In today’s highly competitive global supply chain, buyers don’t just care about the price of label materials. They also pay close attention to whether a supplier holds recognized industry certifications and third-party testing reports. For OwnLikes, credentials such as FSC, ISO, and SGS are more than certificates—they are a strong guarantee of customer trust and market access.
Three Core Risks Buyers Face When Sourcing Label Materials
Risk of Environmental Non-Compliance
If materials have not passed RoHS or REACH testing, shipments can be rejected, delayed, or even destroyed at customs. This not only increases direct costs but can also damage the buyer’s trust in the supplier.
Lack of Quality and Stability Assurance
Without an ISO-certified quality system, labels may fail in use—peeling off, fading, or failing under heat. In large-scale applications, this can quickly escalate into customer complaints, product returns, or even penalty clauses.
Barriers to International Market Entry
Without internationally recognized certifications like FSC or SGS, companies may be rejected during customer audits or customs clearance. For cross-border sellers, this can even result in platform rejections, preventing products from being listed.
FSC Certification — A Commitment to Sustainability
The Value and Scope of FSC
FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) certification ensures raw materials come from legally sourced and sustainably managed forests, avoiding illegal logging and environmental damage.
Why FSC Matters to Buyers
- Meets global green supply chain requirements
- Aligns with procurement policies of major international brands
- Opens access to strict markets in Europe, North America, and Japan
OwnLikes’ FSC Credentials
On the OwnLikes official website (About Us page), the company displays its FSC certificate, proving its paper-based labels such as kraft and white coated papers have achieved this recognition. Customers may request certificate numbers or scanned copies for verification.
ISO Certification — Systematic Quality and Stability
ISO 9001 Quality Management System
Ensures standardized production processes and batch-to-batch consistency.
ISO 14001 Environmental Management System
Reduces environmental impact during production and supports green procurement requirements.
OwnLikes’ ISO Practice
On its About Us page, OwnLikes showcases ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certifications. These standards are strictly implemented across production and supply chain management. For example, in large-scale export orders, OwnLikes has maintained an on-time delivery rate above 99%, supported by ISO-driven processes. Full copies of certificates are available upon request.
SGS Testing & Certification — Independent Global Trust
Common SGS Tests for Label Materials
- Adhesion and peel strength tests
