Aussie Business Celebrates 25 Years of Helping Boutique Manufacturers

Product labelling is a necessary expenditure for any manufacturing business, and outsourcing your label printing and application can be a costly endeavour. However, thanks to Great Engineering, an Australian-based company that makes labelling machines, boutique manufacturers are able to create and apply product labels in-house at a fraction of the cost. For 25 years, Great Engineering has been selling label applicators under its Bench Series brand.

If you are a boutique manufacturer looking for a bottle label applicator or any other type of labelling machine, you’ll probably come across equipment from many different companies, some of which may be copy-cat imitations of Great Engineering products. Here’s why you should only buy original label applicators from Great Engineering and its licensed distributors:

Great Engineering label applicators are made with an innovative design

Great Engineering patented the world’s first pressure sensitive label applicators over 25 years ago, and since then, the company has made numerous improvements to its machines to make them more effective in today’s competitive world of boutique manufacturing. You can now choose between hand operated and electrical models of label applicators. However, the most significant improvement to the applicators is that they are now fully integrated with Epson label printers.

Great Engineering partnered with Epson to make the world’s first label printing and application combination. With this combination, boutique manufacturers are able to print labels on demand and apply them instantly. This is very convenient for fulfilling individual orders. Thanks to their integration with Epson, Great Engineering applicators are now even more responsive. You can revise or update the labels on the go, which gives your product an edge in a market where the sales situation tends to evolve rapidly.

The printer-integrated applicators are also highly efficient. They can continue working even when you have to switch out the printer cartridges, which reduces downtime. You can easily replace printer roles without having to shut down the whole process.
Finally, the biggest advantage of printer-integrated label applicators is that they allow boutique manufacturers to enjoy better cash flow. Instead of tying up cash flow by keeping a large inventory of printed labels, manufacturers can now print and apply as many labels as they want, whenever they want. Great Engineering applicators give boutique manufacturers the ability to produce up-to-date labels, so they don’t have to lose money by discarding labels with outdated information.
