New marking and printing
standards…
Printing and marking with redcube offers advantages
across all industries and for a wide range of applications.
Keeping you prepared for the rise of increasingly complex
market challenges and industry regulations.
Thank you for considering redcube – Hapa’s
compact printing, marking and coding module.
Hapa specializes in inline, On Demand, Just-inTime printing systems.
UV Flexo technology – ideal for all bulk
printing – runs in the tens or hundreds of
thousands – and for product information and
artwork requiring the highest print quality.
UV DOD – fully-digital, non-contact print
technology ideally suited for smaller batches,
codes, serialization and Late Stage Customization, as well as Track and Trace and anti-counterfeiting print needs.
UV Flexo / UV DOD Hybrid – combining
two technologies into one flexible system to
meet multiple needs from varying batch sizes
and print quality to two-color printing.
Contact us directly to receive specific product
data or to request samples from redcube or any
other Hapa print system.

Anti-counterfeiting
FDA Announces New Measures to Protect Americans from Counterfeit Drugs
«The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) today announced new steps to strengthen existing
protections against the growing problem of counterfeit drugs. The measures, which were
recommended in a report released today by the agency’s Counterfeit Drug Task Force, emphasize
certain regulatory actions and the use of new technologies for safeguarding the integrity of the
U.S. drug supply.»
(FDA News Release)
Track & Trace
Drugmakers Looking for Track-and-Trace Across the Supply Chain
«The buzz around serialization and track-and-trace in the pharmaceutical industry has largely been
focused on protecting the downstream supply chain, but companies are increasingly looking at the
business benefits upstream as well.»
(Phil Taylor, SecuringPharma)
Serialization
Europe Shows the Way to Pharmaceutical Serialization
«Through government regulations and/or standards organizations, Europe is out in front when it
comes to serialization in pharmaceutical and medical device packaging applications.»
(Posted by Healthcare Packaging)
Real time packaging information
QR Codes – a new packaging dimension
«The QR codes are a fantastic opportunity to communicate to the customer, without increasing
packaging size or label space… Using the mobile phone technology, it is possible to link to
provenance stories about the product, or, indeed, stories behind the packaging, to far greater
depth – including the use of video footage – all tailored to the mobile phone screen.»
