據英國食品標準局(FSA)消息, 8月1日英國食品標準局發布中小企業食物過敏原標簽指南,以幫助中小企業應對2014年12月13日即將生效的歐盟預包裝和非預包裝(散裝)食品標簽新法規。
新法規要求食品企業標示14種過敏原信息,含有麩質的谷物、甲殼綱動物、軟體動物、蛋、魚、花生、堅果、大豆、奶、芹菜、芥末、芝麻、羽扇豆、二氧化硫(含量在 10mg/kg 或10mg/L 以上)。
該指南文件詮釋了歐盟對于過敏原的要求以及操作實踐,有助食品企業(尤其是中小企業)更好的理解這些要求。
部分原文報道如下:
The FSA is issuing technical guidance to help small and medium-sized (SME) businesses comply with new rules on allergen labelling and information, which take effect later this year. The guidance is being published following a public consultation.
From 13 December 2014, food businesses in the UK will have to follow new rules in labelling pre-packed foods and non-prepacked (loose) foods. This is part of the European Union Food Information for Consumers Regulation (EU FIC) coming into force.
