Markets | Labelling
Written By John Fieldsend

Especially in the food and beverage market, labelling needs to be eye-catching, easy to produce, food-safe and compliant with regulations. Creating food labels can be time consuming and the results can be unappealing and inconsistent.

Handwritten laminated paper labels often peel apart, stain or discolour easily and the fibres can even contaminate food products. You have plenty to think about during your working day; don’t waste time handwriting labels when you could be creating new product ranges and keeping your customers happy.

Challenges

Here, challenges range across:

  • Attracting attention: create professional, consistent eye-catching labels
  • Labelling on-demand: change prices or ranges quickly and easily to deliver an on-the-go promotion
  • Compliance: keep customers informed – for instance about allergens and ingredients
  • Safety: produce food-safe cards
  • Improving security: make it harder for people to gain access to places they’re not entitled to
  • Protecting data: keeping customer information and intellectual property secure
