Allergen labelling

Plain English Allergen Labelling (PEAL)

Prepare PEAL-compliant labels with Foodworks.online Nutrition Labelling, and ensure your allergen information is available to consumers to find quickly and easily.

Foodworks ensures your allergen information is declared compliantly by:

using simple, plain English terminology
meeting the standardised formatting requirements

The new allergens are included: almond, brazil nut, cashew, hazelnut, macadamia, pecan, pine nut, pistachio, walnut and mollusc.

The PEAL requirements are contained in the Australia New Zealand Food Standards Code. Food products labelled after February 2024 need to comply with the new PEAL requirements.

Country of Origin Labelling

If you sell food in retail stores in Australia, Country of Origin Labelling (CoOL) laws may apply to your products and have been mandatory since 1 July 2018.

Foodworks.online helps you comply with the legislation, calculating the percentage of Australian content for your sub-recipes and final recipes, and helping you to formulate your text statements.

Foodworks includes the CoOL Editor to make it easy and quick to enter CoOL values for all your raw materials.

Testimonials

Some satisfied reviews of Foodworks 10 by people and professionals

A smooth, efficient transition to Foodworks.online

The assistance offered by the team at Xyris resulted in a seamless transition from FoodWorks 10 to Foodworks online. We now have unrestricted access to label information, which has been invaluable at the point of sale. The migration process was smooth and efficient, with turnaround time under two weeks. All our data was still accessible during the transition via Foodworks 10 and the scope of work included ensuring that all information was correctly transferred...We also opted for the “best practice checks” which proved excellent value for money. The Xyris team provided a report with detailed recommendations for improvement, in line with the requirements of the Food Standards Code. We highly recommend both these services.

FoodWorks makes the documentation process a lot faster

I’ve been using FoodWorks for about 5 years. As an ingredients supplier, we use FoodWorks to generate the nutrition information, allergen information and ingredients lists for our blended products, which we then include in the product specifications for our customers. With the relevant local labelling requirements built into it, FoodWorks makes the documentation process a lot faster. It is user-friendly even for a new team member.
