Wipak was one of the first certified partners to implement Digimarc watermarks as a pioneer in Europe. As your Service Partner for the implementation of Digimarc watermarks, we advise and support you during the whole manufacturing process. We provide services from artwork consultancy, through the main enhancement process, up to production and quality control. We have experience of more than 4900 Digimarc watermark enhancements through all printing technologies and packaging types.

Scan & Scale Your Business

Digimarc digital watermarks are an almost invisible data carrier capable of embedding information and codes into the printed design of packaging, covering the entire exterior surface to ensure unrivalled scanning accuracy. This provides value at every single stage of the package journey – from manufacturing and production to supply chain efficiency and recycling.

Digimarc watermarks can be implemented with all printing technologies onto any material and packaging type. Watch the video to discover how it works!
