The clean label

What is the clean label?

The clean label trend responds to a growing consumer demand for more genuine and authentic products. This is reflected in the rise of 'free' products. Labels must be short and free of all superfluous and controversial ingredients such as additives, artificial colourings, flavourings and preservatives, pesticides, palm oil, antibiotics and GMOs... Only the ingredients that are essential to the manufacture of a product are kept! The clean label therefore consists of purifying the list of ingredients but does not necessarily imply the notion of naturalness.

 

What are the levers for clean label re/formulation?

  • Use multifunctional products to reduce the number of ingredients
  • Use of processing aids that are not labelled
  • Replace additives with ingredients with the same properties
  • Remove all controversial raw materials such as hydrogenated fats, nanoparticles etc.

 

Our ingredients that respond to it:
