THE BUYING ANSWER

Start with a clear definition.

Use the order and receiver's confirmed requirements to identify the carton, contents and handling information. Keep the artwork linked to the final packing list. Do not invent destination marks or assume every customer uses the same layout.

The decision behind the detail.

A correct mark printed on the wrong carton creates a receiving error. Review application as well as artwork.
