Innovation in labeling: Coldstore labeling down to -30°C

Efficiency and safety in cold logistics: the future of pallet labeling in cold environments

In the world of refrigerated and frozen storage, speed, accuracy, and safety are crucial. Whether it’s frozen food, pharmaceutical products, or chilled beverages, companies operating in cold environments need systems that can withstand low temperatures while providing the highest standards of performance and safety. This is where coldstore labeling systems come in—systems specifically designed for use in cold and freezing environments, where other labeling technologies often fail.

Why are Evolabel Coldstore Systems Essential?

In sectors like the food industry, pharmaceuticals, and logistics for temperature-sensitive goods, pallets or products often need to be stored in conditions where the temperature is well below freezing. This brings specific challenges:

  • Frozen and Irregular Surfaces: Labeling frozen, rough, or moist surfaces requires equipment that can withstand such conditions.

  • Cold Temperature Limitations: Many labeling systems do not perform well in extremely cold environments, leading to delays, incorrect labeling, or faulty equipment.

  • Accuracy and Safety: In low-temperature environments, automated systems may be less reliable, especially when operator safety is at risk.

This is where the FlexWipe® motorized stand XL and the eTamp applicator make a difference. These advanced systems provide solutions for companies looking for robust, safe, and reliable labeling solutions, even in the most extreme conditions.

The Benefits of Coldstore Labeling Systems

  • Reliable Performance on Cold Surfaces
    Coldstore systems like the FlexWipe® motorized stand XL are specifically designed for rough and cold surfaces. Whether it’s frozen meat, frozen vegetables, or pharmaceutical products, these systems work flawlessly, even in temperatures as low as -30°C. The advanced technology ensures that labels adhere securely, regardless of the cold.

  • Efficiency in Cold Environments
    The systems are designed for high capacity. Thanks to direct thermal printing technology, no ink is used, meaning there is no risk of ink buildup or fading, even in low temperatures. This makes the systems not only efficient but also ideal for demanding environments.

  • Maximum Safety and Flexibility
    Safety is a priority, especially in cold environments where operational risks can be higher. The FlexWipe® Motorized Stand XL system constantly monitors movement and stops automatically if it detects obstacles or unexpected situations, such as power failure or loss of compressed air. Furthermore, the eTamp Applicator offers extra protection with an automatic stop function that prevents injury by detecting obstacles.

  • Accurate Labeling of Partially Loaded Pallets
    Another key benefit of these systems is the ability to label partially loaded pallets. This increases flexibility in production and storage processes, allowing businesses to adapt their labeling systems to the specific needs of their products, even when pallets are not fully loaded.

Where are Coldstore Labeling Systems Used?

Coldstore labeling systems are vital for the following sectors:

  • Food Industry: From meat and fish to frozen meals, food that must be stored at low temperatures requires reliable labeling to ensure traceability.

  • Pharmaceutical Sector: Medications and vaccines that need to be stored in frozen or chilled environments can rely on these systems for safe and accurate labeling.

  • Beverage Industry: Chilled storage of drinks like soda, beer, or juice can also benefit from these robust labeling solutions.

  • Logistics & E-commerce: Companies distributing temperature-sensitive products, such as online food suppliers, benefit from the speed and precision of these systems in cold environments.

Conclusion

Integrating coldstore labeling systems into your business processes not only improves efficiency but also provides the necessary safety and reliability in cold environments. Whether you are working with frozen goods, pharmaceutical products, or chilled beverages, systems like the FlexWipe® Motorized Stand XL and eTamp Applicator offer the ideal solution to make your labeling fast, safe, and accurate, even in the most challenging conditions.
