Glass bottle washing and delabelling system

Effortlessly transform used bottles into pristine, reusable containers with this integrated washing and delabelling system, minimizing waste and lowering costs while maintaining high-speed production efficiency.

Washes, Delabels, and Labels Returnable Bottles

The Z-Italia Returnable Bottle System from Della Toffola Group innovatively combines washing, delabeling, and labeling in a seamless operation ideal for beverage manufacturers aiming to lower costs and environmental impact. This system employs an ultra-precise laser or blade cut for delabeling and utilizes a proprietary labeling technique that minimizes glue usage by applying adhesive only on the overlap, leveraging surface tension. Designed for industries like food and beverage, glass manufacturing, and recycling, it processes a wide range of bottles—beer, wine, milk, and more—at speeds from 8,000 to 72,000 bottles per hour. Integrated into existing production lines, it supports REFPET and glass bottles, optimizing your packaging operations with its environmental and cost-saving efficiencies.

Benefits

  • Reduces raw material costs through bottle reuse and efficient label application.
  • Minimizes environmental impact with low glue consumption and optimized recycling processes.
  • Enhances integration into existing lines with compatibility for various bottle types and labeling technologies.
  • Supports high-speed production, handling up to 72,000 bottles per hour.
  • Decreases operation and maintenance costs with automated, precise laser and blade label removal systems.
