Every year the US sees a swathe of food recalls caused by undeclared allergens. From peanuts in ground cumin to shellfish in ravioli, if it’s not declared on the label, it can’t hit the shelves!
Reduce your risk by tackling the three common causes of recalls:
- Undeclared allergens in raw materials
- Incorrect labelling
- Contamination during production
Food safety is our shared priority. From our global network of ISO/IEC 17025 accredited food testing labs we can help you to address all the above, assuring the safety, quality and sustainability of your food products.
Gluten-free – Did you know?
A final rule from the US FDA allows manufacturers to voluntarily label fermented, hydrolysed or distilled foods as gluten-free in a move designed to boost consumer confidence in gluten-free claims.
This rule requires you to make and keep records to show that:
- The food meets the US FDA definition of gluten-free
- The manufacturer has evaluated the process for any potential gluten cross-contamination
- Measures are in place to prevent potential for cross-contamination
