The bottle security tag is one of the EAS security tags, which can basically be widely used in major supermarkets or wineries to prevent theft of wine or other bottled drinks.
Let’s introduce some knowledge about bottle security tags, including the classification and use of the tag.
Classification of bottle security tags
Bottle security tag with wire rope
Bottle security tag with wire rope refers to a tag composed of ABS material tag and steel wire rope.
The shape of the tag can be divided into round, square and triangular.This shape is generally related to the difference in frequency, because if the frequency is RF 8.2M, the coil is flat and suitable for placing it in a relatively flat tag. If the frequency is AM 58K, the coil is long and suitable to put into the triangle or strip tag.
The tag rope can be customized according to the size of the bottle. Generally, the length of the conventional wine bottle tag is 17 cm, and the length of the larger oil bottle tag is 42 cm. Of course, the length of the baby formula rope is longer, because the jar is bigger.
Below are the different types of different bottle security tags with wire rope.

Plastic wine bottle security cap tag
Plastic wine bottle security cap tag is directly on the wine bottle like a lid. This kind of security cap can be divided into AM wine bottle security tag and RF wine bottle security tag.
Plastic wine bottle security cap tag can also be adjusted according to the size of the bottle. Here are some styles of bottle security cap tag.
The advantage of the bottle security cap tag is that the safety factor is higher, because the safety cap is hard to remove when it is fixed on the bottle, and it must be opened with a tag remover.

Use of bottle security tags
The bottle security tag is one of the EAS safety tags, so its use method is the same as other safety tags. After opening the tag with a tag remover, put the tag on the bottle, and then fix the tag to be suitble for the bottle size.The size of the bottle safety tag can also be adjusted according to the bottle caliber.
Because bottle security tags are generally made of plastic, they are not suitable for use in a frozen environment. In a frozen environment, they will be damaged by freezing. But it doesn't matter in a cold storage environment.
The bottle security hard tags are all magnetic and need a magnetic tag remover to open.
But if it is a soft sticker for bottle safety labels, it needs a professional EAS deactivator to decode it. AM soft labels need AM decoders to decode, and RF soft labels need RF decoders to decode.
EAS deactivator like the following,

General supermarkets will use both security hard tags and soft labels at the same time.Therefore, there will be a hard tag remover and a soft label decoder installed beside the cashier counter in the supermarket.
Summary
Bottle security tags can be divided into bottle security hard tags and bottle safety soft labels.
In terms of safety comparison, hard tags have a higher safety factor than soft labels.
But the hard tag can be reused until the tag is broken, while the soft label can only be used once.
The price of bottle security hard tags is higher than that of soft labels. The average price of hard labels is more than $1, while the price of soft labels is less than $0.02.
You can decide which label to use to protect the bottle safety system according to your budget and preferences.
