CFS Label Checks- what information do I need to prepare?

21/4/2016

 
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
  • serve size
  • nutrient information (on weight basis)
  • pack weight
  • nutrition / nutrient or health claims
  • allergen information
  • artwork or packaging examples
  • country of origin
  • storage directions
  • Australian  manufacturing / distribution address
  • Product name and product descriptors
  • Ingredient list by in going weight and country of origin of all ingredients
  • Copy of draft art work or clear photo of the package.
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 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.

Verification of automated monitoring records

1/4/2016

 
The NSW Food Authority "Foodwise" circular 39, February 2016 has stated that " The use of automated monitoring systems does not remove the requirement to complete verification monitoring. Businesses must ensure that these systems are continually checked and monitoring is conducted on each batch to verify that the automated systems are working correctly".
 
​Businesses are thus advised to ensure all monitoring records , whether automated, electronic or manually completed are verified manually, with records available to demonstrate food safety hazards were monitored and verified as under control, as per the business's Food Safety Program.
