Encapsulated Leaflet Overview
Expanded Content Labels
What are Encapsulated Expanded Content Labels?
Encapsulated Expanded Content labels are the ideal solution when a large amount of content is required. Encapsulated expanded content labels are the perfect solution for replacing pharmaceutical inserts, displaying multi-lingual information, and clinical trials requirements. Booklets and leaflets are encapsulated by material that can also display the panel facing the outside of the product. The panel’s visibility allows for it to be easily read by patients or consumers.
