Recover affected stock with a defined rework route
Relabelling & overlabelling
services.
A changed barcode, outdated statement, market-specific requirement or presentation fault can stop otherwise saleable stock from moving. Relabelling and overlabelling turn that issue into a controlled production task, with the correction and finished standard agreed first.

A clear answer
What is
Relabelling & overlabelling?
Relabelling changes labels on existing stock; overlabelling applies an additional label over specified existing information. State whether the old label stays, is removed or is partly covered, and provide approved artwork showing what must remain visible.
When this service is a good fit
- A barcode or product statement has changed
- Stock needs adapting for a market or sales channel
- A promotion requires an additional label
- Affected packs need inspection and repacking

Service questions
Useful answers for
planning the job.
01What information can an overlabel correct?+
An approved overlabel may update barcodes, product information, market-specific text or promotional artwork. Identify the information to cover and retain, and have the product owner approve the correction and intended use before the application task is agreed.
02Can existing stock be inspected during relabelling?+
Yes. Inspection points and the acceptable finished reference can be included in the brief, then combined with correction and repacking where appropriate.
