Where the regulation applies

The regulation covers milk, dairy products and associated production and distribution processes. Composition and processing determine product classification and the applicable assessment procedures.

What the regulation covers

Controls address microbiological parameters, contaminants and veterinary drug residues. Cold-chain integrity, shelf life and accurate description of dairy composition are reviewed.

Examples of products and facilities

  • drinking milk
  • cream
  • yoghurt
  • kefir
  • cheese
  • butter

These examples are indicative. Applicability depends on intended use, specifications and the regulation’s exclusions.

Documentation we help prepare

PLANCK reviews formulations, process documents, test results and label artwork and helps identify the assessment route and prepare the required documentation.

Before selecting a route, we check the current text, effective date, transitional provisions and exclusions. Listing a regulation does not mean it already applies to every product in that category.

What to prepare

  • Technical description and intended use
  • The key parameters listed above
  • Models, manufacturer and applicant details
  • Existing conformity evidence

What you receive

A requirements matrix for your product: scope, assessment route, necessary evidence and next actions.
