Food Label Compliance Review

FSSAI Artwork Compliance Audit

Redline verification of mandatory font heights, declarations & claims.

STATUTORY IMPORTANCE

Why Food-Label Compliance Matters

A food label is far more than marketing artwork—it is a legally binding document under the Food Safety and Standards (Labelling and Display) Regulations, 2020 and Legal Metrology (Packaged Commodities) Rules.

Non-compliant packaging artwork, font height mismatches, or unvalidated health claims result in immediate packaging rejection, severe financial losses due to re-printing, statutory prosecution, or product recall.

OUR METHODOLOGY

Our 4-Step Label Review Approach

02

Understand Regulation

Cross-referencing product category standards against FSSAI, Codex, and Legal Metrology mandates.

03

Identify Gaps

Pinpointing font height errors, missing allergen callouts, incorrect %RDA values, or misleading claims.

Correct the Label

Delivering an annotated redline artwork report with exact replacement text, dimensions, and symbol placement.

  • Veg / Non-Veg Declaration: Green filled circle in green square or Brown triangle in brown square symbol dimensions.
FSSAI Logo & Symbol Verification

We check that the FSSAI logo and 14-digit license number are displayed on the packaging in high contrast with the background, adhering to mandated font height proportions based on the size of the Principal Display Panel.

Nutritional Panel & Claims Verification

  • Ingredient Declaration: Descending order by incoming weight & INS numbers for food additives.
  • Nutritional Information: Energy (kcal), protein, carbs, total/added sugar, fats, saturated/trans fat, sodium & %RDA per serve.
  • Claims & Representations: Validation of health claims, nutrition claims ('Low Sugar', 'High Fiber'), and comparative claims.
Nutritional Facts & %RDA Verification

FSSAI mandates calorie and nutrient values per 100g/100ml as well as per single serve size, alongside percentage contribution to recommended daily allowance (%RDA) based on a 2000 kcal daily diet.

Safety, Allergens & Expiry Marking

  • Allergen Information: Mandatory bold declarations for gluten, crustaceans, peanuts, soy, milk, tree nuts, and sulfites.
  • Date Marking: Date of manufacture/packaging, 'Best Before' date, or 'Use By/Expiry Date' format.
  • Product-Specific Declarations: Warning statements for polyols, artificial sweeteners, caffeine, or organic Jaivik Bharat logo.
Allergen & Statutory Warnings

Allergens must be printed in bold text near the ingredient list or declared under a separate 'Contains Allergen' callout to prevent severe consumer health risks and regulatory liability.
