How automated QC solutions help reduce the risk of a product recall, rework or liabilities
Errors in packaging are costly – not only in a material sense but also in terms of brand equity, reputation and future business success. According to the FDA, 50% of food and drug recalls can be attributed to labelling errors. With thousands of products, hundreds of SKUs and counting, keeping track of the accuracy of packaging has become a challenging and error-prone process. There is no question that quality control for printed packaging is essential for every company to be confident in releasing products to market.
This webinar will focus on how automated printed packaging quality control can help in this situation and specifically the different and varied techniques, systems and tools that can be used throughout the packaging workflow.
To speed up and ensure accuracy throughout the entire process, automated QC solutions use advanced artwork and text verification technology to electronically process both the original and revised files, ensuring the integrity of all artwork and textual component, centralize inspections and allow for early detection of errors. These solutions include:
- Packaging and Labelling Management Systems
- Text Inspection Software
- PDF Spellchecking
- Artwork Inspection Software
- Braille and Barcode Inspection
- Color and Measurement Solutions
- Print Inspection Solutions
Packaging represents so much more than just a product. It has become a challenge with more variants and products being introduced constantly and as the volume of products grows, so does the risk to brand integrity. Find out how the integration of a packaging and labelling management system combined with automated proofing tools into your packaging development process will help reduce the risk of a product recall, rework or liabilities and reduce your time to market.
