Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Harbour View Bistro in Aberdeen was constantly battling with inconsistent food labelling. Staff were using masking tape and  pens, which looked unprofessional and  left a sticky mess on their expensive polycarbonate containers after washing.

"Our pot washer used to spend the first hour of his shift just scraping old labels and  glue off containers. It was a nightmare. These labels from Hygiplas just disappear in the dishwasher. It’s made our whole clean-down process quicker and  our containers have never looked better."

Robert McGregor – Head Chef

The switch to dissolvable prep labels cut container cleaning time by an estimated 25% and  eliminated relabelling errors during busy weekend services.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Choose a clean, dry wall near your prep or storage area for easy access.
  • Use suitable screws and  wall plugs (not supplied) to securely mount the dispenser.
  • Load each colour-coded roll into its compartment and  feed the first label through its slot.
  • Ensure the transparent cover is clicked shut to shield the labels from moisture and  splashes.

Keeping It Going

  • Simply wipe the plastic dispenser with a damp, soapy cloth to keep it clean.
  • Check your label stock levels at a glance through the transparent cover so you can reorder in good time.
  • Store any spare label rolls in a cool, dry cupboard to protect them from humidity.
  • For the best dissolving action, make sure labelled containers are fully submerged during washing.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Labelling System

Not sure which labelling solution is best for your operation? Here’s a quick guide to help you decide.

Hygiene & Labour

Think about the time your team spends scrubbing old labels. A dissolvable system eliminates this task, improving hygiene and  freeing up staff.

Kitchen Speed

In a fast-paced kitchen, a colour-coded system allows for instant identification, reducing errors and  speeding up the prep line.

Compliance & Safety

Does your system satisfy EHO requirements? Labels with clear, pre-printed fields for dates and  contents ensure you're always compliant.

Readability

Your labels are useless if you can't read them. Ensure the surface works well with standard pens and  won't smudge in a humid kitchen.

All-In-One Solutions

A starter kit that includes a dispenser and  labels is often the most cost-effective way to implement a new, consistent system across your kitchen.

How Do Water Soluble Food Labels Actually Work?

It might seem like a bit of kitchen magic, but the technology behind these labels is brilliantly simple. They are made from a unique food-safe paper and  a special adhesive that are both designed to break down completely when fully immersed in water. Think of it like a sugar cube dissolving in a cup of tea. Once the label hits the water in your pot wash or sink, it doesn't just peel off – the fibres and  adhesive separate and  dissolve into tiny, harmless particles that simply wash away down the drain. This means your containers are left truly, hygienically clean with no sticky patches left behind to trap bacteria.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Busy Restaurants & Gastropubs: To streamline kitchen prep, enforce FIFO rules, and  simplify compliance during EHO inspections.
  • Cafés & Sandwich Bars: Perfect for labelling prepped fillings, salads, and  grab-and-go items, ensuring absolute freshness.
  • School & Care Home Kitchens: For maintaining strict allergen controls and  food rotation in high-volume catering environments.
  • Catering Companies & Event Kitchens: To keep track of food prepped off-site and  ensure everything is dated correctly for functions.
