Swiss marketability.Checked automatically.

Product compliance checks assigns products to the correct Swiss food category and checks food supplements, sports foods and dietary foods for compliance with the VNem and VLBE ordinances. Including limit values, ingredients, novel food notes, and labelling and presentation in the online shop.

Important: The final assessment always rests with the competent authorities. Product compliance checks provides a documented check that follows the authorities' approach as closely as possible, but does not replace a formal case-by-case decision by the authorities.
Why

Time-consuming checks,
automated and documented.

Checking marketability and labelling requires up-to-date knowledge of legislative changes, correct classification, legal names, claims and declarations. In practice, this takes a lot of effort.

Product compliance checks turns this into an automated process. New ordinances are incorporated and affected products are automatically rechecked.

Monitoring
24/7

ongoing

Changes to legislation and products are detected continuously.

clear ratings

Unambiguous classification with a recommended action.

What it handles

Four areas checked
in a single run.

Category and legal name

Automatic classification according to Swiss logic, with reasons. This determines the requirements for the rest of the check.

Safety assessment by BfR and EFSA

Checks whether assessments exist that make ingredients or the product critical, including for specific population groups.

Ingredients and limit values

All ingredients are recorded with their quantities and compared against VNem and VLBE, including maximum levels and conditions.

Labelling and shop presentation

Missing mandatory information and warnings are identified, and problematic claims in the shop are flagged.

How the system works

From product data
to check report.

1

Classification

Product data and, if needed, the packaging are analysed and assigned to the correct Swiss category.

2

Data extraction

Ingredients, quantities and functions are structured and checked for plausibility, and novel food notes are flagged.

3

Regulations

VNem, VLBE and relevant BfR/EFSA content are applied. New ordinances trigger automatic rechecks.

Report

Result with reasons for each ingredient, notes on labelling and citations from the ordinance texts.

Result

Clear, traceable,
documented.

Every check ends with an unambiguous rating. This means you can always trace internally why a product was rated the way it was.

Level 1

Marketable

The product meets the requirements checked.

Level 2

Permitted, labelling incorrect

For example, missing warnings or mandatory information.

Level 3

Not marketable

The product may not be sold in this form.

Level 4

Further review recommended

For unclear cases, missing data or room for interpretation.

Classification

Ongoing checks
instead of one-off orders.

Comparable checks are often billed per product, label or order. For simple declaration checks, rates start at around CHF 150 per order, with special cases charged by effort.

For 50 products, that already comes to around CHF 7,500 or more. With us you pay per product checked, staged by volume and well below that. A recheck after a change in regulation costs half the product price, and we tell you unprompted which products are affected.

Prices and scope vary by testing body and question. The comparison shows the order of magnitude, not a fixed market price.

Rechecks

One-off from approx. CHF 7,500, and every legislative change requires new orders. With us you pay per product checked, and half of that for a recheck.

How it works

You pay for
checked products.

No subscription tied to the size of your range. Set up once, then billed per checked product. The more products in one run, the cheaper the individual one becomes.

Step 1

Range audit

We read out your range and deliver a report: how many products, which categories are affected and where mandatory details or warnings are missing. One to two days, credited against the work.

Step 2

Set-up and check run

Set-up once per shop, then per checked product, staged by volume. Every check comes with a rating, citations and a report. Support optional.

What counts as a product. A product is one record including all variants, counted once per run. Unchanged products are not charged again.
FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

The key answers at a glance.

Which products does Product compliance checks review?
Food supplements, sports and dietary nutrition under Swiss food law, in particular under VNem and VLBE.
Does the review replace an assessment by the authorities?
No. The final assessment rests with the competent authorities. The review is as close to their practice as possible, documented and reasoned.
What happens when new regulations arrive?
We track the legal situation and tell you which of your products are affected. That monitoring and the notification are included in the monthly support. Rechecking the affected products costs half the product price.
What does Product compliance checks cost?
We start with a range audit that is credited against the work. After that we bill the set-up once per shop and the check per product, staged by volume. For ongoing operation either with monthly support or with no monthly fee at all, on demand.
Do we also pay for products that do not change?
No. Only what is actually checked is charged. An unchanged product costs nothing again until a change in regulation makes a recheck necessary.
What counts as one product?
An item with its own formulation and labelling, counted once per run. Flavour variants sharing the same declaration basis count as one product.
Do we need a subscription?
No. In the on demand option there is no monthly fee, but also no ongoing monitoring of the legal situation. You get in touch when something needs checking and pay by the same scale, with a minimum per job.
