Direct answer

What is product relabelling?

Product relabelling applies an approved replacement, additional or over-label to suitable stock so it matches a defined version and placement standard.

It can support an artwork change, campaign, barcode update or corrective project. The label content remains the customer’s approved responsibility; Stockholm Ltd reviews the practical application route and required checks.

Contract labelling for products and packs

Labels can carry commercial, identification, barcode or campaign information. A change that looks small on screen can affect thousands of units, which makes version control and placement clarity essential.

Stockholm Ltd can review suitable labelling and relabelling jobs after seeing the product or pack surface, approved label, quantities, required position, current condition and deadline. If an existing label must be covered or removed, that requirement needs to be explicit.

Approved content before application

Stockholm Ltd does not decide what regulated or commercial information should appear on a customer’s product. The customer should supply the approved artwork or printed labels and identify each version unambiguously.

Placement and finish

Provide measurements, orientation guidance, photographs or an approved sample. The brief should also define what counts as unacceptable—for example wrinkles, exposed old information, poor adhesion, incorrect orientation or the wrong version.

Product labelling FAQs

Answer the version questions first.

If several products or artworks look similar, show the mapping between them in the brief.

Can barcode and promotional labels be applied?

Suitable barcode, promotional and information label projects can be reviewed when approved artwork, print quality, product surface, placement, quantities and checks are defined.

Can an old label be covered?

Over-labelling can be reviewed where the product, surface, approved information and finished standard make it suitable. Provide the current condition and the required cover-up result.

Who approves the label content?

The customer is responsible for supplying and identifying approved content. Stockholm Ltd reviews the application project rather than deciding what legal or commercial information should appear.

What is needed for a quote?

Provide the product format and surface, current label condition, approved new label, placement guide, version quantities, removal or cover-up requirement, finished standard and deadline.
