Direct Contact Printing on Food and Medicine

Direct contact printing on food and medicine ensures accurate expiration dates and traceability data while meeting strict safety regulations in the food and pharmaceutical industries. Using FDA-approved inks, this process applies essential information—such as expiry dates, nutrition facts, and batch codes—directly onto edible products without compromising consumer health. These inks are non-toxic, food-safe, and developed to meet rigorous global health standards.

Where transparency is vital, direct contact printing builds trust between manufacturers and consumers by providing clear, reliable information. Whether applied to an eggshell or a medicinal tablet, this printing method reflects the industry’s commitment to safety, quality, and consumer well-being. Videojet’s continuous inkjet (CIJ) printers enable brands to print directly on food and medicine, while Videojet CO2 laser systems mark complex packaging like egg cartons—delivering precise codes and consistent quality.
