The new legislation, which came into effect on 1st October 2021, applies to all Pre Packed for Direct Sale (PPDS) food products and brings labelling under particular scrutiny.
Jon Shayler, chief operating officer at Erudus said: “Natasha’s Law is a game changer for the food industry, and it means more businesses than ever need access to accurate allergen data for food products.
“At Erudus we have this data, and it's our mission to get it in front of everyone who needs it, so integration partnerships such as these are crucial. Because not only do they help spread the reach of the data, they help customers use it in the most efficient and effective ways.”
This new group of Erudus API integrations boasts depth in labelling expertise, as well as covering both the commercial and public sector (specifically education campuses).
The new additions to the roster include:
- Civica - An IT based services partner in digital solutions, software applications, and managed services.
- Cypad - A tech company that offers end to end cloud-based kitchen, cleaning and facilities management solutions.
- Gen-Label - A one-stop-solution for food labelling requirements.
- NCCO International - Products include ePOS system essentials, disposable food safety products, and intelligent labelling solutions.
A Cypad representative commented: “With Natasha’s Law coming into effect we are seeing an increased demand from our caterers for suppliers to provide accurate allergy and nutrition information for the stock items they provide.
“By integrating with Erudus, Cypad suppliers only need to update their stock information in one place - saving both themselves and the caterer time and effort, and ensuring nutrition and allergen information is up to date.”
