Background
In an era of rapid nutritional innovation, navigating the global regulatory landscape for new food ingredients has become increasingly complex. As functional foods and supplements transcend borders, manufacturers and brand owners face a fragmented mosaic of compliance requirements.
From the China New Food Raw Material system to the EU Novel Food framework and the U.S. GRAS/NDIN pathways, companies entering international markets must navigate increasingly different approval procedures, safety assessment standards, and compliance timelines. For food brands, ingredient suppliers, and regulatory teams, understanding these differences is becoming essential to reducing market-entry risks and building efficient global commercialization strategies.
We invite Yuanzhao Yu, a food regulation specialist from REACH24H Consulting Group, to break down the complexities of ingredient supervision in China, the EU, and the U.S. This session moves beyond basic rules to explore critical differences in toxicology requirements, review timelines, and data confidentiality mechanisms. The webinar aims to help food industry stakeholders better understand regional compliance expectations, identify potential regulatory barriers early, and develop more effective strategies for global ingredient registration and product expansion.
