New Pet Food Standards: A Paradigm Shift for Safety and Transparency

In a groundbreaking move, new standards are set to transform the pet food industry, ensuring unparalleled quality and safety for our beloved companions. These comprehensive standards encompass feed ingredient classification, labeling requirements for manufactured pet food, and adherence to Good Animal Feeding Practice (GAFP) and Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) at all levels of the supply chain.

Mandatory Labeling for Transparency and Informed Choices

Mandatory labeling requirements will empower pet owners with detailed information about the products they feed their furry friends. These labels will include a breakdown of ingredients, nutritional content, and any potential allergens or additives. This transparency will allow pet owners to make informed decisions about the food they choose, promoting healthier and happier pets.

Regulation 767/2009: The Cornerstone of Pet Food Safety

Regulation 767/2009 serves as the cornerstone of these new standards, establishing stringent requirements for the marketing, labeling, and composition of animal feeding. This regulation ensures that pet food products meet specific nutritional and safety criteria, guaranteeing the well-being of our cherished animals.
