Scan rates, data files, and packing by PO that keep warehouse receiving smooth for international buyers.
Barcode and price tickets fail most often on data, not print quality. Confirm symbology (EAN-13, UPC-A, Code 128, QR), human-readable layout, and whether checksums are calculated in-file or at print. Provide a frozen Excel or EDI extract by PO, color, and size.
Export Quality & Technical Standards
When supplying to international buyers, especially in the European and North American markets, certifications such as OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 and FSC® (Forest Stewardship Council) are mandatory. These certifications ensure that the products are free from harmful substances and that paper-based packaging is sourced sustainably.
Woven Labels: Must match exact Pantone colors and maintain high-density yarn structure.
Hang Tags: Require precise offset printing and sustainable FSC-certified cardstock.
Care Labels: Must feature indelible ink that survives heavy industrial enzyme washes.
