Basic Labeling Requirements for CBD Products

Written by Ken Mogensen | Feb 25, 2021 5:39:00 PM

CBD is a new and ever-evolving industry, so it can present many struggles for the businesses selling CBD products to work through. One of these problems is the labeling for products. The lack of regulations combined with the newness of the industry leaves much uncertainty when it comes to labeling. Luckily for you, we have some basic labeling requirements for CBD products that could help.

Business Name and Location

The consumer should be able to contact the manufacturer or distributor of the product. Including the name and location of the business will make this easier for consumers. Based on the requirements of this industry, you should include this information on the outer and inner packaging of the product. If you really want to make it easier for your customers to get ahold of your business, including the phone number on the label can also be beneficial.

Product Identity

Consumers should be able to tell by the label what the CBD product does. Make sure to include what your product is or what it does on the product display panel. This not only provides your consumers with the correct information but also allows you to be as transparent as possible. Putting this on both the inner and outer label isn’t required, but it doesn’t hurt.

Ingredients

All the ingredients that the product includes should be clearly listed on the outer packaging. Individuals purchasing the product should know exactly what’s in it for their safety and security.

Disclosure of Facts

Making sure you fully hit all the right details—such as the expiration date, manufacturing date, batch codes, and barcodes—on the label is key. Not including these pieces of information can be dangerous and harmful to consumers. Make sure your labeling for your CBD products covers all the pertinent information.

After making sure you’ve hit all these points and correctly implemented all the other basic labeling requirements for CBD products, you can then take the next step of implementing an inkjet coding printer. The quality of the printed code is critical because this information means nothing to the consumer if they can’t read it.
