Korean manufacturer invests in Anytron label equipment

CJ is exporting its products to various countries worldwide, which requires a range of labeling in several languages, which need to be legible, and can be scanned at necessary points throughout the process.

The company has been outsourcing label printing; however, this posed the unnecessary risk of delivery delays and quality issues. Since there are already problems with the supply chain, CJ decided to increase its shipping efficiency and accuracy with on-site label printing. This also provides the ability for a quick turnaround when changes are made. The process of bringing printing in-house has also increased capacity and processing time.

‘We were looking for suitable technology and decided anytron was the best option for us. We are now using a digital label printer Any-002 and a laser die-cutter any-CUT to produce labels on-demand,’ said CJ in a statement.  

The new equipment has also contributed to a significant reduction of waste. 

‘This included waste in all areas, such as deterioration of labels, production deficiencies and additional or unnecessary product handling. As of now, we have an in-house printing ratio expanded to 50 percent of the total volume. We plan to establish the goal of printing all labels in-house by next year,’ added the company. ‘We are considering expanding the print capacity by using Anytron equipment to achieve this goal.’
