International Organization of the Flavor Industry - Code of Practice

International Organization of the Flavor Industry - Code of Practice The International Organization of the Flavor Industry (IOFI) is an association of regional and national associations of the global flavour industry, consisting of the national associations of flavour manufacturers of Australia, Brazil, Canada, Colombia, Indonesia, Japan, Mexico, Singapore, South Africa and the United States, and the regional flavour association of Europe (EFFA) which consists of Austria, Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and the United Kingdom. The Code of Practice consists of information describing best practices regarding the safety, composition, manufacture, description and labeling of flavourings. The application of the Code of Practice does not relieve individual manufacturers from the obligation to comply with all local, national, or international regulations that pertain to their operations. These regulations take precedence over this Code. In those countries where specific legislation and regulations applicable to flavourings are not in force, the Code of Practice should serve as a best practices resource.
