In North America, the secondary packaging market has seen a lot of growth, driven by the growing demands of industries such as food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and consumer goods. As businesses strive to meet these growing demands, efficient and traceable coding secondary packaging coding solutions have become more crucial. MapleJet leads the way, offering solutions that not only ensure compliance with regulatory standards but also enhance supply chain visibility and product authenticity.

Challenges in Secondary Packaging Coding  

High Volume Production Challenges: Large companies often face challenges managing high-volume production lines as it can be daunting. The primary challenges include Ensuring consistent print quality, integrating coding solutions seamlessly into high-speed manufacturing lines, and minimizing downtime can be difficult. Additionally, the complexity increases when handling large amounts of data for traceability and compliance with evolving global regulations.

Small-Medium Volume Production Challenges: Small to medium enterprises (SMEs) face different hurdles, primarily around cost and scalability. These companies need secondary packaging coding solutions that are cost-effective, easy to integrate, and flexible. SMEs also require systems that can be easily adjusted or upgraded as their production needs change and grow.
