In food production, clear, durable, and compliant coding is your first line of defense against recalls, waste, and lost consumer trust. With tightening regulations globally and locally (e.g., Malaysia’s JAKIM HALAL certification), businesses using soft packaging—like snack pouches, sauce sachets, or frozen meal bags—need reliable marking solutions. Enter industrial inkjet printers: versatile, cost-effective systems for high-resolution coding on tricky materials.
Why Coding is Non-Negotiable in Food & Beverage
Traceability:
- Batch numbers for recalls (e.g., allergen mishaps)
- QR codes linking to farms, ingredients, or sustainability stories
Freshness & Safety:
- Expiry dates mandated by FDA, EU, FSSC 22000
Compliance:
- HALAL certification marks (JAKIM) require permanent, non-bleeding codes
- Barcodes for supply chain tracking
The Soft Packaging Challenge
Materials like polyethylene films, biodegradable pouches, and metallized laminates require coding that:
✅ Adheres to uneven/curved surfaces without smudging
✅ Resists moisture, oils, and friction
✅ Prints high-resolution codes on heat-sensitive/thin materials
