The Digimarc® Barcode is an invisible barcode that can be embedded into the printed design of the packet enabling users within the value chain to quickly scan large portions of the package and access product information via a smartphone or tablet.
By integrating Digimarc® Barcodes into printed films, Wipak is able to decrease wastage throughout the supply chain, preventing costly errors such as using the wrong film or the incorrect labelling of pallets.
Within the store, Digimarc® can be used to help maintain accurate inventory levels and information relating to product expiration dates, enabling retailers to promote and relabel products to minimize food waste.
Using smart handheld devices consumers are able to interact with the brand gaining more information about the product composition, ingredients used, and nutritional information and recommended serving suggestions, etc. Information relating to the responsible disposal/recycling of the product can be added helping to ensure that recyclable materials are retained within the circular economy.
Sorting different materials into its appropriate waste stream is both time-consuming and costly if implemented at processing plants, recyclers could digitally read the information to increase their efficiencies and retain more materials within the circular economy.
To integrate Digimarc® Barcode into your packs, Wipak generates the required codes and embeds them into the packaging as part of the print process. Digimarc® Barcodes can be printed using either gravure, flexo or Wipak’s award-winning ProDirect® digital inkjet technology.

By using the same film(s) that will later be used in production we’re able to identify and eliminate any issues as soon as possible.
By manufacturing and storing cylinders for gravure printing and printing plates for flexo-print use we are able to decrease lead-times to a minimum and respond quickly to urgent requests and design modifications.
Whether you require gravure printing, flexo-print or a combination of the two, we cover the entire technical range, producing premium-quality and award-winning print images at our state of the art facilities across Europe and Asia.

Wipak‘s ProDirect technology directly helps to reduce carbon emissions related to production and to the product.
Based on data provided by Wipak‘s product carbon foot-print calculator, Wipak ProDirect customers are able to offset unavoidable emissions at order level – thus getting a climate-neutral package. Certified climate protection pro-jects are made available for selection in cooperation with ClimatePartner. A label displaying an ID number is printed on the packaging material to ensure utmost transparency. Carbon offsets are reproducible by means of QR codes or online via www.climatepartner.com.
