Flexible marking solutions
10 April 2017
Goplasticpallets, an independent distributor of returnable plastic transit packaging (RPTP), has invested in a new thermal transfer machine. The purchase comes in response to growing customer demand for branded totes and trays – in particular, small quantities of boxes with printed identification markings.
With the new Coditherm H-PAD, which is made in Italy by Eidos, Goplasticpallets can offer customers greater flexibility, printing in batches as small as a few hundred units, within two or three working days. Operatives can now accurately print logos and identification markings such as part product numbers, barcodes, SKU and QR codes, onsite immediately from order processing.
The Coditherm H-PAD, a pneumatic printing machine, uses high-power, thermal transference to print onto recessed areas of structured plastic containers, such as Automotive KLTs, Euro containers, food-grade boxes and bail-arm crates. It can imprint on diverse materials, including PE (Polyethelene) and PP (Polyproplene) and within very small margins.
MD, Jim Hardisty, says: “We’ve seen a growing demand from customers across all industries for a printing service that not only responds to their needs quickly, but enables them to purchase containers and totes in small quantities, with specific identification markings. Having the new printer onsite means we will be able to offer customers the flexible service they need and deliver within 2-3 working days.”
Goplasticpallets stocks more than 115 varieties of small containers, totes, trays and compatible accessories, in an array of colours, configurations and sizes.
