The ColorWorks C3500 digital label printer is able to print high resolution, bright and attractive coloured labels that meet the needs of all food producers and suppliers. The ColorWorks label printer can reproduce high quality colour images, traffic light food coding symbols, highlight nutrition value information, ingredients and allergens.

Many different businesses are already using Epson’s digital ColorWorks printer including drinks companies, meat and fruit suppliers, delicatessens, service stations, artisan food producers and general catering companies that sell into all the major supermarkets across Europe.

Jacob Kallergis commented: “We are delighted to receive this accreditation – it has taken over two years to achieve – and Epson is one of the first desktop inkjet label printer manufacturers on the market to have it. This means food producers and suppliers across Europe in need of on-demand colour labelling, can now use Epson’s ColorWorks digital label printer to produce labels for food products with confidence.”
