Coding on all packaging is an industry standard. However, packaging can lead to difficulties when it comes to getting your specific coding on in a clear and concise method.
Take this example, a popular powdered mix company produces some of the country’s finest baking and drink mixes, however, they’ve been receiving complaints about the inferior quality of the product identification on each of the bags. The company had originally outfitted its VFFS baggers with in-line inkjet coders. Unfortunately, these types of coders simply were not up to the task.
The inkjet systems are messy to maintain and fill, causing blurry and often times completely illegible words and numbers. This isn’t the image that the well-established company wants to promote to their customers. The solution, a superior variable imaging solution, and one that fit within their budget, and they needed it quickly.
It was determined that the cost-effective effective FlexPackPRO® 130 Series TTO (thermal transfer overprinter) was a clear choice, and within weeks the inferior printers were replaced and the lines were refitted with custom brackets and FPP 130i units.
For all your coding packaging needs, the FPP 130 series generates perfect 300 dpi resolution product information on every bag in any food-industry related facility.
