Laser Marking – The Reliable Marking Solution for Medical Products

Inkjet, hot foil, and screen printing, which were once largely employed to mark pharmaceuticals, medical devices, and associated packaging, are slowly being removed from the scene. There are several drawbacks to these methods, which include:

  • The marks created are easy to alter or remove
  • Marks may fade quickly due to long distance shipping, rough handling, or careless storage
  • These methods utilize several solvents or lubricants, making them environmentally unsustainable
  • Inkjet, hot foil, or screen printing are complex processes, consuming a lot of time and result in high labor costs

 

So, which is the most reliable and cost-effective replacement method for medical device/product marking? Which method provides an environmental friendly way of marking medical products without the aforementioned drawbacks? Laser Marking can provide a better alternative.
