Coding Systems for you.
Cyklop Needham offers a robust portfolio of industrial inkjet coding systems designed to meet the strict regulatory and operational demands of pharmaceutical manufacturing. From blister packs and vials to cartons, labels, and syringes, our solutions ensure precise, permanent, and compliant marking across diverse packaging formats and production environments.
Our lineup includes Continuous Inkjet (CIJ) and Thermal Inkjet (TIJ) printers, both engineered for pharma-grade applications:
- CIJ printers excel in high-speed, continuous production, delivering sharp, resilient codes that withstand sterilisation, abrasion, and exposure to chemicals or moisture – ideal for coding primary and secondary packaging at scale.
- TIJ printers provide high-resolution, clean-printing ideal for serialisation, labeling, and batch coding in intermittent or cleanroom settings, with minimal maintenance and seamless integration into track-and-trace systems.
These technologies support full regulatory compliance (including GMP, FDA, 21 CFR Part 11, EU FMD, and DSCSA) while enhancing product integrity, traceability, and quality assurance. Whether you’re a contract manufacturer or a global pharmaceutical brand, Cyklop Needham’s solutions ensure efficient, compliant operations from line to patient.
We recommend the following high-performance printer solutions:
