Shrink Sleeve & Tamper Banding for Household Cleaners

Axon supports home care manufacturers with systems designed to handle everything from standard spray bottles to oversized gallons and multipacks. Whether you’re labeling disinfectants, degreasers, or laundry detergents, our solutions ensure labels remain secure and legible—even when exposed to moisture, chemicals, and consumer handling.

We offer both standard and custom systems to accommodate unique bottle shapes and wide film applications:

• Aurora® Wide – Mid-speed system designed for full-body sleeves or tamper bands on containers up to 9.8" in diameter

• EZ-Series – Flexible low- to mid-speed option ideal for multiple container sizes and tamper band formats

• ThermoPoint® Steam Tunnels – Engineered to deliver consistent shrink results on complex shapes like trigger spray bottles

These systems are ideal for brands requiring reliable, high-coverage labeling on larger household chemical containers.

Labeling Solutions for Automotive Fluids & Lubricants

In the automotive sector, container variety and product tampering are major concerns. From fuel additives and pre-mixed gas cans to refrigerant bottles and car detailing sprays, Axon’s shrink and stretch sleeve applicators provide:

• Precise fit and durability for uniquely shaped bottles

• Secure tamper-evident protection to guard against counterfeiting

• Label adhesion and sleeve coverage that withstands oil, grease, and moisture

Stretch sleeve systems such as the Styrotech® ST-1550 and ST-2650 offer a cost-effective, high-speed solution for rigid jugs and containers where pressure-sensitive labels may fall short. Shrink systems such as the Aurora® Mid-Speed and EZ-Series provide scalable speed and format flexibility to meet evolving production demands.

Tough Labeling Solutions for Outdoor Chemical Products & Beyond

Lawn and garden products—like pesticides, fertilizers, and herbicides—are exposed to weather, dirt, and handling, making label durability essential. Axon’s shrink and stretch sleeve solutions are designed to stand up to these harsh conditions while maintaining legibility and brand presence.

For manufacturers producing a wide variety of container sizes, our systems deliver flexibility, accuracy, and uptime. The Styrotech® ST-2650 stretch sleeve applicator, for example, uses servo motion control for precise placement, on-the-fly speed changes, and height adjustments—making it ideal for jugs and bottles of varying shapes.

Axon also excels in solving complex labeling challenges—including textured or non-traditional containers that are not well-suited for pressure-sensitive labels.
