WEBINAR: FOOD ALLERGEN MANAGEMENT PROGRAM

Food companies continue to face the challenge of ensuring consistency in controlling allergens across the food chain. Inconsistent use of allergen risk communication, such as the clear declaration of the presence of allergens on product labels, contributes to consumer confusion on what is safe to consume. This uncertainty forces consumers to largely ignore labels, potentially exposing them to greater risk.

The hazard of hidden allergens occurring in the food chain has further generated a high demand for the implementation of sensitive methods able to trace allergens in different food commodities. There is a need for harmonisation around allergen testing performance criteria and standards in order to assure the reliability, accuracy and comparability of results.

Therefore, SGS (Thailand) Limited invites you to attend the webinar “Food Allergen Management Program” on January 26^th, 2015.
