Requiring no inks, ribbons or applicators, while being
maintenance free and achieving almost 100% production uptime, this process provides significant benefits over traditional
print-and-apply labeling techniques, company says. This fully integrated system replaces the
conventional self adhesive, thermal transfer printed labels and the
large character inkjet printing applied to outer cases. It works by
applying a robust, inert inorganic coating onto the specific label area
of the outer case as the packaging is being produced. On the final
production line, a computer controlled low level energy beam emitted
from an industrial CO2 marking laser ‘writes' the required label data
onto the mark area causing a colour change reaction of the coating from
white to black.
