As we have a manufacturing permit under Section 13 of the German Drug Law (Arzneimittelgesetz, AMG) we frequently have to print variable data, such as the batch and the expiration date, on the secondary packaging.

German legislation on medicines requires permanent and tamper-proof labelling. Coding using continuous inkjet printing with permanent ink is the ideal way to fulfil this requirement. For example, this technology can be used to mark cardboard boxes or medicines "sample - not for sale." Furthermore, the inkjet procedure can be used to print on other products and advertising materials. The printing can be adjusted as required.
