Reliable Coding & Printing for the Food Industry
Food manufacturers operate across a wide range of packaging formats, from flexible films to rigid containers and outer cases. Each material requires a different coding approach to ensure clarity and consistency.
Production lines run at high speeds and often involve moisture, temperature changes, and continuous handling. These conditions impact ink performance and code durability.
Codico delivers reliable coding and marking solutions for food manufacturing, ensuring clear, consistent codes across all packaging types while maintaining efficiency and production uptime.
Why Coding & Marking Matters in the Food Industry
In food production, coding is essential for traceability, safety, and compliance. Clear and accurate codes ensure products can be tracked throughout the supply chain and managed effectively in the event of a recall.
Codes applied to food packaging typically include batch numbers, expiry dates, best-before dates, and barcodes used for retail and logistics.
