Labeling Bottles

(OP)
I was looking for some new ideas and/or suggestions of attaching HMIS labels to spray bottles.  We currently try to laminate the stickers then use packing tape over that on the bottles, or we use zip ties to attach the lamented label to the neck of the bottle.  The poblem is when the product is a cleaner or degreaser it will wipe off the print on the labels or for the tags that are attached they get knocked off.  So it is a constant battle trying to maintain lables on bottles.  So any other better methods?

RE: Labeling Bottles

Have labels with an clear overlay. That is how OEM's make decals exposed to fuel and oil.

Plastic bottles are usually made of polyethylene and they have problems printing on the surface due to high surface tension in the material and actually have to flame treat the bottle so that printing will stick to the bottle.
