FAQ
Digital labels provide electronic access to product information through a QR code or similar digital solution. They complement the physical label and support the requirements introduced under EU Regulation 2024/2865 for plant protection products.
Registration holders, manufacturers and companies placing plant protection products on the EU market should begin preparing their product portfolios well before January 2028. Starting early reduces project risk, provides greater flexibility for review and quality assurance, and helps avoid implementation bottlenecks closer to the deadline.
No. AgriGuide is one available platform for managing digital labels, however, the legislation does not require a specific platform. Agrolab helps prepare and structure your label data so it can be implemented in your preferred digital label solution.
Agrolab converts existing labels into structured digital data, performs quality assurance, reviews consistency across products and countries, and prepares your portfolio for implementation. Our experts manage the conversion work so your regulatory team can remain focused on registrations and strategic activities.
Most projects can begin using your existing PDF or Word label files. We assess your current material, extract the required information, and prepare it for digital label implementation.
Every label is reviewed by experienced industry specialists to ensure accuracy, consistency and completeness. We also identify formatting issues, inconsistencies and opportunities for improvement before the data is delivered.
