Food Databanks - Nutritional Information

We are scientists at the Quadram Institute, producing and managing the UK Compositon of Food Dataset, used for food labelling and diet and health research.

We provide a service to calculate the nutritional content of food products for the UK food industry (especially Small Medium Enterprises), Trading Standards Organisations and others in order to satisfy the requirements of new EU regulations.

The calculation of nutrient content is cost effective compared to direct analysis but can be difficult for food companies that have little or no knowledge of nutrition and food composition.

We have also teamed with Nutritics in the provision of a self calculation software method https://www. nutritics.com/welcome /nis

We have developed and tested our systems to help food producers to provide nutritional information calculated from their recipes – a cost effective and quicker alternative to laboratory analysis.

Our experts have a proven reputation and expertise in the production of the UK Composition of Foods (McCance and Widdowson) datasets and nutrition knowledge qualifying them to be your experts.

We would be very happy to work with UK food producers in order to meet the updated labeling requirements. If you would like us to help you please contact us today.
