Printers, ink and labels

The printer has been bought. This is what comes with it every week.

A business buying labels is really buying two things: the material that gets printed on and the ink that has to stay on it. Aladin Code supplies both — ink for your label printer and labels entirely made to measure, matched to the machine you have and to what your label has to survive.

To the labels

Price on request — matched to material, size and run length.

Part 1 — Ink

Ink for your label printer.

Cartridges are model-specific: what fits a Callisto does not fit an Afinia. We supply only original ink from the two brands we sell, because on colour fastness and lifespan imitations make the difference that you only see months later.

Original cartridges

Only original ink from Afinia Label and NeuraLabel. No own brand, no refills — with industrial labels, colour fastness is not a detail to economise on.

  • The right cartridge per model
  • Dye or pigment depending on the machine
  • No compatible imitations

Printheads and parts

Besides ink we supply the parts that go with servicing your machine: printheads, service trays and other wear parts.

  • Printheads
  • Service trays
  • Other wear parts

One-off or on an annual contract

Order when you need it, or fix a continuous supply in an annual contract. Your ink then arrives automatically at the agreed rhythm.

  • One-off order
  • Continuous supply on an annual contract
  • No minimum order

Do you work with a machine from another brand? We will look at which ink and labels suit it just the same.

Part 2 — Labels

Labels entirely made to measure.

There is no catalogue of fixed sizes to choose from: every label is cut to measure. What decides the choice is the material — and that follows from where the label ends up. One condition always applies: it has to have an inkjet coating.

Paper

The most common material: sharp printing, economical, and more than enough for labels used indoors. Shipping labels, product labels, warehouse labels.

  • Best price per label
  • Sharp colour reproduction
  • For dry indoor environments

PP (polypropylene)

Synthetic and tear-resistant, standing up to moisture and friction. The choice as soon as a label has to survive condensation, refrigeration or a rough environment.

  • Moisture- and tear-resistant
  • For refrigeration and freezing
  • Suitable for outdoor use too

PE (polyethylene)

More flexible than PP and therefore suited to packaging that gives: squeeze bottles, tubes and pouches. The label deforms with it without coming loose.

  • Flexible material
  • For squeeze bottles and tubes
  • Keeps adhering when deformed

For special conditions

  • Freezer and refrigeration

    Our standard adhesive already holds down to close to freezer temperature. For genuine freezer work there is a specific variant.

  • Outdoors and UV

    Material and adhesive that survive sun, rain and temperature swings without fading or letting go.

  • Chemicals and GHS

    BS5609-certified label material for hazardous substances, in combination with pigment ink.

  • Heat-resistant

    For labels that have to take heating without curling or discolouring.

  • Removable adhesive

    Labels that have to come off cleanly after use, without leaving adhesive residue.

  • Blank or pre-printed

    You print on blank labels yourself, or we supply them pre-printed — both are possible.

Why with Aladin Code

You can order ink anywhere. This is what comes with it.

  • Material and printer that go together

    We guarantee that the label you order works on the machine you have. No ink that will not adhere, no material the printer cannot handle.

  • More than 35 years of experience with labels

    Which adhesive goes with which packaging and which material survives a cold store — that is experience you do not get out of a catalogue.

  • Tailored advice, beforehand

    Tell us what you print and what it goes on, and you get a concrete proposal instead of a product list.

  • We know the history of your machine

    Because we installed and maintain the printer ourselves, we know what has already gone through it and why something did or did not work last time.

  • Fast delivery

    Ink is held in stock and usually with you within a few days. We bring it round ourselves or send it by courier.

  • Even without a printer from us

    Did you buy your label printer elsewhere? You are just as welcome for ink and labels — we will look together at what consumption suits your machine.

How to order

From question to delivery.

  1. 01

    You email us what you need

    Let us know which machine you have, which label you print and what quantities are involved. A photo of the current label or roll often already helps.

  2. 02

    You get a proposal — and a sample on request

    We confirm which material and which ink suit your machine, with the price alongside. If you are unsure about the material, we print a sample first.

  3. 03

    Delivery, one-off or continuous

    We bring it round ourselves or send it by courier, throughout Belgium and the Netherlands. If you would rather not think about it any more, we set up an annual contract.

No minimum order for ink. For labels made to measure we agree delivery time and quantities per order.

Request

Tell us which label you print, and we will find the material.

Let us know which machine you have, which size you need and where the label ends up. You will get a concrete proposal with a price — and a sample first, on request.
