In an increasingly globalized market, the need for harmonized regulations that protect consumers and facilitate trade is crucial. Resolution 2310 of 2022, which establishes the Andean Technical Regulation for Cosmetic Product Labeling, addresses this need by defining the minimum requirements that cosmetic labels must meet in the member countries of the Andean Community (CAN).
At Suprapak, as experts in shrink sleeve packaging solutions, we understand the importance of these regulations for our clients and the essential role we play in their implementation.
What Does Resolution 2310 of 2022 Establish?
This regulation aims to ensure that cosmetic product labels provide clear, truthful, and accessible information to consumers. Some of the key aspects that must be included on labels are:
- Product Identification: Commercial name and function of the cosmetic.
- Manufacturer or Importer Information: Name, address, and country of origin.
- Ingredient List: Ordered by decreasing concentration.
- Net Content: Expressed in grams (g) or milliliters (ml).
- Warnings and Precautions: Information on proper product use.
- Batch and Expiration Date: Essential for product traceability and safety.
Impact on the Packaging Industry
Compliance with Resolution 2310 requires significant adaptations in label design and functionality. Shrink sleeve packaging, like the solutions we develop at Suprapak, offers a versatile way to meet these requirements by providing a large and flexible printing area.
Our technology allows us to integrate elements such as:
- QR codes to offer additional consumer information.
- Durable materials that ensure label readability throughout the product’s lifecycle.
- Custom designs that combine regulatory compliance with brand aesthetics.
Opportunities for Innovation
At Suprapak, we see this regulation as an opportunity to innovate and strengthen our value proposition. We are committed to developing packaging solutions that not only meet legal requirements but are also sustainable and aligned with global trends.
For instance, our shrink sleeve labels with washable inks contribute to efficient PET packaging recycling, promoting a positive environmental impact. This type of innovation not only complies with regulations but also reinforces our clients’ commitment to sustainability.
Resolution 2310 of 2022 is a significant step towards regulatory harmonization in the Andean region, benefiting both consumers and the cosmetics industry. At Suprapak, we recognize that implementing these regulations presents challenges, but also opportunities to continue offering shrink sleeve packaging solutions that combine innovation, sustainability, and regulatory compliance.
