CIJ – the solution for multi-material package printing in the F&B industry?
11 January 2024
Almost everywhere you look there’s a variety of packaging materials – from aluminium cans to glass bottles, cardboard boxes, and plastic containers – in a range of shapes and sizes.
The reason for this? Packaging is a massively important part to a product, and there are many factors such as hygiene, customer convenience, stackability and design, cost and more recently sustainability to consider. Finding a balance between protecting products, adhering to regulations, and promoting sustainable production is crucial, while keeping costs in check and maintaining high-quality standards.For the food and beverage industry in particular there is always a need to print codes and expiry dates onto food items directly, or onto the packaging. One factor that isn’t always considered is whether the product surface is suitable for printing. To combat this issue, LEIBINGER continuous inkjet (CIJ) printers offer a versatile solution, capable of printing on virtually any surface. From marking dates and codes on cans, bottles, flow wrap, eggs, and egg boxes, LEIBINGER CIJ printers provide a reliable and efficient solution for various applications.
Despite the large variety of packaging options available in the F&B industry, LEIBINGER CIJ can help to keep things simple for your business – one printing technology can be the solution to many issues. CIJ printing is faster and more environmentally friendly than applying labels, and unlike laser printing, they require no additional equipment meaning they can be easily adapted when production lines switch from one product to another – the same printer can handle varying sizes, formats, or substrates. There’s also a range of ink types, including invisible UV and food-grade inks available to cater diverse requirements.
The world of packaging is aways changing – let CIJ printers provide your business with an efficient, sustainable, and cost-efficient way of solving the multi-material problems in your industry.
