Food labelling guidance

Food labelling guidance

Label review service

A key requirement for any successful food business is the ability to develop new products efficiently; to get them to the market as quickly as possible; and to ensure that when they arrive they are properly labelled.

As product development cycles get shorter, there is an increasing need for a timely, accurate, authoritative and interpretative service, to help ensure that product labels not only meet legal requirements, but also take full account of the considerable array of formal and informal guidance which covers many aspects of food labelling and presentation.

Campden BRI´s label review service can help you achieve this for the UK market in a cost effective and flexible manner. Working at any stage, from a development brief to finished artwork, we can advise on product formulation, so that names, claims and descriptions are supportable. As the process moves forward, we can review any or all of the specific aspects of a food label; comment on their acceptability; forewarn of potential difficulties; and suggest practical alternatives. In addition, we will draw attention to any related forthcoming rule changes.

The service is delivered by Campden BRI´s food law advisory team, which is widely recognised for its food labelling expertise and whose views are well-respected and frequently sought throughout the supply chain.

Reviews can also be undertaken for North American markets.
