FAQ

Can You Print a QR Code on Eggs?

Yes. Egg printers with sufficient resolution (300–600 DPI) can print scannable QR codes directly on the shell. These codes can link to farm stories, recipes, or traceability records.

QR codes are popular for anti-counterfeiting and farm-to-table marketing: a shopper scans the egg to see where and when it was produced. Red QR codes are common for visibility.

Use a high-resolution head and a clean, high-contrast code, and test scanning on the actual shell before launch.
