Reliable Coding & Printing for Beverage Production
Beverage production runs at very high speeds across glass bottles, plastic containers, and aluminium cans. Each surface presents different challenges for consistent code application.
Condensation, washdowns, and temperature changes are constant in bottling and canning environments. These conditions impact ink adhesion, drying time, and code durability.
Codico delivers coding and marking systems designed for beverage production, ensuring stable, legible codes across fast-moving lines while maintaining efficiency and uptime.
Why Coding & Marking Matters in the Beverage Industry
Coding ensures traceability across the beverage supply chain, supporting stock control, distribution accuracy, and recall management. Clear codes allow products to move efficiently through production, warehousing, and retail.
Beverage packaging requires accurate codes such as production dates, batch numbers, line identifiers, and barcodes. These must remain legible despite handling, transport, and storage conditions.
Codico solutions support:
Common Beverage Coding & Marking Applications
Beverage products are packaged in a wide range of formats, each requiring coding that remains clear in wet and high-throughput environments. Primary packaging includes bottles and cans, while secondary packaging includes cartons, trays, and multipacks. Each stage requires accurate coding for identification and logistics.
Materials and formats include:
Coding must remain legible despite condensation, abrasion, and continuous handling across the production line.
Regulatory Compliance & Traceability
Beverage manufacturers must ensure accurate and consistent coding to support traceability, quality control, and regulatory requirements. Coding plays a key role in maintaining product integrity across the supply chain.
Key requirements include:
