At Silliker Canada Co. we believe that our clients deserve more than a "numbers service" in support of their nutrition labelling initiatives.
With this in mind, we have thoroughly familiarized ourselves with the maze of rules and regulations that could stand between a client's product and the marketplace in Canada and the United States. With the new mandatory Canadian labelling regulations, nutrition labelling is one of the biggest challenges facing the food industry today. (Canada Gazette Part II, volume 137). With a complete list of accredited tests for nutritional analysis and services available to format nutrition information for labelling, Silliker Canada can provide the support you need (with both Canadian and US label formats). Our vast experience in all aspects of food technology has enhanced our ability to develop appropriate labelling programs in which positive product attributes are balanced with the constraints imposed by regulatory issues. Recognizing the complexity of the nutrient content claims outlined in the new regulations, we continue to liaise with regulatory agencies on behalf of our clients to ensure that their labels meet inspection.
Conducting nutritional testing for over 50 years, we have lead the way in the implementation of appropriate test methods from the beginning, meeting the complex definitions of nutrients for labelling. Our experienced team of scientists can help you meet all your labelling needs including information on sampling, testing, label formatting, nutrient content claims, and health claims. Silliker Canada also maintains an AOCS Approved Chemist status qualified by education and experience on Cholesterol, Gas Chromatography, trans Fatty Acid by GC, Aflatoxin Peanut Paste, and Nutritional labelling.
