Capsule reviews

Here are a few brief reviews of packaging-related Web sites. Lasertechnics (Albuquerque, NM), located at www.lasertechnics.com, has a site that makes a basic, though well-written, pitch for laser coding.

It also describes the types of substrates that can be laser-coded and addresses commonly asked questions about laser-coding technology.

Also available are color bar charts that compare costs of lasers to other forms of coding. An interactive worksheet is intended to help potential buyers cost-justify the purchase of the equipment. Also on the site are customer applications featuring the likes of Anheuser-Busch and Crystal Geyser. Drawbacks: confusing navigation and vague section headings.

Display Pack (Grand Rapids, MI), a contract packager and manufacturer of paperboard packaging, blisters and clamshells, has an easy-to-use site at www.displaypack.com. Its product section is broken into four parts: printed packaging, vacuum-formed packaging, display boxes and contract packaging. The site also features an informative photographic tour of its operations, including package design, electronic prepress, laser die making, in-house sheeting, printing, die-cutting, gluing, CAD/CAM tooling, vacuum forming and contract packaging. The site gets high marks for ease of navigation, though it's a bit sparse on the details.
