The world’s first universal label for hundreds of products
(industrietreff) - Bizerba presents the VPI Label at the IFFA 2010 (International Trade Fair for Processing, Packaging and Sales in the Meat Industry)
Only one label with printable areas for different kinds of data from hundreds of products. Advantages for the food trade: No more changing of labels and labelling mistakes, reduced storage costs and mass circulation will ensure profitable investments. Exclusive laminate production allows for the pin-sharp printing of tiny fonts.
Bochum, March 2010 – At the IFFA 2010, the leading international trade fair of the meat industry, the technology provider Bizerba will present the VPI label (variable product information) – an individually implemented industry trend – from the 8th to the 13th of May (hall 6.0, stand C60). With the Bizerba laminate it will be possible to use the same label for an entire product range consisting of hundreds of different products. The basic layout is pre-printed according to company-specific parameters – for example with logo, slogan and a general corporate design. The areas for the variable data such as product name, date, charge, weight, price and barcode are empty at the time of delivery.
With the help of the Bizerba GLM-I and GLP labelling machines the customer will be able to print details as to the nutritional value, the contents, special offers and the packaging date on the printable areas by himself. Marc Büttgenbach, the Sales Manager for Labels and Consumables at Bizerba, explains the advantages for the food trade: “The fact that only one label is required from now on reduces on the one hand, the operating costs for the storage of several kinds of labels and on the other hand, there are no more changeover times for the exchanging of labels during product changes and labelling mistakes are also a thing of the past. This way it is no longer possible that a ham label is applied to Salami. In addition the customer can order the universal label in substantial quantities and thereby save even more.” The sample label is from the company Greifenfleisch in Greifswald, a producer of high-quality meat and sausage products.
For the production of VPI labels only high-quality raw materials with specially designed thermal coating on a lactone basis and an exclusive laminate that is only employed by Bizerba are used. This laminate serves as the bonding for material, adhesive and silicon carrier, thus being responsible for the proper function of the VPI label in the first place. “During production an exact and even glue coating is the most important criterion for the optimum functionality of the labels – legibility, but also permanent adhesion and constant colour quality are directly affected by this,” Büttgenbach adds.
The specially designed combination of high-quality label and Bizerba labelling machines makes it possible not only to print the barcode but also even the tiniest fonts legibly and in pin-sharp quality. The thermal coating also contains components triggering a cleaning effect at the heating points of the thermal elements, thus contributing substantially to the long and failure-free product life of the Bizerba labelling machines.
Any customer that implements such a system label will achieve a more efficient production process through the reduced number of labels and the optimised production cycle. “The cost savings and the plus in productivity will amortise the investment in this high-quality label very quickly,” Büttgenbach concluding.
