Markem-Imaje, a premier provider of end-to-end supply chain solutions and industrial marking and coding systems, has delivered an advanced coding solution to the Italian snack producer Fiorentini.
Based in Turin, Fiorentini has upheld a tradition of crafting exceptional products since its inception by founder Leonildo Fiorentini in 1918. Over four generations, the company has cultivated a deep passion for food. Through continuous innovation and a keen focus on consumer preferences, Fiorentini has established itself as a leader in Italy’s crackers and healthy snacks market.
“Today we are a modern and cutting-edge company, which is why we have chosen a partner capable of providing an equally modern and robust printing and coding solution,” states Luca Perri, Operations Director at Fiorentini. “Markem-Imaje is the sole provider in the coding market that has offered us an integrated solution, comprising a proprietary software platform, reliable coders, and the necessary expertise in industrial environments to effectively execute this project.”
Fiorentini is committed to making healthy, organic products both tasty and accessible. The company successfully caters to a diverse range of consumers by producing and selling organic and dietary products that are free from intolerances. Every product, from start to finish, undergoes stringent quality control, establishing the Fiorentini brand as a hallmark of excellence, both domestically and internationally.
The company’s regulatory controls encompass everything from raw materials to production processes. This is where Markem-Imaje’s expertise in coding data management is invaluable. Their solutions enable the automatic delivery of the correct messaging to appropriate packaging, ensuring accuracy in production while providing prompt support when required.
The CoLOS© solution operates seamlessly in a sophisticated environment, enabling communication in parallel with management and industrial automation systems. This flexibility facilitates real-time data exchange. The robust CoLOS© software allows for variable coding on each individual item based on the information relayed by the factory’s management system. The newly implemented Markem-Imaje printing and data management solution has notably enhanced Fiorentini’s production efficiency and traceability, essential for food and drink packaging.
“The Fiorentini project has now been operational for six years. We take great pride in providing a solution that functions effectively within a complex IT environment, managing a dynamic and diverse production data ecosystem,” asserts Guido Torriglia, Sales Area Manager for Markem-Imaje Italy. “We handle various coding types, including direct application onto product packaging and label printing for cartons and pallets. Fiorentini employs many of our technologies, including Smartdate© Thermal Transfer Overprinters, the 9400 series Continuous InkJet coding systems, and the award-winning 2200 Series Print and Apply system—all seamlessly managed by our CoLOS© production software.”
