The first known labels showed up around 1700 as seen on small medical containers and wine bottles. Wooden presses were used to make the paper labels that were then glued to products. In 1798 the process changed with onset of lithography. From 1850 to 1860 color printing improved to make creative labels selling products better. In 1935 the self adhesive labels changed the industry even more. In the 1960's new adhesives did even more advancement in the industry. In the 70's electronic labels made it possible to hold lots of information on the labels with the bar code.
Amana labels and logos have changed with the times and over the years while symbolizing " core Amana values, growth, and longevity" and dedication to the craft. Many early products from calico fabric to refrigerators proudly donned the Amana label.
