Labeling
What Is the primary purpose of product labels? A label is an essential feature of a packaged product that aims to provide information about your product to potential customers. Product labels allow consumers to know the content of the product, especially the presence of allergens and how to properly use it. Although, the main purpose of product labels is to inform, they do have additional functions such as, providing your product identity through branding, making product categorization easier for products with variants, promoting persuasive characteristics of your products, and protecting consumers as well as your brand by complying with labeling regulations.
