Pharmaceuticals, Chemicals, and Personal Care Products
____
Prescription drugs, cosmetics, cleaning supplies, and other commercial chemicals are all subject to different regulations determining what markings must be included on the packaging. Whether the product needs to follow the Fair Packaging and Labeling Act, Physician Labeling Rule Requirements, or an OTC drug monograph, the packaging must prominently display:
- Statement of identity (i.e., the name of the product and a generic description)
- Title and the location of manufacturer or distributor
- Expiration date
- Directions for use
- Control numbers
- Net quantity of contents
These rules apply to everything from highly-regulated substances and medications to detergent, acne cream, and even sunscreen. Failure to comply with these labeling regulations can result in extensive product recalls, federally enforced fines, and may even open your company up to the possibility of a lawsuit.
Fortunately, InkJet, Inc.’s industrial marking systems are designed for reliability and can help ensure that each of your products is coded in a legible, legally compliant manner. Depending on your line’s requirements, we offer:
- Continuous inkjet printers that are suited to continuous industrial production lines and 24/7 operation.
- Thermal inkjet printers that are light, compact, and sometimes able to be used in a handheld manner. These printers are better for intermittent production lines with lower volumes than that of what CIJ printers excel at.
Print-and-apply labelers that are quick-moving and versatile enough to handle printing and applying labels to primary, secondary, and tertiary packaging.
