Scottish baker installs Allen Coding system
Scottish baker JG Ross has invested in an Allen Coding R-XS small character continuous inkjet coder for the application of date codes and batch information to pre-printed flow wrap for its new gluten-free manufacturing facility in Portsoy, Aberdeenshire.
Family-run JG Ross operates 23 retail outlets and also supplies wholesale customers throughout the north-east of Scotland, including Tesco, Scotmid, Co-op and RS McColl.
The RX-S printer was selected for its ease of use and speed, and now operates on the JG Ross production line at up to 30 packs per minute (ppm), where it is installed on the film entry feed.
Cameron Ross, director at JG Ross, said: ‘We were recommended to Allen Coding by our label applicator supplier and their sales engineer suggested the R-XS printer as being most suitable for our production and packaging requirements.’
‘The training provided by Allen Coding was very good and the RX-S has been easy to install, learn and maintain and the quality of print is always good. Based on our experience so far, I would certainly recommend Allen Coding and the RX-S to other food companies.’
