Inkjet printer (CIJ)

Inkjet marking (CIJ – Continuous Inkjet) is one of the most widely used techniques for marking plastic containers and cans, thanks to its high speed, contactless application and ability to adapt to different plastic types and production environments.

Advantages:

  • Marks directly on the plastic surface – even on uneven or curved surfaces

  • Works on both light and dark plastic materials

  • Withstands dust, moisture and other challenging environments

  • Write batch numbers, dates, barcodes, logos and symbols in real time

  • Several ink types are available, such as quick-drying or UV-resistant

Laser marking provides a permanent marking directly into the plastic surface, without the use of ink or labels. It is an excellent choice when you need durable marking that lasts throughout the product's life cycle – even in harsh environments or during long storage periods.

Advantages:

  • Maintenance-free – no ink or foil consumption

  • Clear, sharp and legible marking even on small surfaces

  • Cannot be torn away or manipulated

  • Fast marking without contact with the product

  • Used for data matrix codes, batch numbers, logos, warning text and more

Labelling

Labelling is a very adaptable solution when you want to combine graphic elements, color, logos and variable data in one go. Labels are often applied to the front, side or top of the can – depending on the shape and application.

Advantages:

  • Great flexibility in design and information content

  • Possible to combine pre-printed design with variable information in real time

  • Works great for product labels, logistics labels or warning labels

  • Fast application, even on moving objects

  • Can be combined with TTO or CIJ for marking on the label before application

Read more about Containers & cans

In the plastics industry, labelling on containers and cans is a central part of the production and logistics flow. Whether it is chemical cans, food containers or industrial plastic packaging, clear, durable and accurate labelling is required that can withstand harsh environments and long-term handling.

Labels are used to display information such as batch numbers, content descriptions, safety markings, best-before dates or traceability codes – often in accordance with industry or regulatory requirements. They must be in place from the start and remain legible throughout the product’s lifecycle.

The challenge often lies in the materials – for example, smooth, shiny or oily surfaces – but also in the form factor, where concave surfaces, handles and structures can make marking technically demanding. Therefore, it is crucial that the marking is both robust and adapted to the product and the production line.

The choice is guided by:

  • Material and color of the container

  • Surface texture and shape (smooth, concave, round, with handle, etc.)

  • Speed ​​of production

  • Requirements for readability, durability and regulatory compliance

At Logimark, we help plastic manufacturers find the right solution for labelling both large and small plastic containers – with a focus on quality, traceability and efficiency at every stage.

Questions & Answers (FAQ)

The most common are batch numbers, best-before dates, barcodes, product information or safety markings – especially if the product contains chemicals or is to be exported.
Yes, absolutely. Depending on the type of plastic and its surface structure, we can use techniques such as inkjet or laser for direct marking. It also works on glossy or black surfaces – with the right choice of ink or laser technology.
No problem. Our systems can handle marking on round, concave and structured surfaces. We adapt the application to the shape of the product so that the marking ends up correctly.
You don't need to have the answers – that's where we come in. We conduct a needs analysis based on product, material, environment and production speed, and develop a solution that suits your specific conditions.
No, it's not necessary. Our marking technologies – such as ink or laser – can apply text and codes to moving products at full speed, without disrupting the flow.
Absolutely. Labelling is a flexible option, especially if you want to display graphics, barcodes and text. We also offer systems where the label is printed and applied in one step.
You can rest assured – we offer fast support, service agreements and spare parts when you need them. Plus, we have technicians across the country who can help on site or remotely.
