The use of special UV-readable ink
from Linx Printing Technologies is
playing a key role in ensuring the
authenticity and full traceability of a
range of bottles produced by rigid
plastics packaging manufacturer
RPC Containers Llantrisant.
RPC Llantrisant manufactures the bottles in eight sizes from 25 to 200ml. Linx Clear UV-readable ink 1121 is then used to code both the bottles and their caps inline using Linx 4900 continuous ink jet printers. The code includes a batch number, date and time, and the line on which the bottle was produced.
It acts as a covert security feature which, in the event of any problem or quality issue, enables the complete pack to be traced back through the entire filling, supply and manufacturing chain. The Linx 4900 was selected for its speed, reliability, and portability.
