Artificial ingredients

Intent:

To help occupants avoid artificial colors, sweeteners and preservatives in food.

Post Date: 01 May, 2019 Status: Approved Projects may achieve Feature 43, Part 1 by using a food labeling system that clearly identifies whether or not products contain artificial ingredients. The labeling system must include, at minimum, the artificial ingredients listed in Feature 43 Part 1. Signage explaining how the labeling system operates is prominently displayed at point-of-decision and the complete list of artificial ingredients found in foods provided on-site is available upon request. Signage is subject to a spot check during performance review.
Post Date: 06 May, 2016 Status: Approved For projects located in India, the requirements for Feature 43 may be met by providing labeling for all high-shelf life packaged foods in addition to freshly prepared food items offered on-site. Foods must be labeled with the additives outlined by the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI). Up to 30% of the low-shelf life packages goods prepared off site may be exempted from artificial substance labeling, but must include clear signage that they have not been evaluated for artificial ingredients or food additives. The latest version of the FSSAI regulation must be made available to building users upon request.
