The term main dashboard, as it refers to packaged cosmetics used in this Part, means the part of a label that is most likely to be displayed, displayed, displayed or examined under normal conditions of retail exposure. The principal display panel shall be large enough to contain all the mandatory information on the label which must be affixed by this Part with clarity and visibility and without obscuring images, vignettes or crowds. Where the package has other main dashboards, the information to be displayed on the main dashboard is duplicated on each main dashboard. In order to achieve a uniform font size in indicating the contents of all packages of substantially the same size, „main dashboard area“ means the area of the page or the area carrying the main dashboard. The main dashboard is the area that the consumer is most likely to see at the time of purchase. On the shelf, grocery stores look at the front of the PDP, so the customer can easily see what`s in the package. The information field is located to the right of the PDP. For example, the PDP is the front of a cereal box and the IP is on the right. For a box that has no sides, the PDP is the front of the label, and if you turn the box clockwise, the IP is to the right of the PDP. If the space immediately to the right of the PDP is not available, such as a folded bag, the next area to the right is acceptable.

In this case, the back of the bag.

While design and aesthetics are certainly important when it comes to selling products, food manufacturers must also follow certain FDA guidelines when it comes to food labeling.

For example, the front of the package, called the main display panel (PDP), has a unique set of FDA rules it must comply with and information it must contain. And of course the information panel. The first three points are pretty self-explanatory, but the last three can cause some concern for new food manufacturers, as the FDA has very specific requirements for nutritional size, format, and information about these items. Fortunately, food manufacturers can use online nutrition analysis software to create an FDA-compliant Nutrition Facts table, ingredient list, and allergen claims in minutes. Creating the packaging and labels for your product can be overwhelming, so if you`re still not feeling sure, it may be a good idea to meet with an experienced labeling consultant to make sure you`re doing everything right. You can take a close look at your label to see if it complies with FDA guidelines and provide sound advice on improvements you could make. The best part is that at the end of the process, you will be able to safely sell your product to grocery stores, knowing that your PDP and information board are absolutely perfect. The Main Display Field (PDP) and Information Field (IP) are two places on the food packaging to display label instructions. The FDA identifies six claims on food packaging. This includes a declaration of identity, net quantity of content, nutrition labelling, ingredient information, allergen declaration and the name and registered office of the manufacturer, packer or distributor.
