Novel Food status decides market access

Some botanical extracts require Novel Food authorization in the EU. Confirm the status of the target ingredient before planning a launch or listing.

Contaminant limits follow EU rules

Heavy metals, pesticides, microbiology and residual solvents should be checked against EU limits, not only the supplier default specification.

Traceability supports border checks

Batch records, lot code and supplier-route documents reduce delays during import control and support due diligence.
