Requirements for Organic Food Labels

It’s now becoming a common occurrence that consumers check for organic food labels on the products they buy. These labels confirm that the products have not been processed with artificial ingredients or preservatives. Specific requirements need to be met before food labels may be applied to organic food products. If you’re an organic food producer, it’s a good idea to review these regulations carefully.

Printing labels for organic food products is a detailed process that varies depending on the certification you’re pursuing. As a provider of food and beverage label manufacturing services, United Label understands the nuances of these requirements and helps brands stay compliant.

USDA Organic

To qualify for the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s seal, products must avoid several production methods. These include ionizing radiation exposure, genetic engineering, and sewage sludge. In addition, a list of prohibited substances must be strictly followed. Companies must be certified by USDA agents to prove their products conform to approved ingredients and processes.

Non-GMO

The criteria to determine whether a food product is genetically altered is still not completely clear. However, labeling continues to be an important indicator for consumers who prioritize non-GMO foods.

“Natural”

The word “Natural” is under increasing scrutiny and will require very specific definitions when being printed on food labels.

United Label Corporation: Your Organic Food and Beverage Label Manufacturer

If your company produces foods that qualify as organic, it may be time for a label redesign that highlights your new certification. United Label Corporation offers food and beverage label manufacturing services tailored to the organic market. Call us today at 973-589-6500 for a FREE label printing estimate.
