A prominent trend is the emphasis on product innovation by companies striving to maintain their market positions. An example of such innovation is seen in Primera Technology Inc., a US-based manufacturer of digital printing equipment, which introduced the AP-CODE Lot & Date Coder in June 2023. This device is compatible with both newly installed and pre-existing Primera AP360 and AP362 label applicators. Featuring a full-color touchscreen for data entry and configuration, the AP-CODE facilitates lot and date coding without the need for an external power supply. It allows free-format print fields containing various symbols, numbers, and letters, with the option to save formats for later use. The device's black ink cartridge adheres to diverse surfaces such as glass, metal, plastic, and laminated labels. Notably, the AP-CODE requires more than a day for decap, a process eliminating blockages that involves overnight printing head capping.

Major players in the laminated labels market are strategically focusing on developing innovative products such as Prime label converters to drive revenue growth. These converters gain access to new lamination alternatives for their products through portfolios offering a diverse range of materials, textures, and visual effects. For instance, Nobelus Inc., a US-based company specializing in laminating films and specialty films for the graphic arts and packaging industries, launched a new portfolio of unsupported films in June 2022. Specifically designed for the prime label industry, these films provide finishing alternatives to meet the increasing market demand for creative, premium, and low-alcohol beverages. Intended for use with prime label applications, optimal performance requires a wet adhesive and UV/LED curing technology in a wet lamination system. The portfolio includes features such as prismatic holographic patterns, plush soft-touch textures, essential gloss and matte coatings, and other distinctive effects to enhance label visibility on store shelves.
