Edible Ink Sets A New Standard for Capsule Printing

As the pharmaceutical packaging industry continues to raise its standards for safety and compliance, capsule printing technology is experiencing a revolutionary breakthrough. The combination of edible ink with fully automated printing machines not only meets the demand for precise drug identification but also opens a new era of personalized packaging.

Product Advantages: Safety and Customization in One

Paired with edible ink, capsule printing machines can produce high-definition prints of text, numbers, patterns, and short phrases on the surface of both empty and soft capsules. This perfectly accommodates diverse needs such as printing batch numbers, production dates, and custom logos. The edible ink is pharmaceutical-grade certified, non-toxic, and odorless, ensuring the safety of the capsules for consumption while providing businesses with customized branding solutions to enhance product recognition.

Application Scenarios: Covering the Pharmaceutical and Health Supplement Sectors

This technology is widely adopted by pharmaceutical factories and health supplement manufacturers, helping clients achieve efficient and compliant identification printing. Whether for batch management required for regulatory traceability or for brand differentiation through custom logos, the high-precision printing process significantly enhances product market competitiveness.

Technical Highlights: Efficient, Clean, and Compliance-Ready

Utilizing a fully automated printing process, the equipment operates with stability and supports capsules of various sizes and materials, catering to both small-batch customization and large-scale production. The non-contact, pollution-free printing process strictly adheres to GMP standards for cleanliness and safety in pharmaceutical packaging, helping companies mitigate compliance risks.

Market Trends: Personalized Packaging as the New Industry Frontier

The global capsule printing machine industry is rapidly evolving towards personalization and customization. Companies in the functional food and health supplement sectors are leveraging creative pattern printing (such as custom logos and health slogans) to drive brand value. Successful case studies from both domestic and international markets confirm that innovative packaging not only builds consumer trust but also creates powerful opportunities for differentiated marketing.

With safety as its foundation and customization as its engine, edible ink capsule printing technology is leading the pharmaceutical packaging industry into a new era of “precise identification meets creative expression.” Embrace the trend—upgrade your product packaging today and seize the market advantage!
