Labelling Claims & Regulatory Framework Course

To screen claims inside a live factory project, Intermediate Food Product Development (NPD) builds the label from the formula and holds “source of protein” until analysed values and the amino acid evidence exist.

When a claim comes from a reformulation, Advanced Food Product Development (NPD) tests “reduced sugar” and “reduced sodium” against R.146 regulation 53 and R.1283 regulation 14(6), shows where regulation 53(2) leaves a claim open, and sets the same drink against the EU’s 30 percent rule.

Food labels play a critical role in providing consumers with accurate information while supporting regulatory compliance, informed purchasing decisions and confidence in food products. Incorrect, misleading or unsubstantiated claims can expose food businesses to regulatory action, product recalls, reputational damage and loss of consumer trust.

This 1-day online self-paced course provides a comprehensive introduction to food labelling claims and the regulatory frameworks that govern them. Delegates will explore the different types of claims that may appear on food labels, including nutrition, health, ingredient, quality and other marketing-related claims.

The course focuses on understanding how regulatory requirements influence the development, review and approval of food labels and claims. Delegates will learn how to assess whether claims are accurate, substantiated, compliant and not misleading to consumers.
