How to choose the right Reusable Catering Products

• Assess how many storage containers and bottles you label daily so you can choose packs with enough labels and pens for peak service.
• Decide between day-of-the-week labels, blank labels or a mix, depending on whether you prioritise quick date coding or detailed product descriptions.
• Check label size and layout to ensure there is enough space for product name, prep date, use-by date and allergen notes.
• Consider where labels will be used, such as fridges, freezers or ambient storage, and confirm they will adhere and wipe clean in those conditions.
• Match marker pen type to your workflow, choosing non-toxic, quick-drying ink that is still easy to remove with the supplied cloths.
• Plan how reusable labels will integrate with your existing HACCP and food safety systems to keep records consistent.

Care and maintenance

• Wipe labels clean with the recommended cloths and cleaning solution after each use to prevent ghosting and ink build-up.
• Avoid abrasive pads or harsh chemicals that can damage the label surface and reduce its reusable lifespan.
• Store marker pens horizontally with caps firmly closed to prevent drying out and maintain clear, legible writing.
• Inspect labels regularly for peeling edges or surface wear and replace any that no longer adhere securely.
• Clean bottle and container surfaces thoroughly before reapplying labels to ensure strong adhesion and hygienic contact.
• Train staff on correct writing, wiping and storage procedures so reusable systems stay effective during busy service.
