Across the globe, small to large companies are joining the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic. \u00a0For example, apparel giant Nike now makes face shields<\/a> to help fill the shortage of PPE for healthcare workers.<\/p>\n

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends using alcohol-base sanitizers (at least 60% alcohol content) when washing hands with soap and water is not possible.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This has gravitated many distilleries (including Anheuser-Busch) nationwide have joined in the fight by converting their stockpile of spirits to hand sanitizer for business continuity reason or otherwise.<\/p>\n

For these distillers, that\u2019s the easy part \u2013 blending spirits with aloe vera gel, hydrogen peroxide and natural scents into the new mixture.\u00a0<\/p>\n

However, the challenging aspect is labeling the hand sanitizer bottles.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Companies must find a way to label their bottles with ingredients information for their new offerings.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Proper ingredient labeling becomes important to inspire consumers\u2019 trust in these new brands of hand sanitizers. This is regardless if the sanitizers are donated or sold.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Besides the label design, using pre-printed labels can be a challenge – the usual MOQ requirement and intensifying long delivery lead-time.<\/p>\n

Digital Labeling workflow simplifies product switch-over<\/h2>\n

Distillers who have adopted digital labeling or printing their own product labels in-house have a distinct advantage in making the switch-over easily.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Printing product labels with desktop color label printers like the VIPColor VP650\/VP750 is a simple 3-steps process, \u00a0<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Design the label using graphic design software like Adobe illustrator or a label design application like Bartender.\u00a0<\/li>\n
  2. Load the appropriate pre-diecut blank label stock on the printer.<\/li>\n
  3. Press print and you get your labels. On the VP650\/VP750, you can print 1,000 3\u201d x 2\u201d (8 cm x 5 cm) bottle labels within 10 mins.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    With digital workflow, you can print different label designs, serialized or batch dated in a single step.\u00a0 This saves time and cost.<\/p>\n

    VP650\/VP750 labels are also<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Water resistant<\/li>\n
    2. Able to withstand 70% alcohol swaps or rubs.\u00a0 This means no ink smear or unreadable text<\/li>\n
    3. Uses Non-toxic water based dye inks.<\/li>\n
    4. Richly colored.\u00a0 This makes graphics pops.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      This makes VP650\/VP750 labels durable enough for daily use.\u00a0<\/p>\n

      Finally, VIPColor printers are capable of printing fine readable text (5 pt font size or even smaller) at high resolution of 1600 x 1600 dpi.\u00a0 This is important for small bottle labels.<\/p>\n

      There is no better time to consider the digital labeling workflow and have full control over your product labeling need during this disruptive time period.<\/p>\n
