A toast to fast, flexible laser coding on bottles

摘要

Founded in 1830, Spanish, family-owned business Luis Caballero S.A. produces world-renowned wines and spirits that are exported to 50 countries worldwide. At its winery, located next to the historic Castle of San Marcos in Santa Maria Port, 135 employees produce 7 million bottles of product every year, generating an annual turnover of more than $59 million. Due to food safety regulations, such as the BRC Global Standard, Caballero must be able to trace its products back to their origin. Therefore, prior to distribution, the company codes each bottle with a batch or date code, along with the time the wine or spirit was filled.
