𝗙𝗦𝗔𝗡𝗭 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟱 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗮 𝗦𝗵𝗼𝘄𝘀 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗣𝗘𝗔𝗟 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗖𝗮𝗻’𝘁 𝗕𝗲 𝗜𝗴𝗻𝗼𝗿𝗲𝗱

FSANZ coordinated 92 food recalls in 2025, above the 10-year average of 87, with undeclared allergens remaining the biggest cause at 38%.

Milk, wheat and gluten, and tree nuts topped the allergen list, while packaging and labelling errors were identified as one of the leading root causes.

The timing is critical. The Plain English Allergen Labelling (PEAL) stock-in-trade period ended on 26 February 2026, meaning every product now on shelf must be fully PEAL-compliant.

Three months in, the data shows the industry is still adjusting.

In many cases, recalls are not caused by major failures:

✅ A formatting detail was missed

✅ A generic allergen term is still used

✅ An outdated master artwork file

✅ Labels not re-checked against updated PEAL rules

For food manufacturers, packaging design review is no longer optional.

We are offering label audits through our Creative Studio.

Exporting to the EU and US opens big opportunities—but packaging compliance must be part of the plan from day one.

Different regulations, strict documentation, and material approvals mean your packaging needs to do more than protect your product. It must meet detailed food contact and traceability requirements across multiple markets.

Here’s what food processors need to focus on:

✅ Meet both EU and US food contact regulations
✅ Ensure full traceability and documentation
✅ Validate all packaging components—not just the main material
✅ Align packaging with actual use (temperature, product type, storage)
✅ Avoid delays by planning compliance early

𝗦𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗥𝗲𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗔𝗻𝘁𝗶-𝗦𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗕𝗮𝗴𝘀 𝗔𝗿𝗲 𝗮 𝗚𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗿

Static might seem like a small issue, but in ingredient processing it can quietly disrupt your entire operation.

From powders clinging to bags to dust buildup and inconsistent machine performance, static can impact efficiency, cleanliness, and product handling more than you expect.

Anti-static bags are designed to reduce electrostatic build-up, helping your packaging perform more reliably in high-volume environments.

Here are the key benefits for ingredient processors:

✅ Cleaner product release and less waste
✅ Reduced dust attraction and improved hygiene
✅ Smoother bag handling on automated lines
✅ Better filling efficiency and consistency
✅ Improved presentation and downstream usability
