Please be aware that the allergen information provided in this table should be used for guidance only. It is, to the best of all intents and purposes correct, however errors do occur. 

EU law only states that an allergen is to be declared if it is present. Therefore, not all suppliers will state “may contain”. Furthermore, all suppliers have different methods of risk assessing any potential allergen cross-contamination. The alibi statement column refers to additional information that has been submitted by the manufacturer. We therefore duly recommend that users refer directly with the manufacturer’s full specification if the information is required to complete legal food labels (available either, using a log-in online or on request) or the actual product label for guidance on allergens as this will provide the latest information.

There is no specific legal requirement to label food with ‘may contain’. However, food must be safe to eat and information to help people with allergies make safe choices, and manage their condition effectively. As such you may feel this is a prudent addition to your labelling.
