6 Page Booklet on a Bottle

Expanded Content Label - Glue Bound 6 Page Booklet on a Bottle

11 Panel Expanded Content Labels (ECL) has 11 folded panels that open up and can be resealed back into their original position after the opening. The 11 folded panels provide significantly more real estate for information than a conventional label. The 11 Panel ECL provides the flexibility of having a full graphic on the cover while providing multiple panels underneath. The front label space allows the label to display captivating graphics or brilliant designs and the pertinent information that needs to be on the front. The ability to have multiple panels allows for the information to be placed beneath the front of the label. There are many configurations on constructing the number of pages, size, and materials for this ECL, making it highly suitable as a replacement for the traditional information insert. By eliminating the need for an insert, ECLs are a cost-saving solution. 

 

Overview of Glue Bound 6 Page Booklet on a Bottle ECL

Extended Content Labels are the perfect label solution for displaying high quantities of patient information on healthcare packaging. The 11 panel ECL is suitable for several packaging types that require multi-language and extensive regulatory information. The panels contain all the regulatory information and any requirements necessary for the medication.
