Label Printing for export to United States
Label Printing are among the lines we supply most into the USA, where food processing, FMCG and retail make up much of the industrial base.
Label Printing for United States
Demand in the USA is built on food processing, FMCG, retail, engineering and electronics. Food processing, FMCG and retail 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 label printing the question is always artwork proofed and colour recorded, so a reorder matches the first run. USA conditions are manageable, which widens the material choice. The surface still decides the adhesive though — a chilled or oily pack in the USA needs the same care as anywhere else.
Most food work comes to us as a family of SKUs rather than one label, so the sensible economy is a common die and a shared base plate with only the variable panel changing.
The USA orders for label printing arrive 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 the USA is food and supplement labels and cosmetic labels, so a label printing enquiry from the USA is normally priced and consolidated alongside those. Nhava Sheva to New York, Savannah or Los Angeles is the leg it travels, and a temperate destination is what the adhesive bond has to be specified against for the USA.
What the USA requires
Cosmetic and personal-care labelling rules are the ones that bite here. In the USA that means FDA 21 CFR Part 101 food labelling, Nutrition Facts panel format, FSMA requirements, FTC origin marking, Proposition 65 warnings for California. Language on pack: English.
We set label printing artwork against those the USA requirements and proof it with your importer there before any plate or die is cut.
Getting it to the USA
Nhava Sheva to New York, Savannah or Los Angeles — 22 to 32 days. 32 days in a container is long enough for the hold to swing between damp nights and hot afternoons many times over. Landing into United States, the usual complaint is not failure but curl at the liner edge, which becomes a storage question once the label printing are off the ship.
