To remain competitive in today’s non-alcoholic beverage sector, it’s more important than ever to invest in the right coding, labelling and inspection systems for your unique processing environment and product.

With Matthews’ vast range of technology solutions and expertise gained from many years’ working with the beverage industry, we can help you streamline your processes, and drive more productivity and better quality levels for your organisation.

Matthews helps you overcome your unique challenges:

Environment challenges e.g. coding on wet surfaces or wash down environments
Super high-line speeds
Stricter industry standards and laws to protect consumers
Major supermarkets and distributors insisting trading partners/ manufacturers follow their specific labelling, coding and quality rules
Ensuring compliance without affecting the product appearance

Quality control

Quality control is a must-have to save costs, improve efficiencies and ultimately increase retailer and consumer trust of your non-alcoholic beverage brand. Automation of quality control using vision inspection systems provides major cost savings, due to reduced rework, and more reliable product quality. Matthews offers a range of vision solutions that can:

Inspect the presence, position and formation of date codes and barcodes
Validate presence and positioning of labels
Check closures for tamper seals and correct caps by colour, dimension etc.
Inspect product fill levels and content.
Provide real-time "quality metrics" to enhance OEE data, when integrated into your line

Innovative Packaging

How can you meet consumer demands and stand out from the crowd? Using innovative packaging. But while packaging innovation can create shelf appeal, it must also meet all coding and labelling requirements. The right coding technology is essential. Matthews offers Laser Coding and small character inkjet printers, both of which print high quality permanent codes onto a vast range of substrates at high speeds.

Alternatively, our Label Applicators are a low-cost solution allowing you to apply pre-printed pressure-sensitive labels onto products of various shapes and sizes at high speeds.

Carton Coding and Pallet Labelling

You need technology solutions capable of applying codes to the differing substrates used for primary and secondary packaging. And you need to ensure your codes will be applied reliably in the wet or humid environments of bottling plants.
