Why do authorities check artwork first<\/strong><\/em>
and how YOU can use that to your advantage<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cLabels, packaging, manuals: fastest to inspect, easiest to fail. Unless you use them to your advantage.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why do authorities check the packaging, product label, and manual first?<\/strong>
Because it\u2019s the easiest place for them to start \u2014 and the fastest place to find mistakes.
– Your product label.
– Your packaging.
– Your manual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And this applies to every role in the chain.<\/strong>
If you\u2019re a retailer, fulfilment provider, or wholesaler, online or brick-and-mortar, you own the risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Private label<\/strong> -> you are a quasi-manufacturer
Non-EU brands<\/strong> -> you are the importer
Third-party brands<\/strong> -> you are the distributor<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In artwork checks and in #PCMS, we lead the market. And from what we\u2019ve seen? We could write a book.

<\/em>How to benefit instead of bleed:<\/strong> artwork checks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An Artwork Check reveals \u2014 fast:
<\/strong>– Whether third-party brand suppliers are as compliant as they claim.
– If your templates still meet requirements.
– How well you handle new markets (languages) and\/or new technology (symbols, instructions).
– The gaps autorities will find, before they do.

Why does it work?
<\/strong>It is a proper stress test. Getting this right requires a mature, well\u2011organised team <\/strong>\u2014 internally and across your supply chain. Unless you\u2019re sure every link<\/strong> runs at that level, the risk is already built in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Starting now \u2014 it is 1-2-3
<\/strong>1. Pick a supplier and a product.
2. E-mail us the PDF artwork, and mention the target countries and languages.
3. Let the market-leading artwork check team scrutinise it.

???? Send your file to artwork@productip.com<\/a> <\/a>
The easiest win in compliance is the one you take now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What happens next?
<\/strong>–  If it passes, great \u2014 We\u2019ll suggest you take it as your post-market surveillance cost.
–  If it fails, you push it back to the supplier who promised it was fine.

Either way, it\u2019s the cheapest risk you\u2019ll remove this month.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
