Packaging is used to enclose and protect products which are being sent off for distribution. To communicate with the distributer or receiver of the products, packaging labels should be placed on the product packaging. This should be done to ensure there is no damage to the person or to the product. These labels or tapes inform people how heavy, light and fragile the package may be. The labels can also inform the person on how the package should be handled. This can then give them a rough idea of what the item may be, to ensure no damage to themselves or product.
