Benz Packaging is a manufacturing-first partner for
traceability companies. If you build RFID/NFC tags, GS1 QR / Digital Link,
EPCIS event platforms, or IoT sensors, we’ll integrate them directly
into pouches, cartons, labels, trays, crates and export skids for the
automotive supply chain—from pilot to global scale.
We’re backing this with our recent multi-year investment
plan in new facilities and technology, including expanded plants and Hubs
in India, Italy, Japan, Indonesia, Vietnam, Mexico, UAE, Malaysia —purpose-built
for next-gen converting, printing, and secure labelling. (BENZ

Why
collaborate with a packaging manufacturer?
Fewer integration headaches: When IDs, sensors and
tamper features are part of the pack spec, operations don’t need extra
steps or rework.
Standards built-in: We print and verify GS1-compliant
2D codes (DataMatrix / Digital Link QR) and set up parent–child
aggregation (item, carton, pallet) your platform can read via EPCIS
2.0—including sensor data if you have it.
Future-ready automotive: EU’s Battery Regulation will
require QR-linked Digital Battery Passports (2027). If you’re in EV
modules, packs or service returns, partnering with us puts the right data
carrier on the right pack now. (Consilium)
Real-world risk reduction: Counterfeit airbag
inflators and safety components are under intense regulatory scrutiny. On-pack
authentication and serialized shipping cut risk for OEMs and dealers. (Road
& Track)
What we
build together
1) Serialized
VCI Spares Kits (Anti-Counterfeit & Warranty-Ready)
- Your
tech: GS1 QR / Digital Link + EPCIS, optional NFC/RFID.
- Our
pack: VCI paper/film bags, printed labels, tamper tape, serialized
cartons, optional shock/humidity indicators.
- Outcome:
Scan-to-authenticity for dealers and e-commerce, faster warranty
decisions, cleaner returns trail.
2) CKD/Export
Engine & Axle Packs (Scan-to-Docs)
- Your
tech: QR/RFID + cloud doc vault for COAs, pack photos, MSDS, customs
docs.
- Our
pack: 3/4-layer barrier films, container desiccants, wooden
pallets/crates with rugged labels/plates.
- Outcome:
One scan at the port shows everything; fewer disputes and delays on
arrival.
3) Line-Side
Kitting Crates (RFID + Reusable Logistics)
- Your
tech: RFID middleware, handhelds/gates, WIP dashboards.
- Our
pack: Foldable bins/crates with embedded RFID plates, inner VCI
wraps/foams.
- Outcome:
Real-time visibility to reduce line stoppages and shrinkage.
4) EV
Service-Return Packs (Battery Passport-Ready)
- Your
tech: QR/Digital Link tied to a battery-passport or service record,
optional sensor logging.
- Our
pack: Protective liners, vented housings, dangerous-goods labeling,
serialized outer crates.
- Outcome:
Safe, compliant reverse logistics + a digital audit trail aligned with EU
timelines. (Consilium)
(We also support adjacent FMCG/pharma use cases;
automotive is our first shared sandbox.)
Where we
collaborate (geo-optimized hubs)
India: Delhi-NCR (Manesar, Gurugram), Pune, Chennai,
Bengaluru, Ahmedabad/Surat, Mumbai/JNPT.
Europe: Stuttgart, Munich, Wolfsburg, Turin, Modena.
North America: Detroit, Windsor-Essex, Spartanburg, Columbus.
APAC: Nagoya, Tokyo, Osaka, Ulsan, Rayong, Bangkok, Ho Chi Minh City.
If you need local converting partners for speed to market,
we can coordinate.
Proof
we’re building for the future
- Investment
& capacity: Our multi-year expansion (Haryana, Chennai; new heavy-duty/wood,
extrusion, printing and corrugation) is live—designed for high-throughput 2D
printing, secure labels, and RFID integration. (BENZ
Packaging Solutions (P) Ltd.)
- Standards
alignment: GS1 EPCIS 2.0 (events + sensors) and Sunrise 2027
(2D at POS/POC) are baked into our label templates and SOPs. (GS1)
- Risk
context: Ongoing warnings about counterfeit safety parts
underline the need for on-pack authenticity that dealers and inspectors
can verify instantly. (NHTSA)
- EV
readiness: The EU Battery Passport requires QR-linked digital
records from February 2027—we can place the right data carrier on
the right pack now. (Consilium)
FAQs
- What
kind of technology partner are you looking for?
We’re looking for traceability-tech companies (RFID, NFC, serialised
QR/GS1, IoT sensors, EPCIS/cloud platforms) who want to embed their
technology into packaging systems and scale in the automotive supply
chain.
- What
will Benz Packaging provide and what will our role be?
You bring the technology (tag/inlay, software, APIs, cloud) and we
provide the manufacturing integration (packaging formats,
print/verification lines, placement, aggregation). Together we co-develop
a pilot and then scale.
- How
quickly can a collaboration move from pilot to scale?
We aim for a pilot within ~6–8 weeks: define format ? sample build ?
live pilot ? review ? scale. After successful pilot, the collaboration can
go broader across SKUs and plants.
- What
standards must be supported?
Packaging must support GS1 2D codes (DataMatrix or Digital Link QR),
parent-child aggregation (item ? carton ? pallet), and the technology must
integrate with packaging workflows. Additional standards (RFID UHF/NFC)
are welcome.
- How
do you handle intellectual property and data ownership?
You keep your core technology and platform. We handle packaging
integration. Data events from the pack (scan, tag read, authentication) go
into your cloud or joint portal. Contract clarifies ownership, branding,
and revenue-share.
- What
are the benefits for the partner?
Access to high-volume packaging flows in
automotive/factory logistics. A manufacturing partner ready to install
print/verify lines and integrate your tech. A shared go-to-market opportunity
in India and export markets.
Call for
collaborators and automotive programs
- RFID/NFC
& sensor makers: Let’s co-locate inlays, optimize read rates, and
publish a joint automotive case.
- GS1/EPCIS
platforms: Plug our line events into your repository; we’ll ship a
live pilot in one lane and scale.
- OEMs/Tier-1s/Aftermarket:
