Labelify now offers downloadable front-of-package (FOP) symbols for our users. These symbols, which will become mandatory on certain prepackaged foods in Canada starting January 1, 2026<\/strong>, aim to help consumers make more informed dietary choices at a glance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are front-of-package nutrition symbols?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

Front-of-package symbols are standardized icons displayed on the front of food packaging to indicate the presence of high levels of nutrients that are of public health concern, such as sodium, sugars, and saturated fat. These symbols are intended to be simple and easy to understand, allowing consumers to quickly assess whether a product contains higher-than-recommended levels of these nutrients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can find more information on the Government of Canada’s website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Which products are affected?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Not all products will require front-of-package symbols. In general, affected products are prepackaged foods that exceed 15% of the daily recommended value for sodium<\/strong>, sugars<\/strong>, or saturated fat<\/strong> content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For instance, items like sugary cereals, salty snacks, and high-fat processed foods are likely to display these symbols. However, certain categories, such as raw single-ingredient foods (like fresh fruits and vegetables), milk, and certain prepared meals, are exempt from this requirement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Labelify can help<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

By managing your recipes and labels with Labelify, it’s easy to select the right FOP symbol. Since the system already knows your product’s nutritional values, it will select the symbol with the relevant nutrients for you. Simply choose the format\/version based on your principal display surface (PDS), set your serving size, and download your symbol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We offer multiple file formats for your convenience, such as PDF, PNG, JPEG, BMP, and EPS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
