Matthews is a full-line coding supplier: we supply all coding and labelling technologies, including laser, continuous inkjet, valve-jet, hi-res and thermal transfer. Our sales team is fully trained in all equipment, and we pride ourselves on our commitment to continual technical training.

The association with our partner, Matthews International Corporation, and other world leaders in specialised fields of product identification, puts us among the best in the world in coding and labelling; simultaneously, it gives us instant access to a global network of product support.

Those global links also ensure we’re at the forefront of technology. For instance, Matthews is the first (and only) company in Australia to offer Label Printer Applicators for RFID labels. RFID is leading-edge technology that will revolutionise automatic data capture.

Part of remaining at that technological forefront is Matthews’ R&D efforts, both in Australia and overseas. These include assessing the most suitable mediums for different materials and evolving process needs. This research enables both machinery manufacturers and manufacturers (the machinery users) to make more informed decisions.

But we think to do a good job in all of that, we need to look broadly: beyond just our business and yours. Matthews Intelligent Identification is one of only 10 Foundation (Knowledge Centre) Partners among EAN Australia’s 13,000 members — and the only marking and coding company to hold this status. In 2002, Matthews was voted onto the ADCA and APMA committees, having been long-time members of both associations. For us, being a part of these associations is important. Its aims are to develop and maintain standards and education in the market place, which jells with Matthews’ business philosophies.
