Smudge-proof printing on plastic
Plastics can be labeled very well with solvent-based inks. The inkjet printers use smudge-proof inks in different colour shades.
Coding or labeling?
We help you choose the right technology
Whether products, primary and secondary packaging or technical components: As a versatile material, plastic is used in many industries. Its areas of application include PET bottles, films, food packaging, household appliances, canisters, floor coverings, electrical insulation, pipes and profiles. Due to the diversity of plastic products and packaging, there is no standard solution for their labeling. Rather, it is a matter of carefully selecting the right marking technology. We help you select the right system and check the nature of the objects to be labeled. After all, it makes a difference whether you want to label profiles, flexible bags or chrome-plated plastic parts. Do you have other individual requirements for the labeling - should it be particularly small and unobtrusive or very large and visible at all times? Whether your products are further processed and have to withstand oil, water, heat or chemicals in the production process is also included in the consultation.
Labeling plastic packaging
With our labeling systems, you can automatically apply product labels to plastic packaging, for example. This process is particularly gentle with the non-contact tamp blow process - and at an impressive speed.
Coding extruded plastics
Our inkjet printers mark plastic hoses and pipes with your data. Innovative functions, such as precise metre marking and text editing during printing, simplify your labeling process.
Automatic labeling of plastic
Our automatic labeling systems apply labels to any plastic surface. Thanks to their modular design, the devices are very flexible and apply your labels reliably, even to difficult objects.
Small and large character coding
Whether large or small fonts, our ink-based industrial printers label your products quickly, cost-effectively and contact-free.
Consumables always in stock
We have high-contrast inks for PP, PVC, polystyrene, foams and other plastics available at all times. They are quick-drying and have excellent adhesion, high colour intensity and lightfastness.

Types of plastic
Plastic is a versatile material. Depending on their mechanical and thermal behaviour, there are three main groups: Thermoplastics, thermosets and elastomers. Most plastics fall into the thermoplastics group, for example:
- Polyethylene (PE)
- Polypropylene (PP)
- Polyamide (PA)
- Polyethylenterephthalate (PET)
- Polyoxymethylene (POM)
- Polystyrol (PS)
- Polyvinylchloride (PVC)
- Polycarbonate (PC)
- Polyphenylenether (PPE)
They differ in their mouldability, elasticity, breaking strength, temperature and heat resistance, among other things. Plastic is used in almost all industries and can be found in primary and secondary packaging, consumer goods of all kinds, insulation and technical components for cars, electronics and machines.
