Allergen Management – Industry Practices, Label Control & Prevention

Food allergies are on the rise. As a result, concerned consumers, retailers and government inspectors are more conscious of increasing allergen risks in food production as well as effective allergen communication. The SGS/METTLER TOLEDO webinar will present the results of the SGS industry survey on challenges, needs and gaps in allergen management.
We will explain how the right weighing solutions and services can help you reduce allergen and labeling risk. We will also discuss how to optimize communication on allergen risks to consumers.
