Innovative and Efficient! Laser and Inkjet Technologies Lead New Trends in PET Packaging Marking, Empowering Sustainable

In the packaging industry, clear and durable markings are essential for product information, brand image, and regulatory compliance. PET packaging marking equipment plays a crucial role in achieving these goals, as PET is widely used in beverage bottles, food containers, and cosmetic packaging.

Laser technology, particularly CO₂ laser marking machines, can create permanent, high-contrast barcodes with a frosted effect on PET surfaces. This enables efficient non-contact marking without damaging thin bottle walls.

For heat-sensitive PET materials, UV laser marking machines (355 nm) utilize a "cold processing" technique to produce precise, high-contrast marks while minimizing thermal impact. They are ideal for marking complex shapes, multi-layer packaging, QR codes, and fine text.

Inkjet printers offer a cost-effective and adaptable solution for PET bottles and containers. Continuous Inkjet (CIJ) systems from brands such as Syscode enable high-speed, non-contact coding. A wide range of ink options—including fast-drying, food-grade, removable, and high-contrast inks—ensure diverse production needs are met.

For example:
The Syscode S1760 achieves high-speed, high-resolution printing while reducing downtime.
