Food Product Compliance

Compliance built into your formulation from day one — not retrofitted after launch.

Product formulation evaluation is a careful, detailed review of the composition to ensure the product meets the essential requirements specified in directives, regulations, standards, policies and guidelines.

Composition evaluation follows a step-by-step approach that starts with a detailed understanding of the product, then ensures compliance of each ingredient and its specified limits.

Food Product Compliance

Correct product categorisation decides every other requirement

Checklist

Choosing the right regulatory pathway

Every product is mapped to the category that defines its standards and approvals:

  • Standardised foods — FSS (Food Products Standards & Food Additives) Regulations, 2011
  • Proprietary foods — not standardised, but made from permitted ingredients and additives
  • Health supplements & nutraceuticals — FSS (Nutra) Regulations, 2022
  • Novel / non-specified foods & ingredients — prior approval under FSS (NSF & FI) Regulations, 2017
