Coding and marking have remained an integral part of the product/commodity supply chain for years now. The overall technology itself has a crucial role to play in our daily lives, be it from the perspective of businesses, industries, or even mere consumers. The coding and marking process in simple terms involves the imprinting of information and data on products and its packaging to enable an efficient track & trace process throughout the supply/distribution chain. This packaging could either be a primary or secondary form of packaging, depending on the product material to be coded. Similarly, the information or the data to be printed can vary as per product category. For instance, the coding and marking of a food item such as fruit cakes can have information such as best before dates and bar codes for tracking it, while in case of chemical fertilizer, the information related to the chemical may be highlighted more expansively.
