A smart label uses the technology beyond conventional bar codes, and forms a crucial facet of printed electronics through the sensor technology. Spoil detection-based smart labels especially capture an important portion of the printed electronics market, as they are extensively used for groceries, and other food and beverage products all over the globe.
While a sizeable population across the globe is a dedicated packaged food products buyer, it has been observed that consumers are finding it easy to read the detailed product information stored in a chip, using their smartphones, computers, or scanners.
According to the U.S. Grocery Manufacturers Association (GMA), around 80% of products belonging to food and beverages, pet and personal care, and household verticals will do feature a smart label, within the next five years. Drupa (the largest printing equipment exhibition in the world, held in Germany) indicates that an increasing number of companies are relying on smart labels to provide traceability of their food products to consumers. Leading food manufacturing brands, including Hershey Co., Kellog Company, The J.M. Smucker Company, and Nestle have started using smart labels.
