Date

East Rand Plastics, a Johannesburg-based manufacturer of PVC refuse bags, found that their customers were disputing the number of plastic bags within the packs they supplied.  Each pack contained a manually inserted date slip which was automatically discarded when the pack was opened- meaning that the number of bags within the pack could not be verified or traced back to the factory.

Pyrotec PackMark recommended a Markem-Imaje 9040 Yellow printer which would be used to print on the white refuse bag line, and five Markem-Imaje 9040 White Contrast printers for the black refuse bag lines. The date of manufacture, batch and machine numbers were included on all packs to allow for easy traceability and prevent customer disputes.

After numerous trials with different coding suppliers, East Rand Plastics selected Pyrotec PackMark’s range of Markem-Imaje printers as the best and most cost-effective solution.
