Inkjet coders for batch, expiry and traceability codes on cosmetic bottles, jars, tubes, cartons, sleeves and labels.
Cosmetic and personal care packaging often needs small, clean, high-contrast print on premium cartons, labels, bottles and tubes. Thermal inkjet is often considered for flat cartons and labels, while continuous inkjet may be preferred for curved bottles, tubes and faster moving products.
| Typical packs | Cartons, labels, tubes, jars, bottles, sleeves and retail multi-packs |
|---|---|
| Common print | Batch, expiry, lot, product ID, QR code, barcode and small logos |
| Main considerations | Ink adhesion, code size, print location, premium pack finish, dry time and changeover |
| Related options | Cosmetic and pharmaceutical coding, QR code inkjet printers and thermal inkjet printers |
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.
Send it with your enquiry so the coder type, bracket position, print head access and ink choice can be reviewed properly.
