Regulations That Apply to Food Flavourings & Ingredients
OSHA Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR 1910.1200)
Food and food additives regulated by the FDA are exempt from HazCom labelling, and food in a retail establishment is fully exempt — a food-grade chemical handled in a production plant is neither.
FDA GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe)
Governs the US status of substances added to food.
Hazardous Products Act, Schedule 1
Excludes food regulated under the Food and Drugs Act from the WHMIS supplier requirements.
EU REACH Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006
Applies to substances exported into the EU and sets the SDS obligations that follow.
Regulatory references reviewed August 2026, each linked to its primary source. This page is general information about the documentation Quantum SDS produces, not compliance advice, and requirements change — confirm the current rule that applies to your product before relying on it, or talk to our team.
