What Is Food-Grade Meat Branding Ink?
Food-grade meat branding ink is a specially formulated, edible ink used to stamp or mark meat products for identification, grading, traceability, and quality assurance purposes. Unlike standard industrial inks, these are non-toxic, safe for direct food contact, and compliant with strict food safety regulations.
Common applications include:
- Carcass stamping at abattoirs
- Grade marking (e.g., MSA, export grades)
- Traceability and batch identification
- Quality control stamps
- Inspection and compliance markings
