Canadian Labeling Requirements


What is acceptable: 

  • it is acceptable to have a QR Code on the label that leads to nutritional information and a list of ingredients, HOWEVER, the current Scantrust e-label format is not accepted as it does not comply with Canadian Labeling requirements. 

What is not acceptable: 

  • showing the nutritional table and list of ingredients according to the European graphical and technical requirements
  • adding a nutrition statement such as 100ml = E297kj/ 71kcal on the physical label without also supplying the full nutrition table

Please ensure you are compliant before printing. 
ALL

      • save the images online (if you have already saved that information as an image on your website, a link to that image on your website works)

      • store the respective image URL under this "Tag" for each QR Code (SCM field update)
