For over twenty years, Gencode has distinguished itself as a leader in the field of coding, marking and digital inkjet printing systems. Founded with the aim of providing innovative, high-quality solutions, the company has constantly evolved its offering to meet the ever-growing needs of the market.
2000
The company was founded, in 2000, as a laboratory for the testing and development of ideas for various technical sectors.
This led to the development of control units for combustion engines and stepper motors, serial interfaces and display terminals, confirming the company’s conviction that the close integration of electronic, mechanical and hydraulic technologies is key to creating innovative products.
2002
No one had ever thought of using such a high resolution and large dimension in the packaging sector.

Despite undermarketing, this machine was immediately enormously successful, so much so that only after a few years it was imitated by other manufacturers in the sector.
2004
The novelty was the integration of electronics directly in the print head, which eliminated the need for the control units and inconvenient connection cables used at that time by manufacturers.
With this innovation came reduced power dissipation, lower energy consumption, increased versatility, the use of a potentially unlimited number of print heads and straightforward connection to computers.
Then came the 17 dots version, the only one on the market able print up to 3 lines of text.

Touch screens had previously been considered too delicate for these applications, and after an initial wariness on behalf of the market, the product was well-received and became the new standard for the sector, leading, naturally, to the appearance of a number of imitations.

2010
In 2010, an innovative automatic ink purging and recovery system (SINK) was introduced onto the market, allowing the company’s printers to autonomously and automatically clean themselves and recycle the ink that would normally be wasted in the process, filtering it and reusing it.
The success of this system soon prompted other sector manufacturers to imitate it.
The following years were dedicated to updating and expanding the product range, and to attracting new customers.
2014
In the same year, a purged ink controlled suction system was developed in collaboration with the company’s biggest client, which then proceeded to patent the innovation, and, in just a few months, over 100 specimens were manufactured.
Still in 2014, production of high-definition systems began for the local market in India.
