allergen labeling compliance

Allergen labeling compliance means that food products clearly list ingredients that may cause allergic reactions, such as nuts, dairy, or gluten. This helps consumers with food allergies identify potential hazards and make safe choices. Regulations require that allergens are emphasized in ingredient lists—often by bolding or highlighting—and must be accurate and up-to-date. Proper labeling reduces the risk of allergic reactions, ensures transparency, and meets legal standards set by food safety authorities. Companies must follow these rules to protect consumers and avoid legal penalties for non-compliance.
