Get the post type name while looping

Hi, gurus.

I’m currently working on a search page that searches all the related posts from custom post types (Projects, News, Customer Service) I’ve created. When searching is successful, I’d like to output them like the following:

==

Projects:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Phasellus ullamcorper elit at ex rutrum dignissim. Proin posuere ante ut aliquet sollicitudin. Suspendisse scelerisque libero sem […]

Projects:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Phasellus ullamcorper elit at ex rutrum dignissim. Proin posuere ante ut aliquet sollicitudin. Suspendisse scelerisque libero sem […]

Customer Service:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Phasellus ullamcorper elit at ex rutrum dignissim. Proin posuere ante ut aliquet sollicitudin. Suspendisse scelerisque libero sem […]

News:
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Phasellus ullamcorper elit at ex rutrum dignissim. Proin posuere ante ut aliquet sollicitudin. Suspendisse scelerisque libero sem […]

==

Yup. Very simple as you see.

The problem I’m having now is ‘how to get the name of custom post type that a post belongs to’ such as Projects, News, and Customer Service. I think I should pass a ID of the current post as a parameter to get its post type information but I don’t know which one. Is there a function that does the job for me?

I will be digging WP codex deeper while waiting for wise answers.

Thanks!
