1. Pharmaceutical & Healthcare Industry

• Common Use Cases:
  • Small drug containers (e.g., 2-10mL vials for injectables, oral liquid mini-bottles, or eye drop vials).
  • Medical devices (e.g., small bottles for disinfectant solutions, wound care liquids, or diagnostic reagents).
• Core Requirements:
  • Regulatory Compliance: Must include mandatory information such as drug name (generic + trade name), active ingredients, dosage strength, lot number (for traceability), expiration date, manufacturer name, and storage conditions (e.g., “Store at 2-8°C”).
  • Durability: Resistant to moisture, alcohol (used for disinfection), and fading—labels must remain legible throughout the product’s shelf life.
  • Safety Warnings: Prominent symbols or text for high-risk products (e.g., “For Intravenous Use Only,” “Do Not Freeze,” or “Keep Out of Reach of Children”).
• Example: A 5mL vial of insulin will have a label clearly marking the concentration (e.g., “100 units/mL”), expiration date, and a “Refrigerate After Opening” note.

2. Laboratory & Scientific Research

• Common Use Cases:
  • Reagent bottles (e.g., 1-50mL bottles for chemicals, solvents, or buffers).
  • Sample storage vials (e.g., cryovials for biological samples like blood, cells, or DNA).
• Core Requirements:
  • Extreme Environment Resistance: Labels must withstand ultra-low temperatures (e.g., -196°C for liquid nitrogen storage, -80°C for freezers) or high temperatures (e.g., autoclaving for sterile reagents) without peeling or smudging.
  • High Information Density: Even on tiny surfaces, labels need to include sample ID, collection date, researcher name, and hazard info (e.g., “Corrosive,” “Flammable,” or “Biohazard”).
  • Material Compatibility: Ultra-thin materials to prevent bottles from jamming in centrifuges or test tube racks.
• Example: A 10mL glass vial of a PCR buffer will have a label with the buffer type, pH value, preparation date, and a “Non-Toxic but Irritating” warning.

3. Cosmetics & Personal Care

• Common Use Cases:
  • Mini cosmetic containers (e.g., 5-15mL bottles for serums, essences, perfumes, or facial oils).
  • Travel-sized products (e.g., 10mL shampoo/conditioner bottles, 8mL hand sanitizer mini-bottles).
• Core Requirements:
  • Aesthetic Appeal: Customizable designs (e.g., matte finishes, metallic inks, or transparent materials) to align with brand image (e.g., luxury perfumes use gold-foil labels).
  • Consumer-Focused Info: Clear listing of ingredients (to avoid allergies), usage instructions (e.g., “Apply 2 drops morning/night”), shelf life (e.g., “6M After Opening”), and skin type compatibility (e.g., “For Sensitive Skin”).
  • Durability: Resistant to oil (for skincare products) and water (for bathroom use) to prevent label deterioration.
• Example: A 10mL facial serum bottle might have a minimalist label with the product name (“Hyaluronic Acid Serum”), key ingredients, and a “Paraben-Free” badge.

4. Food & Beverage Industry

• Common Use Cases:
  • Mini beverage bottles (e.g., 30-100mL craft spirits, fruit syrups, or single-serve juice bottles).
  • Specialty food containers (e.g., 50mL jars of truffle oil, hot sauce, or honey; 20mL edible oil samples).
• Core Requirements:
  • Food Safety Compliance: Must include product name, net weight, ingredients list (in descending order), production date, expiration date, and manufacturer address. For allergens (e.g., nuts, soy), labels need bold warnings (e.g., “May Contain Traces of Peanuts”).
  • Marketing Function: Eye-catching designs to attract consumers (e.g., holiday-themed labels for mini wines, or “Limited Edition” badges for specialty syrups).
• Example: A 50mL bottle of artisanal olive oil will have a label listing the origin (e.g., “Tuscany, Italy”), harvest year, and a “Cold-Pressed” claim.

5. E-Cigarettes & Vape Industry

• Common Use Cases:
  • Small e-liquid bottles (e.g., 10-30mL bottles for vape devices).
• Core Requirements:
  • Regulatory Mandates: Clear marking of nicotine concentration (e.g., “6mg/mL”), ingredients (e.g., propylene glycol, vegetable glycerin, flavorings), and strict warnings (e.g., “Contains Nicotine—Highly Addictive,” “Not for Sale to Minors Under 21”).
  • Child-Resistant Reminders: Labels may include instructions for child-resistant caps (e.g., “Push Down and Twist to Open”).
• Example: A 15mL e-liquid bottle will have a label with the flavor (“Mint”), nicotine strength, and a large “Nicotine is a Toxic Substance” warning.

6. Industrial & Specialty Chemicals

• Common Use Cases:
  • Small chemical bottles (e.g., 10-100mL bottles for lubricants, adhesives, or industrial cleaning agents).
• Core Requirements:
  • Hazard Symbols: Compliance with global standards like GHS (Globally Harmonized System) to mark hazards (e.g., flame symbols for flammables, skull-and-crossbones for toxins).
