For a variety of labeling tasks
Product labeling throughout your processes
Whether it’s packaging, pallets, or components: Different applications place different demands on adhesion, drying, readability, and durability.
BOWA offers inkjet inks tailored to various materials and production environments—customized to your specific marking task.
Packaging Labeling
Whether it’s cardboard, labels, film, or plastic: When it comes to packaging marking, the ink must dry quickly, adhere securely, and produce a clean print.
BOWA tailors the ink solution to the material, printing system, and production speed—ensuring reliable packaging marking during the production process.
Pallet Labeling and Logistics
In shipping and logistics, product and merchandise information must be quickly and clearly legible.
For pallet labeling, barcodes, numbers, and other variable data can be applied to labels or packaging elements—with high contrast and reliable readability even at high throughput rates.
Component Marking
Serial numbers, production data, lot codes, or identification marks can be printed directly onto industrial products and components.
When it comes to component marking, BOWA evaluates the material, adhesion, and durability and recommends a suitable ink for the specific production process.
For automated production lines
Flexible Implementation of Industrial Product Marking
In automated production processes, markings must be applied quickly, precisely, and flexibly. Serial numbers, batch numbers, dates, or codes often vary from product to product.
With the right inkjet inks, industrial marking can be integrated directly into existing production lines—contactless, flexible, and designed for a variety of print content.
Thermal inkjet is particularly well-suited for high-resolution markings such as text, numbers, barcodes, QR codes, and DataMatrix codes. With the right HP-45-compatible BOWA inks, you can achieve precise print images with short changeover times and minimal maintenance.
Right for Your Application
Which ink is right for your product labeling?
Not every ink works equally well on every material. The surface, printing system, production speed, and requirements for adhesion, drying, and durability are all critical factors.
BOWA will evaluate your application and recommend a suitable ink solution—tested directly on your original material upon request.
