Extensive Vetting Process Completed to Gain Partnership with Leading Printing and Coding Tech Company
Edmonton, AB, Canada – Jet Marking Systems (JMS), a leading provider of label application solutions and ancillary equipment, has become a Certified Partner for product identification and traceability solutions manufacturer Markem-Imaje.
