Laser marked PET bottle
Plastic drinks bottle with best before date marked by CO2 laser

Our CO2 lasers have found some surprising applications in the food industry. From grill marking of meat products to scribing eggshells and marking freshly baked bread rolls, our CO2 lasers are used in numerous imaginative ways. Our lasers are also employed extensively in packaging and bottling applications, where they can apply best before dates, batch codes and other information at high speeds.

Laser marks are indelible and tamper-proof, and can be applied to a variety of different packaging materials. A laser solution eliminates inks and solvents from the production line, so the whole process is cleaner and more environmentally friendly. Laser coding is now commonplace in market sectors including brewery, dairy, cereals, soft drinks, and more. Download brochure.
