Since 1982, Amaco has been a trusted partner to the medical packaging industry, designing the perfect workflow to deliver tailor-made life cycle services.
From label design to inline installation in cleanroom environments, from vision control and inspection systems to virtual reality technical support.
This year, alongside its latest innovations, Amaco showcases (November 17–20, 2025 | Hall 8B, Booth E04) how its inline printing and vision inspection technologies enable medical device manufacturers to meet the world’s most demanding regulatory requirements, including MDR, FDA UDI, REACH, and EUDAmed, while ensuring production efficiency and sustainability.
Safe, traceable and compliant in medical packaging: UDI (Unique Device Identification)
As the global regulatory landscape evolves, UDI (Unique Device Identification) has become the foundation of safe, traceable, and compliant in medical packaging. Every item must be uniquely identifiable, verifiable, and readable throughout its entire lifecycle. Under both MDR in Europe and the FDA UDI Rule in the United States, UDI data accuracy, print quality, and durability are essential for market access and patient safety.
Amaco’s philosophy is clear: compliance should be built in, not bolted on. Its systems integrate high-resolution inline printing with 100% automated vision inspection, enabling real-time verification of your packaging accuracy in terms of full artwork, codes and variable data directly on the packaging line, without manual intervention or secondary inspection steps.
Through this integrated process, each package is printed, verified, and documented in a single workflow, eliminating the risk of unreadable or incorrect identifiers that could lead to recalls, delays, or non-conformities.
In addition to traceability and inspection, Amaco addresses the growing need for ink safety and sustainability. Its validated mineral-oil-free inks are formulated specifically for medical device packaging, ensuring low migration, non-hazardous printing that protects sterile barrier integrity and patient safety. These inks comply with REACH and toxicological standards, supporting the medical industry’s transition toward environmentally responsible and patientsafe production.
A printing ecosystem. Packaging safe, sustainable and ready for global distribution
The result is a complete printing ecosystem that balances regulatory assurance, operational efficiency, and sustainability. Manufacturers can be confident that each package leaving the line is not only compliant and traceable, but also safe, sustainable, and ready for global distribution. Then, full traceability, data integrity, and documentation mean audit readiness and simplifying compliance with both U.S. and European regulations.
The advantages of Amaco technology can be summarized in its ability to adapt the evolving standards without compromising cycle time or production flexibility. With Amaco, UDI compliance is not an added process, it is an integral part of production.
Coinciding with Compamed 2025, Amaco will also announce the relaunch of its website, offering an enhanced digital experience for customers. The new platform highlights Amaco’s expertise in compliant printing, vision inspection, and consulting services dedicated to the medical packaging industry.
Visitors to Hall 8B, Booth E04 will experience compliance in action thanks to live demonstrations of inline printing and automated vision inspection systems that embody Amaco’s commitment to safety, accuracy, and regulatory excellence. In a sector where every code tells a story of trust, Amaco ensures that each UDI is printed with precision, verified with confidence, and compliant by design.
