In the drag-and-drop email editor: Insert > Custom HTML > paste. You can paste the WHOLE thing into one Custom HTML module, or paste each numbered section into its own Custom HTML module if you want to reorder/duplicate/A-B test pieces independently.

The Line Check
A quick, no-pitch look at what’s worth re-checking on your line — coding, inspection, and packaging — before a retailer or an inspector checks it for you.
●  Issue 01 — Choosing the Right Fit, Not Just the Newest Machine
Most coding, inspection, and packaging equipment gets chosen once — when a line first opens — and rarely gets a second look. But line speeds change. Packaging formats change. SKU counts grow. And the retailer or USDA/FDA inspection that finally tests your setup doesn’t care which machine was right five years ago.
Every other month, we’ll send a short, practical read like this one — no sales pitch, just what we’re seeing on real plant floors across food, pharma, and industrial production in the Southeast.
1 What’s worth re-checking this issue
Continuous Inkjet coding example Continuous Inkjet CIJ The workhorse for high-speed date and lot coding on bottles, cartons, and flexible pouches. Right fit when formats vary line to line.
Thermal Transfer Overprinting example Thermal Transfer Overprinting TTO Sharp, high-contrast codes on film — the format most flowpack snack and bakery lines run on. Lower consumable cost than people expect.
Laser marking example Laser Marking PERMANENT No ink, no ribbons, no consumables to restock. A code that survives washdown, cold storage, and rough handling.
X-ray inspection example X-Ray Inspection FOREIGN BODY Catches bone, glass, and dense plastics a metal detector lets straight through. Increasingly a buyer requirement, not a nice-to-have.
Checkweigher and metal detector combo example Checkweigher + Metal Detector COMBO UNIT Two compliance checkpoints in the footprint of one machine — useful when floor space is the real constraint, not budget.
Not sure which of these applies to your line?
We’ll come look. No pitch, no obligation — just an honest read on whether your current setup still fits your speed, your SKUs, and your next audit.

From the Case Files
A South Florida meat processor needed vacuum packaging that held up at 30–43°F — and they needed it running before the end of the month. We measured, configured, and had it operational on schedule, with coding integration already mapped for phase two.
