Building materials and trade product coding
Inkjet batch marking and large character case coding for sacks, boxes, trays, bags and industrial packs used in building, trade and manufacturing supply chains.
Application fit
Batch and product ID marks for tough packaging
Building material and trade product packs may need large text, batch IDs, product references, destination marks or traceability codes. Large character inkjet and industrial inkjet systems can reduce pre-printed packaging and support variable product runs.
- Large text, batch, lot, product ID and destination marks
- Coding on cartons, sacks, boxes, bags, trays and outer cases
- Options for porous packaging, rough surfaces and larger print heights
- Mounting support for conveyors, product guides and case handling
| Typical packs | Sacks, bags, cartons, boxes, trays, outer cases and trade packs |
|---|---|
| Common print | Batch, lot, product ID, destination, handling mark and barcode |
| Main considerations | Print height, surface porosity, dust, pack stability, code contrast and line speed |
| Related options | Large character inkjet coders, carton coding and industrial inkjet printers |
Specification notes
What to confirm before choosing a coder
A good recommendation starts with the product material, required code, speed, code position, production environment and whether the code is being applied to the primary pack or outer packaging.

Make the outer-pack mark useful through dispatch
For sacks, cartons or trade packs, decide which face remains visible once the product is stacked, wrapped or prepared for dispatch. Show the intended text and any machine-readable mark at that position. The coding proposal should address the real presentation of the pack rather than an isolated flat sample.
Describe variations in pack shape and surface condition at the marking point. Include filled examples or an appropriate representation where the pack changes shape in use. Ask the assessment to identify how product guidance, printhead access and the required mark size fit the proposed line position.
- Dispatch view
- Check the code position on the pack in its normal transport or storage arrangement.
- Surface examples
- Include the ordinary range of packaging finishes and conditions expected in production.
Should large text and a barcode share the same acceptance check?
Define their uses separately. Human legibility and the required performance of a machine-readable mark should both be assessed for the intended handling route.
