IGD guidelines for clearer labelling
In 2003 IGD convened a working group to review and update Packaging Legibility Guidelines which were first published in 1994.
‘Packaging Legibility: Recommendations for improvement’ was published by the group in 2003 and remains a relevant document for those designing labels or the information they contain.
The report includes guidance on:
- Overall pack layout
- Text layout
- Type size
- Type font
- Titles and Headings
- Small labels
- Colour
- Print Finishes
- Functional icons
- Date and Quantity Marking
- Food Sold Loose Over the Counter
- Food Sold by Caterers
