Plastic- Printing on Plastic Bottles

 

The shape, size and composition of both clear and coloured plastic bottles and enclosures are constantly changing. Codes on these containers can be intended for consumer use, such as ‘best before’ or “use by” dates, or include production data used for supply chain management. Fortunately there are several robust technology options for coding onto plastic bottles. Videojet Code Assurance solutions help to simplify your processes and empower you to get the right code in the right place, on the right product, time after time .
