Food & Beverage Compliance

Additive, labeling, and safety
compliance β€” automated

Check food additives against authorized lists, verify labeling compliance across markets, and ensure allergen disclosure meets every jurisdiction's requirements. One platform, every regulation.

The food compliance challenge

Food regulations are a maze of additive authorizations, maximum usage levels, food category classifications, and labeling requirements that vary by market. An additive approved in the US under GRAS may require a specific E-number in the EU with different maximum levels β€” or be entirely prohibited in another jurisdiction.

Cross-market additive status

The same additive can be GRAS in the US, authorized with conditions in the EU, and banned in another market. Inlet tracks every additive's status across all jurisdictions simultaneously.

Labeling compliance

Allergen disclosure thresholds, nutrition declaration formats, mandatory warnings, and ingredient listing rules differ by market. One product label rarely works across borders.

E-number tracking

EU E-numbers map to specific additive identities. Inlet cross-references E-numbers with CAS numbers and common names to ensure consistent identification across regulatory frameworks.

Maximum usage levels

Additives have different maximum permitted levels depending on the food category. A colorant allowed at 100mg/kg in confectionery might be limited to 50mg/kg in beverages.
