Through this process, Waters Edge found they were losing opportunities and wasting time and money on their labels. Minimums and bulk price breaks meant they had to choose between buying more than necessary or paying more per label Once the label is printed, the information is all but set in stone. If information changed, a whole new order was required. The w

AWT Labels & Packaging is expanding its RFID capabilities to better serve customers across the healthcare, engineered, and consumer markets. By broadening our RFID expertise for both existing and prospective customers, we transform traditional labels into smart data carriers—enhancing efficiency, visibility, and confidence across the entire supply chain, from clinical labeling to consumer applications. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology elevates labeling solutions by adding real-time visibility and intelligence to products. By embedding RFID into labels and component parts, customers can automatically track items throughout production, distribution, and end use. Eliminating manual scanning reduces errors, improves accuracy, and saves time. The result is stronger inventory control, improved traceability and compliance, faster workflows, and more reliable data to support informed decision-making.

For founders Michael and Perry, the launch of Wild Mannered wasn’t just a new name; it was a new expression of identity, culture, and community. But as their brand evolved, they quickly realized that a powerful story needs a package that tells it. With the support of AWT Labels & Packaging’s ASL team, they transformed their updated brand vision into a physical product that felt just as intentional and expressive as the story behind it. A Brand Rooted in Representation Originally launched as Neat, the company was known for its ready-to-drink soju cocktails. But over time, Michael and Perry found that the name “Neat” didn’t quite capture the cultural specificity or personality they wanted the brand to reflect—a modern beverage brand inspired by cherished memories of sharing drinks through the lens of being Asian Americans. As a brand, they value representation and embracing identity, community, and quality with no exceptions or shortcuts.  &
