About Us

Axon has been designing, manufacturing, and supporting shrink systems since 1991. Our start in the shrink system business began with tamper-evident bands for over-the-counter medications and pain relievers. Today we are a recognized leading supplier of systems for shrink sleeve labels, tamper-evident bands and stretch sleeve labels. We have 5,200 Axon systems in operation around the world.

Our Success Starts With Listening

Axon design and application engineers were in a meeting one day talking about all the features and capabilities introduced over the last ten years that are now standard on Axon systems.

As engineers are inclined to do, they started counting. They stopped counting when the total exceeded 100. The conversation then turned to how these innovations and improvements came about.

By their estimation, with some input from sales, well over half of these features were directly related to customer suggestions, feedback, and yes, even complaints.

This all happened because Axon listens.

Asking questions, and listening are just part of our DNA.

And experience has taught us that listening keeps us on the path of continuous improvement which helps us deliver value to our customers that is reflected on their bottom lines.

Our customers have taught us that both aesthetic and operational results are critically important, and that the foundation for every successful installation is a thorough technical evaluation and mutual understanding objectives.

This foundation can only be created by collaboration and listening.
