01 / FOOD & COLD CHAIN

From the cold cabinet to the gift box, product information and packaging arrive together.

When you buy food labels and packaging boxes, the application temperature, packaging surface, information version and packing method have to be confirmed together. Zhushang starts from the existing label samples and your packaging requirement, and helps you sort out the design, proofing and delivery conditions.

Suitable for: food brands, frozen seafood, meat products, prepackaged food and festive gift purchasing

Existing seafood label samples; they do not represent frozen performance test results.

01 / YOUR CHALLENGES

These are worth resolving before you order.

01

Lifting edges or bubbling after chilling?

First record whether the pack was damp at application, the packaging material and the storage and transport process. Proof on the actual packaging, and agree the inspection items before and after chilling.

02

Same product, but the bag label and the box information do not match?

Put the product name, specification, language and barcode into one information sheet, match it to the label artwork and the outer box artwork separately, and confirm a single version.

03

The gift box looks good, but the product does not fit inside?

Discuss the box type by unit size, quantity, total weight and arrangement, and confirm the fitting sample, carry and transport requirements first.

02 / LABELS & PACKAGING

Labels and packaging boxes, in one brief.

Retail packaging labels

Product name, specification, batch area and application format; materials are assessed against the packaging and temperature conditions.

Food outer boxes and gift boxes

Combination quantity, box type, insert and carry method; the parts that come into contact with food need their material requirements confirmed separately.

Materials, processes, order quantity and lead time are assessed against your actual requirement; confirm the applicable samples and the scope we can take on before scheduling production.

03 / WORK WITH ZHUSHANG

Work with Zhushang to bring the requirement down to detail.

Samples you can compare against

Seafood label samples can be used to discuss wording hierarchy and sheet-fed formats; make the layout requirement specific first.

See the basis and method ↗

Organise the label and the outer box together

List the wording, dimensions and versions of both packaging types in one checklist, so the same information is not checked over and over.

See the basis and method ↗

Confirm the sample first, then talk about volume

Confirm the applicable scope through the packaging, temperature and inspection records; the quotation is based on one agreed specification.

See the basis and method ↗
Is a minimum temperature enough for frozen food labels?

No. You also need the temperature at application, the condition of the packaging surface, the storage and transport time, and the temperature changes. Material suitability must be confirmed with the actual packaging and by the method agreed by both sides.

Can food labels and gift boxes be quoted together?

You can submit both requirements together, listing dimensions, quantity, materials and artwork status separately. The scope we take on, the samples and the delivery arrangements are confirmed after assessment.

Can an existing label image be applied directly to food information?

Not directly. Samples are for layout reference only; the product information is provided by the brand and, once approved by their responsible staff, becomes the confirmed artwork for that product.

05 / START YOUR BRIEF

Bring these three kinds of information,
and start a concrete discussion.

You can submit what you have now and mark undecided items “to be confirmed”.

  1. 01Food and packaging type, and where the label goes
  2. 02Size, quantity and information version for each design
  3. 03Application and storage conditions, and what goes into the gift box
