Stay up to date on best practices and the latest innovations in industrial labeling, marking and coding!
The Russian crypto-code law poses major challenges for pharmaceutical manufacturers: Starting January 2020, all marking systems must be capable of applying special identification codes to drug packaging. Weber Marking Systems has been following the latest developments in Russia in detail and has prepared itself for the necessary adjustments in advance.
A Unique Formula Identifier (UFI) will soon be required by law on the labels of products classified for health or physical hazards. The 16-digit code is intended to help Poison Centres to be able to precisely identify the chemicals involved in an incident and provide adequate medical advice. The industrial obligation has been introduced by Annex VIII to the CLP Regulation, which aligns the European Union system of classification, labelling and packaging of chemical substances and mixtures to the Globally Harmonised System (GHS).
Despite high quality standards in production lines, errors can occur along the value and supply chain. Whether it's contaminated food, unsafe components, or incorrectly declared ingredients, if defective products reach the market, manufacturers and distributors must take immediate action to protect consumers. Otherwise, they risk severe damage to their image, high losses in sales, and substantial claims for damages. Learn about industrial marking solutions that help to keep expenses for product recalls as low as possible.
