Markem-Imaje, the global provider of end-to-end supply chain solutions and industrial marking and coding systems, has launched the Ultraply ribbons and self-adhesive labels range for its renowned Print and Apply (P&A) labelers. Markem-Imaje is the world’s leading supplier of P&A technology, with decades of experience in its innovation; its Ultraply brand comprises four ribbon and labels solutions to cover all case and pallet labeling needs.
With the exponential growth in e-commerce and direct-to-consumer (DTC) models, there is an ever-growing need for producing high-quality phone scannable 2D barcodes, a technology where Markem-Imaje P&A labelers excel, alongside offering other advantages.
The range is designed to optimize use of Markem-Imaje P&A labelers and to offer the best quality in the market from basic to complex case and pallet operations. Besides delivering readable and durable 1D and 2D codes, compliant with the most stringent food regulations, Ultraply consumables are designed to maximize printhead life, cut scrap and use less resources than other P&A consumables, while being completely safe to handle.
Among the four Ultraply consumables solutions, the Premium ribbons and labels are designed for the most demanding applications such as those requiring high levels of rub or solvent resistance and are ideally suited for synthetic label materials.
Ultraply Performance consumables offer a high level of versatility to produce durable codes on a wide range of materials, while the Ultraply Prime are the most cost-effective in the range, while also ensuring reliable code quality and optimized performance. Ultraply Direct are self-adhesive labels intended for high-speed labeling without compromising on quality.
“Especially given the ever-increasing importance of e-commerce, case and pallet coding require ever faster production speeds and the ability to produce high-quality phone scannable codes like QRs,” says Andy Gray, Marketing Manager at Markem-Imaje. “The Ultraply consumables range perfectly caters to today’s business demands while offering flexibility for different labeling needs and budgets.”
