Limitations and risks

You can find a list of limitations and risks related to the Label Creator in this document.

Why do I need to create label files?

Product and packaging labelling is mandatory for essentially all consumer products sold in the US, EU and UK. Some labelling requirements apply to all products, while others only apply to certain product types or age groups.

What should be included in the label file?

The specific information depends on the regulations, directives, standards, and other compliance requirements applicable to a particular product. You must create label files based on what is required and specified in the latest version of the relevant regulation, guidance page or other source.

Where should the labels be placed?

The placement depends on what is required and specified in the latest version of the relevant regulation, guidance page or other source. Certain labels must be printed on the product, while in other cases you have the option to affix labels on the packaging or accompanying documentation.

As mentioned, you must follow the requirements as specified in the latest version of the relevant regulation, guidance page or other source.

At what stage should I create label files?

You need to ensure that your products and the packaging are correctly labelled at the time of manufacturing. You must therefore create all relevant label files before your products enter production.

How do I know if my label is correct?

You can request a label review from several third-parties from within the platform. As such, you can have your label files reviewed by a third-party such as TUV Rheinland or QIMA before printing these.

This can help you reduce the risk of printing incorrect labels on your product and packaging, which can be expensive to correct afterwards. Note that the terms of service of your selected third-party applies.

How can I request a label review?

You can request a label review and upload your label files using the product testing form, or the dedicated label review form. It is also important that you ask the service provider to explain on what basis they will review the label. The scope must be clear before you proceed with a label review.

What am I supposed to do with the label files I create?

You must submit all label files to the manufacturer of the product. Before that, we recommend that you request a label review.

How do you keep the label creator up to date?

The label creator only provides a layout. It does not serve as a template that is based on any particular legislation or other source.

You must insert label information and graphics based on requirements specified in the latest version of the relevant regulation, guidance page, or other source.

What can happen if my products are not correctly labeled?

Products that are not correctly labeled can be subject to recalls, or removed from marketplaces such as Amazon. As such, we recommend that you book a label review before affixing label information on the product, packaging, or documentation during production.
