Mevopur™ Healthcare Functional Additives Laser Marking Additives for Medical Devices and Pharmaceutical Packaging Laser marking offers several advantages compared to other marking technologies.
In some cases, additives are required to achieve the desired marking quality by enabling the plastic to absorb laser energy and/or improve the laser marking contrast.
Additives can also be used to increase laser marking speed and reduce the needed laser energy.
