Many food products are bagged and require marking. This includes flour, sugar, coffee, tea, baked goods and many more. The bags can be paper or plastic, small or large. Food packaging normally involves high volume, high throughput and demands reliable solutions and partners. The production lines cannot afford to stop and the marking solution needs to be able to keep pace while conforming to strict food production controls such as limiting solvent use and exposure, running clean without contaminating production and 99.9% uptime expectations.
