CodeStream Laser Markable Coating

Today you have several choices to apply variable, on-demand data to products and packaging. Whether tracking, manufacturing, e-pedigree, or barcodes, the mark must be stable, machine readable, and unalterable. However, most methodologies used to write these codes are inherently flawed and lead to rejects, machine downtime, and loss of product integrity. Now there is a fail-proof technology that quickly and securely marks products with a low wattage CO2 laser—CodeStream.

Developed by FUJIFILM Hunt Chemicals USA, CodeStream is a transparent, water-based laser writable coating that produces a high quality mark when exposed to a low power laser. The CodeStream mark is tamper evident, preventing product counterfeiting and modification of product information such as expiration dates, serial numbers, and lot codes.

Unlike other marking methods, CodeStream does not release solvents, airborne particulates, or consumable waste at the packaging line. Compatible with most laser writing equipment, it is the first laser marking technology that is consistently readable, verifiable, and unalterable. Backed by superior service from the start to the final mark, CodeStream is the clear choice in product marking.
