The
Dateright™ labelling system is a quick, simple and efficient way
for restaurants and fast food outlets to keep track of fresh food use.
Developed by
SATO, a world leader on food labelling systems and solutions,
Dateright will help ensure food preparation meets its regulatory
obligations while reducing expensive waste.
Label designs
are stored in the 'catalogue' memory of a portable SATO HT200e label
printer. Users simply call up the required design and enter the
number of labels needed - the printer automatically calculates
critical factors such as 'ready to prep' and 'discard' dates. at the
press of a button, a label is instantly printed and dispensed ready
for use.
The system
can be used to improve different food rotation and first in, first
out fresh ingredient management systems and is a simple but effective
way of reducing the risk of human error and freeing staff time for
more productive use. As a handy visual aid, Dateright labels can be
supplied part printed with seven different colour squares, one of
each day of the week.
"We
see all sorts of 'make do' and DIY labelling in food outlets, but the
consequences of getting it wrong, perhaps misreading a hand written
date, can be catastrophic for a food business," commented
Richard Scott of SATO's marketing team. "Dateright minimises
this risk and helps the business save money by keeping waste down."
The HT200e is
one of the most successful printers in the SATO range. No PC is
needed to run it and the stand-alone system can be mains or battery
powered. It has a tiny 9" x 5" footprint, small enough to
fit into even the smallest workspace, and can store thousands of
different label designs for instant recall.
The Dateright
system is so simple, it can be used by staff at all levels with
minimum training. However, businesses have the peace of mind of
knowing that it is backed by SATO UK's national sales and service
network and that the labels are made in the company's own UK factory,
guaranteeing their quality and performance.
