Dossier services
New ingredients, pet foods, heath claims or specific products (food supplements/natural mineral water) can require approval or registration by regulatory authorities before market launch. Let Leatherhead Food Research be your trusted partner and guide you through the registration process. Our dossier services cover Novel Foods (EU), GRAS (USA), PARNUT (pet foods in the EU), food supplements and natural mineral water.
The rapid evolution of consumer demand and technological capability are driving innovation at a pace that is stretching the limits of regulation. Across markets worldwide, an increasing number of products are requiring formal approval as ‘novel’ products, processes or technologies. Leatherhead’s dossier services provide an end-to-end solution, guiding clients throughout the process. Our services encompass qualification, preparation and submission of dossiers for human and pet foods. We also work closely with the regulatory authorities post submission, handling questions on our clients’ behalf.
