Information required to prepare and check a label.

​Correct Food Systems is one of Australia's leading food labelling consultancy businesses. 
We assist many clients- both start up businesses and existing clients with comprehensive label checks for products. 

Clients are advised to send us the following information for each product they want us to complete a label check on:

• Nutrition Information
  ( This can be done by using the Nutrition Panel Calculator on the FSANZ website)
• serve size
• nutrient information (on weight basis)
• pack weight
• nutrition / nutrient or health claims
• allergen information
• country of origin of all ingredients
• storage directions for intended use
• Australian manufacturing / distribution address
• Product name and product descriptors
• Ingredient list by in going weight 
• Copy of draft art work or clear photo of the package.
• Any claims for nutrition or health benefits

Correct Food Systems can then complete a comprehensive check of the product label and packaging, against the detailed and often complex Australian Food Standards Code, ACCC and Consumer Law, State and Territory legislation and Trades Weights and Measures regulations.
We charge an hourly rate (or pro rata time) for our professional review and issue a comprehensive report on your product label. The time varies according to the information supplied, complexity of the product, compound ingredients, and claims made about your product. Nutrition and health claims, multipack products, novel foods, special purpose foods and foods with more than one component take longer to review and report on.
Contact us to arrange a professional label compliance review.
