In the fiercely competitive consumer goods market, product packaging serves as the first gateway to attract customers. Thanks to its lightweight, transparency, cost-effectiveness, and high flexibility, film packaging is widely used in industries such as food, personal care, pharmaceuticals, and electronics. However, selecting the right marking equipment for film packaging remains a critical challenge—how to achieve clear, attractive, and durable markings such as production dates, batch numbers, QR codes, or logos on soft, flexible film materials.
Leading Marking Technologies for Film Packaging
1. CO2 Laser Marking Machine — The Premium Choice for Permanent Marking
Advantages: High precision, permanent marking, consumable-free, low maintenance, and non-contact processing.
Suitable Materials: A wide range of plastic films, especially PET, PE, PP, and PVC.
2. Thermal Inkjet Printers (TIJ)— Flexible and Efficient
Advantages: High-resolution printing, fast marking speed, and relatively low initial investment.
Suitable Applications: Snack bags, bakery packaging, and daily chemical products.
3. Thermal Transfer Overprinter (TTO) — The Industry Standard for Reliability
Advantages: Outstanding print quality, high reliability, and ability to print a wide variety of information.
Suitable Applications: Vertical Form-Fill-Seal (VFFS) and pouch packaging machines. Perfect for soft packaging of puffed foods, frozen products, and pet food.
Film packaging continues to dominate the packaging industry, and with it comes the demand for advanced coding and marking equipment. Whether you choose CO2 laser, TIJ printers, or TTO systems, the right solution ensures your packaging delivers not only compliance but also confidence, reliability, and brand recognition.
