DataLase and Zeller+Gmelin enter global licensing agreement

DataLase (formerly Sherwood Technology) announced a collaboration with “Zeller+Gmelin” Corporation, an international manufacturer of UV high quality specialty printing inks. This partnership will see ZellerþGmelin marketing a complete range of inks produced using DataLase's patented, “DataLase” process, via a non-exclusive license agreement. The agreement will enable the German based company to develop the “DataLase Packmark” solution and distribute it to their global network of subsidiaries and distributors. “Data Lase Packmark” is a patent-pending, coding and marking solution for applying on-demand variable information to primary packaging materials. The process uses a laser reactive coating, which undergoes a colour change reaction when imaged with a CO₂ laser. This novel solution, which has a wide range of applications relating to coding, marking, and tracking and tracing, also provides novel brand protection features.
