Packaging Labels for export to Philippines
Packaging Labels are among the lines we supply most into Philippines, where food processing and FMCG make up much of the industrial base.
Packaging Labels for Philippines
Demand in Philippines is built on food processing, FMCG, pharmaceuticals, beverage bottling and brand protection. Food processing and FMCG in particular buy this range steadily, and the work is repeat work — the die, the material code and the colour target stay on file so a reorder is a phone call rather than a fresh setup.
What decides the specification
With packaging labels the question is always sacks, drums and tubs that are handled hard and stored outdoors. Humidity is the constraint in Philippines. Lamination keeps the print from going soft, and an adhesive rated to 45°C keeps the corner from lifting before the pack reaches a Philippines shelf.
Shipper labels on food cartons go into cold store, and board that has taken up moisture in transit will not hold an adhesive specified for dry warehouse conditions.
A Philippines order for packaging labels arrives against a seasonal pack calendar, so the reorder is usually the same die with a new flavour panel. What already moves from our floor to Philippines is food and beverage labels and cosmetic and personal care labels, so a packaging labels enquiry from Philippines is normally priced and consolidated alongside those. Nhava Sheva to Manila is the leg it travels, and a humid destination is what the adhesive bond has to be specified against for Philippines.
What Philippines requires
Chemical and dangerous-goods marking is the governing regime for this category. In Philippines that means FDA Philippines licence and product notification numbers, DTI requirements, English labelling with local importer details. Language on pack: English and Filipino.
We set packaging labels artwork against those Philippines requirements and proof it with your importer there before any plate or die is cut.
Getting it to Philippines
Nhava Sheva to Manila — 12 to 16 days. 16 days in a container is long enough for the hold to swing between damp nights and hot afternoons many times over. Landing into Philippines’s humid air, board and paper take up moisture fast once the doors open, so packaging labels for Philippines travel shrink-wrapped on the pallet.

Questions
Packaging Labels in Philippines — questions we are asked
Do you supply packaging labels in Philippines?
Yes. Everything is manufactured at our own works in Rajouri Garden, New Delhi and despatched from there. Nhava Sheva to Manila — 12 to 16 days.
What do Philippines customers use packaging labels for?
Food processing and FMCG mainly. Food and beverage labels, cosmetic and personal care labels, pharmaceutical labels, holograms — this range covers the part of that list it applies to.
Is there a minimum order for packaging labels to Philippines?
No fixed minimum for packaging labels. Philippines consignments are quoted per job and usually consolidated with the other lines going the same way, which is what makes a smaller Philippines run workable. Nhava Sheva to Manila — 12 to 16 days.
How do Philippines buyers usually order packaging labels?
Against a seasonal pack calendar, so the reorder is usually the same die with a new flavour panel — that is the pattern across most of our Philippines work in this range. Tell us the quantity and the reorder interval and we will quote the die and the material once, then hold both on file for Philippines repeats.
