Domino India has announced the launch of the Cx150i Oil, a high-resolution piezo inkjet printer designed specifically for direct-to-box coding on corrugated cartons and other porous packaging materials.
(Domino has also launched the Cx150i UV, a high-resolution piezo inkjet printer for durable, high-quality direct-to-box coding on semi-porous and non-porous packaging materials, which we have published as a separate article).Â
Corrugated packaging continues to be the most widely used secondary packaging format across India’s food, beverage, FMCG, building materials and general manufacturing industries. As manufacturers look to improve coding quality while keeping operating costs under control, there is growing demand for solutions that deliver reliable, high-resolution printing directly onto corrugated boxes without adding complexity to production.
The Cx150i Oil has been developed to address this need by combining Domino’s proven piezo inkjet technology with a non-toxic, vegetable oil-based ink to produce crisp, durable codes directly on porous substrates. Manufacturers can print text, logos, graphics, QR codes, GS1-compliant 1D and 2D barcodes, batch details and serialized information with excellent clarity while eliminating the need for adhesive labels.
Purpose-built for corrugated secondary packaging applications, the solution is ideal for manufacturers across food processing, beverages, FMCG, consumer goods, logistics, e-commerce and industrial manufacturing, where reliable box coding is essential for product identification, warehouse operations and supply chain traceability.
Delivering print resolutions of up to 600 dpi, the Cx150i Oil enables manufacturers to produce high-quality variable data while maintaining production efficiency. Its intuitive QuickStep touchscreen interface, modular architecture, and 500 ml ink supply support uninterrupted production through in-operation replenishment, helping minimize downtime and simplify day-to-day operations.
The use of vegetable oil-based ink also provides an environmentally responsible alternative to conventional coding methods. By printing directly onto corrugated boxes, manufacturers can reduce their dependence on adhesive labels and associated consumables, thereby lowering waste and streamlining packaging operations.
Sachin Mall, assistant vice president – products, applications & solutions, Domino Printech India, said, “Corrugated boxes remain the backbone of secondary packaging across multiple industries, making dependable and economical box coding more important than ever. The Cx150i Oil has been specifically engineered for porous substrates, delivering high-resolution print quality using vegetable oil-based ink while maintaining low operating costs. It enables manufacturers to produce clear, durable codes directly on corrugated packaging, helping improve product identification and operational efficiency.”
Tanuj Agrawal, managing director, Domino Printech India, said, “Manufacturers today are focused on improving productivity while carefully managing operating costs and sustainability goals. Reliable secondary packaging identification is critical to efficient supply chains, and businesses are looking for technologies that deliver consistent performance without increasing production complexity. The Cx150i Oil reflects Domino India’s commitment to providing practical, future-ready coding solutions that help manufacturers enhance efficiency while maintaining high coding standards.”
The Cx150i Oil combines high-resolution print performance, operational simplicity and economical ownership, making it a scalable coding solution for manufacturers seeking reliable direct-to-box printing across porous packaging applications.
