Ingredient Compliance
EU supplement ingredient compliance means using permitted ingredients within their maximum levels, clearing novel food status where it applies, and having the documentation and labelling inputs to support the product. Indock sources ingredients with these checks in mind, so you do not build a formula around a material that cannot legally be sold.
What compliance covers
- Permitted ingredients: forms allowed for use in EU food supplements
- Maximum levels: keeping actives within safe and permitted amounts
- Novel food status: flagging ingredients that need authorisation before use
- Labelling inputs: the ingredient data your label and declarations rely on
How responsibility works
The brand placing a supplement on the market holds final legal responsibility for it. Our role is to source compliant ingredients and hand you the documentation and labelling inputs that support your compliance, so the path to market is clear rather than guesswork.
How it connects to documentation
Compliance rests on documentation. The certificate of analysis and specifications from quality and documentation feed the permitted use and level checks here. This applies equally to branded and unbranded ingredients. When your ingredients are compliant, we can also manufacture the finished supplement to EU standards.
Frequently asked questions
An EU compliant ingredient is a permitted form used within its maximum level, with novel food status cleared where relevant, and the documentation to support its use. We source ingredients with these checks in mind.
A novel food is an ingredient without a significant history of consumption in the EU before 1997, which needs authorisation before use. We flag novel food status so you do not build a formula around an ingredient that cannot be sold.
