Labelling for pharma: Arca Etichette’s integrated approach
The technological solutions at CPHI Milan (6-8 October 2026, stand 11D53)
In the pharmaceutical industry, labelling is a critical element in ensuring regulatory compliance, patient safety and product traceability throughout the entire supply chain. Within this framework, Arca Etichette positions itself as a specialised solution provider, offering technologies and organisational expertise specifically developed to meet the stringent requirements of the pharmaceutical sector.
A long-established player in the pharma market, Arca Etichette has built deep sector expertise over decades, becoming a trusted partner for companies seeking not merely a supplier, but a genuine solution provider capable of understanding and anticipating the needs of an industry in constant evolution.
A broad portfolio spanning multi-format and security applications
The product range encompasses a wide range of self-adhesive and sleeve solutions for secondary packaging: labels for bottles and containers of various sizes, “no-label look” solutions for ampoules, multi-page and multi-layer labels for extended information content, as well as specialised applications including hanger labels for infusion products, wrap labels for small-diameter containers and Braille printing systems.
Particular emphasis is placed on security and traceability solutions, including tamper-evident seals compliant with Directive 2011/62/EU, serialised labels and track-and-trace systems that can be integrated into data management processes along the supply chain.
Multi-platform technology
On the technological front, Arca Etichette combines analogue printing platforms – including UV and UV LED flexography, screen printing and offset printing – with digital technologies such as inkjet and digital offset. These are frequently deployed into hybrid configurations to optimise print quality, flexibility and production efficiency.
Quality and expertise
Quality assurance is assured through 100% video inspection systems and documented procedures covering every stage of production, from material selection through to batch release. This approach is complemented by in-house technical expertise in selecting the most suitable substrates and adhesives for specific application requirements.
Through a structured operational model and continuous investment in technological innovation, Arca Etichette supports pharmaceutical companies in developing labelling solutions that are compliant, safe and high-performing. The company not only contributes to packaging efficiency and product protection, but also demonstrates a strong commitment to ESG principles as a Benefit Corporation and certified B Corp.
