Matthews will help ensure your products always have the right date codes and batch codes to meet stringent retailer and industry requirements.

Get compliant codes, every time

Matthews will help ensure your products always have the right date codes and batch codes to meet stringent retailer and industry requirements:

 

Date Codes: In Australia, the Food Standards Code states that packaged foods with a shelf life under two years must have a use by date on the primary packaging and a best before date in most other cases. Retailers also require date code information on secondary packaging to help improve stock turnaround and avoid food wastage.

Batch Codes: As marks of identification, batch codes are used to help product traceability. All packages with the same batch code are considered to be the same in nature, quality, quantity etc. We offer a range of batch printers to meet varied applications and needs.
