Introducing RLG Healthcare – Compliant. Responsive. Full Service.

Healthcare packaging and labeling partner

Healthcare Packaging Programs Depend on More Than a Label.

RLG Healthcare helps pharmaceutical, medical device, biotechnology, OTC, and clinical teams manage the printed components behind regulated packaging programs, from labels and cartons to IFUs, DFUs, smart packaging, literature fulfillment, and launch support.

Healthcare packaging partner

One partner for cartons, literature, labels, smart packaging, and fulfillment support.

Healthcare packaging is not a single print order. A launch, update, or reorder may involve cartons, inserts, outserts, IFUs, labels, security features, variable data, fulfillment needs, and multiple internal review teams. RLG Healthcare helps reduce handoffs and organize those moving parts around the product.

Labels and specialty constructions

Product identification, durability and inspection control across healthcare label formats. Pressure-sensitive labels, vial and bottle labels, cryogenic labels, variable and serialized labels, ECLs, tamper-evident constructions, RFID, NFC and specialty materials.

IFUs, DFUs and literature

Compact formats for communicating critical information across markets and languages. Package inserts, outserts, directions for use, instructions for use, medication guides, patient information leaflets, medical device manuals, booklets and folded literature.

Cartons, kits and secondary packaging

Structural fit, line performance and shelf presentation built into the packaging system. Folding cartons, boxes, kits, carton labels, structural design support, smart packaging integration and packaging systems built around product and line requirements.

Digital storefront and fulfillment

Controlled access to approved materials, inventory visibility, kitting, conference support, Direct-to-HCP campaigns, reporting, ordering, and fulfillment workflows.

Smart packaging and brand protection

Traceability, authentication and connected access built into the package. UDI-ready labeling support, GS1 DataMatrix and 2D barcode considerations, RFID, NFC, QR codes, serialization support, item validation, authentication features, security technologies and connected packaging options.

Quality and production support

Project discovery, needs analysis, pre-production planning, proofing, inspection, documentation support, supply planning, launch coordination, and repeat-order support.

Why it matters

Healthcare packaging is rarely a one-component project.

A single product may require a primary label, carton, insert, IFU, medication guide, security feature, variable data, and a fulfillment process that keeps every approved component aligned.

Each update can involve quality, regulatory, brand, operations, procurement, and supply chain stakeholders. RLG Healthcare helps customers think through the full program before production begins, so the right materials, formats, workflows, and support systems are considered earlier.

Program architecture

A connected packaging program around the product.

The strongest healthcare packaging programs connect requirements, printed components, quality workflows, inventory support, and lifecycle changes instead of managing each piece in isolation.

Product Requirements

Container, device, storage, handling, labeling space, market, and use-case constraints.

Printed Components

Labels, cartons, inserts, outserts, IFUs, DFUs, guides, literature, kits, and collateral.

Quality Workflow

Proofing, inspection, verification, documentation support, and production readiness.

Inventory and Fulfillment

Digital storefront, kitting, ordering, reporting, stock visibility, and field support.

Launch and Lifecycle

Rush launches, updates, repeat orders, version control, supply planning, and program changes.

Healthcare labels

A healthcare label has to do more than look correct on press.

It needs to fit the container, remain readable, support product identification, withstand the intended environment, and coordinate with the broader packaging system.

RLG Healthcare supports label programs for bottles, vials, syringes, cartons, devices, bags, kits, cryogenic applications, variable information, smart packaging, security features, and extended content requirements.

Container fitBottles, vials, syringes, devices, cartons, bags, kits, and small-format packaging.
ReadabilityTypography, barcodes, QR codes, lot numbers, expiration dates, and small-space layouts.
EnvironmentStorage, handling, moisture, cold-chain, cryogenic, and application requirements.
InformationVariable data, serialization support, multilingual copy, instructions, warnings, and product details.
CoordinationAlignment with cartons, inserts, outserts, IFUs, DFUs, literature, and fulfillment needs.
Literature and instructions

Critical product information needs a production path as disciplined as the package itself.

Printed instructions and patient-facing materials are central to many healthcare packaging programs, especially when content is version-sensitive, space is limited, and multiple stakeholders need to review updates before production.

RLG Healthcare supports complex printed literature formats that communicate product information, safety details, usage instructions, medication guidance, multilingual content, and patient or provider education.

Booklets and binderyMiniature glued booklets, folded literature, booklets, brochures, and multi-panel formats.
Digital Storefront and fulfillment support

Make approved printed materials easier to find, order, track, and fulfill.

Healthcare marketing, sales, and product support teams need controlled access to approved assets, ordering workflows, and fulfillment support.

RLG Healthcare’s Digital Storefront helps centralize approved artwork, printed materials, inventory, ordering, reporting and fulfillment in a configurable self-service portal built for cross-functional teams, agency workflows, sales organizations, conference needs and field users.

For marketing operations teams, that means fewer one-off requests, stronger control over approved field materials and clearer visibility into how print assets are ordered, used and replenished across brands, teams and campaigns.

Smart packaging, UDI, and protection

Connect physical packaging with UDI, product information, and operational workflows.

Unique Device Identification is now a core part of the medical device packaging and labeling conversation. UDI requirements are intended to support device identification from manufacturing through distribution and patient use, while improving recall management, adverse event reporting, and supply chain visibility.

RLG Healthcare can help evaluate medical device labels, cartons, IFUs, DFUs, GS1 DataMatrix and 2D barcode considerations, QR codes, RFID, NFC, and connected packaging options based on the product, packaging format, market, risk profile, and operational goal.

Quality-focused support

Support before, during, and after production.

Healthcare packaging requires discipline across discovery, artwork, proofing, production, delivery, and repeat ordering.

RLG Healthcare supports packaging programs built to support regulated healthcare environments with site-specific quality systems, quality-focused processes, inspection technologies, documentation support and production planning.

Healthcare packaging production and quality management

Project Discovery

Identify the product, package format, printed components, timeline, stakeholders, quality needs, and downstream requirements earlier.

Artwork, Proofing, and Documentation Support

Help organize files, revisions, proofs, specifications, barcodes, variable information, and production details for review.

Production Readiness

Support consistent print execution through planning, production checks, inspection workflows, and quality-focused manufacturing where applicable.

Supply, Reorder, and Launch Coordination

Help coordinate production, inventory, fulfillment, partial shipments, repeat orders, and timing-sensitive healthcare launches.

National network

A national network that helps protect your supply chain.

Healthcare packaging programs need reach, redundancy, and responsive support when launches, updates, and repeat orders cannot wait.

RLG Healthcare brings together healthcare-focused production resources across the country, helping customers plan around supply continuity, duplicate capabilities, quick turnarounds, and the hands-on support of a dedicated packaging partner.
