FMCG or CPG:

The FMCG world moves fast, with tight deadlines, complex approvals, and constant new product demands. With so many SKUs to manage and numerous regulations to meet, even the smallest artwork mistake can quickly snowball into costly delays. Without a clear, organized workflow, confusion and missed deadlines are inevitable.

Artwork management software is essential for FMCG brands to streamline these packaging workflows. By centralizing every asset, teams can track each version, reduce rework, and speed up approval cycles.  

With ManageArtworks, you can store every packaging and label asset in a single, centralized platform right from initial brief to final print-ready file. Furthermore, with our Copy Manager, teams can organize, review, and approve every piece of pack content, even across multiple languages, all from one place. This saves time and eliminates confusion, especially for brands with hundreds or thousands of SKUs.  

The platform goes further with AI-powered proofing tools that catch errors in fonts, spellings, and barcodes, while 3,000+ ready-to-use dielines make packaging creation faster. With instant 3D pack visualizations, teams can spot design flaws before hitting the shelf. Finally, Real-time project dashboards and workflow tools keep everyone aligned and on time, helping FMCG companies launch products faster, more accurately, and with fewer headaches.

Pharmaceutical: ‍

In the pharmaceutical industry, packaging and labeling aren’t just about brand identity, they’re crucial for patient safety. Labeling errors remain one of the top reasons for costly recalls, which can result in millions in financial losses and even risk lives. With regulatory demands intensifying, ensuring packaging accuracy and compliance is essential. This is where ManageArtworks makes an impact.

Acting as a centralized hub, our platform streamlines every stage of artwork management, from initial design and regulatory approvals to commercial release and eventual obsolescence. With real-time tracking, it allows pharmaceutical companies to manage key regulatory dates, keeping deadlines, effective dates, and production timelines in check to meet compliance seamlessly.  

ManageArtworks also integrates with ERP systems like SAP and Oracle to automatically link artwork revisions, providing unique identification for every revision. Additionally, the platform compares US leaflets and PILs across Word and PDF formats, highlighting text differences, formatting variations, and casing issues—especially useful for checking Drug Facts text across panels.

Cosmetics:

Creating beautiful, shelf-ready packaging for cosmetics is only half the battle. The other half? Strict regulations. From ingredient lists to safety warnings, every brand must get it right. With constantly evolving product lines, managing packaging and label accuracy is no small feat. One mistake could damage your brand’s reputation or lead to fines.

ManageArtworks makes it easy to manage these high-stakes details. With a digital asset library that stores every artwork file in one place, brands can keep tabs on multiple product versions and retrieve any asset instantly. This organized approach helps manage every stage of packaging, from initial concept to approved, ready-to-print designs. The platform’s version control, auto-tagging, and custom metadata ensure no asset is ever lost in the shuffle.

For cosmetics companies handling a wide range of products and variants, including sample packs and minis, the copy manager feature ensures consistency across all content. It centralizes product descriptions, ingredient lists, and claims in one place, making it easier to create accurate, compliant text for every package, no matter the size or variant. Teams can seamlessly update and share approved text across all product lines, eliminating discrepancies and reducing rework.

On top of that, ManageArtworks’ AI-powered proofing tools allow teams to review artwork for errors and inconsistencies in seconds. Whether it’s ingredient accuracy, layout issues, or branding guidelines, these tools help spot and resolve problems fast—no costly printing mistakes required. The online proofing features also enable multiple stakeholders to review, approve, and sign off on designs in real-time, cutting down on bottlenecks and getting compliant, flawless packaging to the shelves faster.  

Spirits & Alcohol:

Wine labeling compliance is critical for consumer safety, brand transparency, and adherence to regulatory standards. Accurate labels must convey essential details like origin, vintage, varietal, alcohol content, and allergens. Non-compliance can lead to costly product recalls, legal repercussions, and potential damage to brand reputation. Many regions require mandatory warnings, such as health advisories or allergen information, which must be displayed clearly. An artwork management system helps alcohol brands consistently integrate these elements, ensuring that each label meets required standards and minimizes compliance risks.

For alcohol brands distributing internationally, label management is particularly complex. Different markets often require unique adaptations of packaging and labeling—spanning design specifications, font sizes, language, and regulatory statements. With ManageArtworks, brands can efficiently handle these variations. The system’s central repository for label content, along with organized workflows, enables easy creation of market-specific labels without compromising on brand cohesion. Its copy manager and AI-driven proofreading tools streamline the process, ensuring that each label is accurate, compliant, and reflects brand integrity.

Record-keeping for compliance is equally critical. ManageArtworks automatically tracks edits, approvals, and versions, creating a reliable audit trail for internal reviews and regulatory requests. This dynamic system enables brands to manage complex artwork processes efficiently, keeping quality and compliance at the forefront across global markets.

In a nutshell:

Managing packaging artwork without the right tools is like trying to juggle with your hands tied. Whether you’re racing to meet FMCG deadlines, meeting pharma’s ironclad regulations, crafting cosmetics that make the shelves shine, or complying with the regulated spirits industry, artwork management has its unique set of challenges. That’s where ManageArtworks steps in, offering support to keep things clear, compliant, and efficient. Whether it’s simplifying approvals, catching those tiny errors, or just helping teams work in sync, we’re here to make packaging a little less hectic and a lot more manageable.
