Weigh, price, and banding
Weigh, price and label in one process
SmartBand™ technology turns banding into a weigh price labeling solution.
With an integrated scale system and printer, Bandall banding machines can weigh products, calculate the required data, and print weight, price, and barcode directly onto the banding material during application.
One band. One process. All your data in one place.
How SmartBand™ Works
SmartBand™ combines weighing, data generation, printing, and banding into a single automated process.
Step 1: The product is placed on the digital scale and is weighed.
Step 2: Based on the measured weight, the system calculates and generates the required information, such as weight, price, and barcode.
Step 3: The data is printed onto the banding material and is applied to the product.
Weight and price on top
Show the information that matters most, right on top of the band.
SmartBand™ lets you print weight, price and other key product data directly onto the band. Clear, visible and easy to read.
No extra label. No visual clutter. All the data you need, integrated into the band.
Barcode placed at the bottom
SmartBand™ moves the barcode to the bottom of the product, where it is easy to scan but does not interrupt the look of the packaging.
Packagers can keep the visible side of the band clear for branding, product information and shelf impact, while the barcode remains exactly where it needs to be.
Branding and labeling combined
With SmartBand™ banding technology, branding, labeling, and efficiency come together in one integrated prorcess.
By simply combining banding and labeling in one process, packagers can reduce separate labeling steps, simplify the packing line and create a cleaner final product.
Brand. Label. Band. All in one.
Frequently asked questions
What is a weigh price label?
A weigh price label shows the measured weight of a product, the calculated price, and usually a barcode. It is often used for products sold by weight, such as food products, fresh products, or other variable weight items.
Can a band replace a traditional weigh price label? (1)
Yes. Variable information such as weight, price, barcode data, and expiration dates can be printed directly onto the band, allowing it to function as the primary product label.
Are barcodes and QR codes scannable on bands?
Yes. High quality printing technologies ensure reliable barcode and QR code readability throughout the supply chain.
Is banding suitable for fresh food products?
Absolutely. Banding is widely used for meat, poultry, seafood, produce, and bakery applications.
Can banding reduce packaging costs?
In many applications, yes. Banding can replace multiple packaging components and reduce label material consumption.
Can i print anywhere on the band?
In many cases, yes, but the design of the band ultimately determines where variable data can be printed.
