Christmas is know to be the busiest time of the year for traders, with everyone ordering presents and festive accessories for their homes. It can be a chance to inspire real loyalty in your customers, by providing a reliable service during a time of year when everyone is a little more stressed and eager for things to arrive. On the other side of the coin, it can also be an extremely risky time for retailers, who have to deal with a heightened volume of orders, making the process more time-consuming and problematic to deal with. 

To ensure that your shipping process is as efficient and error-free as it should be this Christmas, it's important that you stock up on the right set of packaging labels, in order to maximize your chances of delivering the best possible service to your customers. Here at Label Source, we have a variety of packaging materials to aid the process, allowing you to advise the correct delivery instructions for the products in a clear and concise way.

At Label Source we stock:

• Instructional Shipping Labels - Our Shipping Transit Labels give clear instructions on how to handle goods, in relation to the movement and storage of the items contained. We also provide Heavy Duty labels to withstand troublesome conditions.

• Visual Handling Instructions - Our Packaging Handling Labels give purely visual instructions, for easy comprehension. Alternatively, we also stock Self-Adhesive Packaging Labels without visual symbols, with short and concise phrasing.

• Dispatch labels - These labels give clear and easy-to-read instructions regarding the contents of a load, as well as its position in the ship cycle.

• Packing Tape - We stock a range of high quality packing tape with a selection of instructional messages to choose from. 

• Packing and Shipping Stencils - These stencils display many of the same messages as the labels, but are reusable and work particularly well for large items such as wooden crates.

As you will have already noticed, we've been placing an increased focus on the subject of UK road safety over the past few days, in order to help spread the message about Road Safety Week. In Northampton, a primary school has also been getting involved in this week's activities, by breaking the world record for the number of high visibility vests worn in one place. More than 1,500 people, including the pupils at the school, crammed onto the school yard in order to smash the previous record of 1,475 people, setting the bar for the next group of people looking to take on the challenge.

While the main aim of the day was to aid the promotion of Road Safety Week, it was also an opportunity for staff, pupils and local residents to pay tribute to one of their former pupils. 13 year old Sophie Bywaters was tragically killed whilst crossing the road upon returning from a youth club back  in 2009, an accident made even more heartbreaking by it's preventable nature. Members of the local police as well as the fire and rescue service were also in attendance at the event, not only to aid in the record attempt, but also to give various presentations on road safety. A number of informative activities took place later that day, including a road safety signage competition for students, with the winning designs being chosen for use on international infrastructure group Balfour Beatty's sites. There were also live demonstrations with safety vehicles and fire safety appliances, in order to aid the illustration of vehicle blind spots and proper safety procedure.

It's extremely inspirational to see how this school has managed to encourage interest in the topic of health and safety, by presenting the information in a fun and engaging fashion. It is vitally important that we inform the most vulnerable members in our society about these issues, and ensure that they are fully aware of the safety procedures that should be followed at school, at home and on the roads. This comes from providing good quality and easy-to-read information, in the form of engaging activities such as this one, and of course in the form of good quality safety signs.

Today we are continuing with the road safety theme (it is Road Safety Week, after all!) and asking you how well you know your road signs.

Be honest now, after passing your driving test, how many of you can remember what all the road signs actually mean? Well, according to a survey commissioned by Zuto, a car finance expert, a staggering 90 per cent of drivers in the UK admitted that they find road signs confusing. Some of the results of this survey are truly shocking:  

• One third of the participants did not recognise the national speed limit
• Half of the participants believe that there are too many signs on the road
• One in 20 admitted that they have made mistakes driving due to confusing road signs
• Over 4 million drivers didn’t understand the “level crossing without a barrier” sign
• One in four drivers didn’t understand the “car and motorcycles prohibited” sign, with 13 per cent believing that it meant the exact opposite.
