Artwork Checks
We review packaging artwork, labels and manuals before products reach the market to ensure they meet applicable regulatory requirements.
Online product texts and warnings can also be included where relevant.
An essential compliance solution
Artwork Check service
Our Artwork Check service is designed to mitigate risks by providing a comprehensive review and validation of your product labels, packaging artwork, and manuals, against current legal standards. With Artwork Check, you can rest assured that your product-related artwork will meet applicable EU, EEA and UK regulatory requirements, including relevant EU Member State national requirements. You will be ready for the scrutiny of market surveillance authorities and keeping your business ahead in the compliance game.
Where relevant, we can also review online product information, such as website texts, product descriptions, warnings and claims, to ensure consistency between your packaging and the information provided to consumers online.
Why labelling is so important
Preventing "low-hanging fruit" cases with Authorities
Regulatory bodies and market surveillance authorities are ever more vigilant in scrutinising products. Flaws in labelling represent low-hanging fruit for them. Incorrect or inadequate labelling not only risks regulatory penalties but can also trigger product recalls, consumer mistrust, and subsequent brand damage. The repercussions are not merely legal but also have a long-lasting impact on your brand’s reputation and market position.
