.

You can submit what you have now and mark undecided items “to be confirmed”.

  1. 01The physical bottles and cans, capacity and label area
  2. 02Number of flavours, quantity per flavour, artwork status
  3. 03Chilling process, labelling equipment, gift box combination
