These containers require clear, durable codes such as expiry dates, batch numbers, barcodes, and traceability information. Because rigid containers come in many shapes, sizes, and surface finishes, coding systems must deliver consistent, high quality results on flat, curved, textured, or glossy surfaces. Reliable coding ensures every container is compliant, traceable, and ready for distribution, even in demanding production environments.
Expert solutions for
PLASTIC RIGID CONTAINERS
Our solutions for coding on rigid plastic containers ensures consistent identification, compliance, and reliable tracking across varied shapes, finishes, and production environments.
Coding and marking on plastic rigid containers is essential across food and beverage, household goods, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.
Printing on plastic rigid containers presents several challenges that can affect code quality, production efficiency, and regulatory compliance.
Plastics vary widely in surface energy, which impacts ink adhesion and durability. Many containers have curved or uneven surfaces, making it difficult to maintain consistent print clarity. In food, beverage, and personal care environments, containers may be exposed to moisture, condensation, oils, or handling abrasion, all of which can degrade poorly applied codes.
Our coding and marking solutions are engineered to overcome these challenges. CIJ printers deliver fast, non contact coding ideal for curved or irregular rigid plastics. TIJ systems provide crisp, high resolution text and barcodes for flat surfaces and lids. PIJ and print bars offer precision for variable data. Laser marking provides permanent, tamper proof codes for rigid containers.
