Pharmaceutical Labels are often complex due to the wealth of regulatory and safety information which must be included on them, in addition to the manufacturer’s branding and an eye-catching design to make the product stand out on the shelf, and all within what is usually a relatively small surface area, whilst maintaining the very highest print quality to ensure clear, easy to read information and instructions.
With Mercian Labels’ many years of experience in producing bespoke labels for the pharmaceutical industry, you can rest assured that we can deliver everything required, often within very short lead times and always backed by the highest levels of customer service.
To provide the large amount of information required on one label, many pharmaceutical manufacturers and distributors prefer to use our multi-layer labels, (also known as peel & reveal labels or tri-part labels), where the top (outside) layer displays the product name and purpose, often combined with a colourful design and appropriate brand content; but more importantly with all the required regulatory and legislative information, including warning and potential side effects messages, pack size, instructions for storage, use and dosage, active and inactive ingredients and specific instructions for ‘at risk’ demographics such as pregnant women & children.
This top layer of the label can then be peeled back to reveal more detailed regulatory information and usage instructions, some of which may be in different languages, making the same pack suitable for sale in different countries & regions around the world.
Our variable data experts can also incorporate further traceability, compliance & regulatory information as well as 100% verified batch numbers, serialised barcodes & more, whilst raised ‘tactile’ print options provide warnings and other messaging for blind or partially sighted users.
