Wet Glue Labelling Machine Market Size (2024 - 2029)

Wet Glue Labeling Machine Market Analysis

The wet glue labelling machine market is expected to reach a CAGR of 5.4% over the forecast period of 2021-2026. The increasing research and development initiatives by the players in the industry has enabled them to come up with papers that have high endurance, and resist disintegration. This is expected to fuel market growth over the forecast period. In September 2019, APP launched its new Arcadia label-based paper Acadia 2000 for PSA label face stock and wet glue labels. The newly launched paper has the ability to resist disintegration and rupture when exposed to water or other moisture build-up and is suitable for soft drinks, juice, coffee, beer, wine and another cold liquid food packaging, where it can withstand varying temperatures and humidity.

• The capability of wet glue labelling machines to deliver accuracy in terms of label pasting along with reducing the cost of the operations drives the market. It offers certain features such as low production costs due to a 30-50% reduction in glue usage and less labelling waste, excellent tensile strength, and stiffness for minimal curling, tearing, flagging and folding, stiffness and moisture absorbent and many more.Moreover, Stripe Glueing Systems available in most varieties, save glue Consumption up to 40% on each label.
• The higher adoption of automatic wet glue labelling machine to increase productivity drives the market. It is used for very long, wide labels and large-sized containers. Automatic wet glue labelling machine is suitable for labelling on round bottles, jars, tins, cans, containers and other round objects. The machines are capable of labelling up to 120 units per minute depending on products and label size. It requires minimum change parts and changes over time for different size of containers and suits partial as well as complete/overlapped labelling.
• The labelling market has experienced rapid growth in recent times owing to the growing importance of track and trace mechanisms required to protect product integrity. Due to the increasing stream of counterfeit products, it has led to growing significance for product authentication and awareness in the minds of the consumers This factor also drives the demand for wet glue labelling machine.
• The self-adhesive labelling market is expected to grow faster than the wet glue labelling machines market owing to comparatively higher functionalities offered by self-adhesive labelling machines. Paper labels with wet-glue are used for the labelling of reusable containers, where the wet-glue is applied to the full surface or in strips and the adhesive is only being applied to the paper immediately before labelling. The disadvantage is that the filler must work with wet glue, that is to say, contamination of the machine occurs and the handling of these labels becomes more difficult than that of self-adhesive labels.

Wet Glue Labeling Machine Industry Segmentation

The wet glue labelling machine applies labels using a glue which is liquid at room temperature. These machines usually apply labels from a stack to rigid containers such as beer or spirit bottles, etc, with other end-users such as in pharma, food sector at very high speeds by using the hot melt adhesive and water-based adhesives.
