Evolving Ingredient Safety: Navigating FDA's Proactive Shift to Food Additives and Chemicals
About This Webinar
As the FDA continues to update its approach to food additives and food-related chemicals, food and beverage companies must safeguard their ingredient compliance in light of increasingly stringent regulations.
The FDA is transitioning from a reactive to a proactive approach in evaluating food chemicals. With the reevaluation of legacy substances like BHT, BHA, and ADA—and potential overhauls to the GRAS system—CPG and food & beverage (F&B) companies are facing new layers of complexity.
Join R&D and regulatory professionals and learn how to manage ingredient sourcing and formulation compliance with the FDA’s updated regulatory framework.
Agenda
- Implications from FDA’s proactive stance on chemical safety and ingredient reevaluations
- Strategies for R&D in light of potential ingredient bans
