Printing on Paperboard Packaging

Industrial printers for printing on paperboard packaging

Paperboard packages offer versatility across a number of industries. Dry shelf-stable foods, cookies, pastas and cereals utilize this packaging option as well as secondary packaging for pharmaceutical and personal care products. Paperboard is often also used as primary packaging for industrial parts.

Videojet offers a broad range of marking options depending on the application requirements. Solutions include everything from high-speed continuous inkjet (CIJ) for fast production lines to laser marking systems for permanent, high-resolution marking to thermal inkjet (TIJ) printing that delivers multiple code options including a selection of fonts, characters sizes and bar codes.

Laser marking on PET

When laser marking on plastic, particularly PET bottles, a CO2 laser can deliver a unique interaction with the plastic surface. This interaction yields a frosted effect on a bottle or container to produce visible, permanent codes. Choosing the right laser requires matching the laser wavelength to the PET’s thickness. To make this match, Videojet laser experts help evaluate substrates, provide marked samples, and make recommendations to meet code and speed requirements. Videojet application expertise in printing on PET bottles spans many years and includes deep knowledge of trends such as lightweighting.
