Printing on Bottles

Linx bottle coding solutions are suitable for coding of expiration dates and batch numbers, and are designed to print directly onto PET bottles, plastic or glass bottles in almost any orientation. With a range of pre-programmed codes, they can also print barcodes, datamatrix and qr codes onto bottle labels. Get quality codes with our Linx printers for all your printing on bottles requirements. 

With many years of experience in creating coding and marking equipment, we understand that bottle printing presents a number of unique challenges, from difficult to adhere surfaces and wet environments, to small circumference marking areas. Our products have been specifically designed to meet these challenges.

Linx bottle coders are used in a wide range of industries from beverage and cosmetics, to FMCG household products and chemical bottling. Our expertise in product and packaging marking & identification can help you to reduce costs and improve production rates.

Automate bottle printing

Bottle based production often requires high volumes, at Linx Printing Technologies we realize that reliable and consistent product marking is critical as rework adds significant cost to product manufacture.

Our automatic bottle printers and coders are designed to integrate with production line systems, able to cope with a variety of line speeds and with automated date, time & number series functions reduce manual interventions and therefore avoid line downtime.

We also have models capable of static marking and offer specialist bottle coding solutions like UV visible inks or permanent laser marking suitable for luxury brands or anti-counterfeit product identification.
