Increased Demand for Labeling in Food & Beverage Industries will Drive Braille Label Sales. Labeling has undergone a few changes over the last few years. Companies and brands are getting creative with textures, layouts, sizes, colors, patterns, retro styles, and other ways to appeal to their customers.
Although, with the development of new technology, label production has been taken to a whole new level. In order to gain more and more customers, companies are becoming more aware of the need to not only attract them but also make sure to accommodate or satisfy their customers.
To communicate important information to visually impaired customers on drug packaging, Braille labels are commonly used in the pharmaceutical sector. Various satin finish face materials are used to manufacture Braille labels to match existing drug packaging.
The packaging sizes can be customized based on the existing drug containers and packaging. To ensure that braille labels are embossed smoothly, various presentation styles are offered.
An estimated one in three Europeans experiences sight loss, according to the European Blind Union (EBU), which estimates that there are more than 30 Million blind or partially sighted people living in Europe.
There is an increasing concern regarding obesity and overweight, which is occurring at the same time. Approximately 30-70% of adults in EU member states are overweight, and between 10 and 30% of them are obese, according to estimates by the World Health Organization (WHO).
One-third of all eleven-year-olds across the bloc are now considered overweight or obese, as are infants and children whose weight has been steadily increasing as a consequence.
The food industry is equipped with touch-sensitive technology. In general, tactile labeling needs to be improved drastically in order to make it more effective. In order to make braille accessible to the visually impaired, it is extremely difficult to use cardboard, since the braille becomes completely flattened once the boxes are stacked.
The idea is to empower consumers to make healthier eating choices by implementing mandatory nutritional tables and voluntary food labels to further expand the braille label market. A variety of industries are using technologies to implement braille labels, including pharmaceuticals, foods & beverages, household products, and paper & printing.
Manufacturers are implementing 3D technologies where labels are intended to be used in the same way as standard braille. European countries are becoming more and more dependent on braille. Many U.S. companies are slowly adopting braille for product labels and packaging as a method of labeling. L'Occitane and Coca-Cola have both launched products with Braille labels.
With the advent of modernization, the technology has evolved so far to overcome the challenges faced by the differently abled people. Some of the companies in the packaging industry also introduced few packaging solutions that help them to recognize products readily.
Braille label is an example of such product which allows blinds people to read text with the help of their fingertips. Also, these labels are used to produce custom stickers which are used for different applications.
Braille labels are clear, blank self-adhesive labels applied to labels items such as household appliances, canned foods, greeting cards, books, and CDs. These labels also find its application in pharmaceutical packaging.
Packaging industry is witnessing a strong growth through the introduction of new products with high technological advancements in the last few years. Use of braille labels has evolved to be used as standard packaging product on several products in the healthcare, household, and paper industry.
