First of all, the Regulation n°1169/2011 called INCO, published on November 22, 2011, concerns consumer information on foodstuffs. This must not mislead the consumer. Thus, the INCO Regulation updates, simplifies and clarifies the labeling of foodstuffs marketed in the European Union.
Therefore, the INCO Regulation n°1169/2011 stipulates that all ingredients that are in the form of manufactured nanomaterials must be clearly indicated in the list of ingredients, following the name of the ingredient by the term [nano].
In order to comply with the INCO regulation n°1169/2011, food manufacturers must perform laboratory analysis of nanomaterials that may be present in the products concerned. Thus, their quantification, the determination of their nature and their origin are key steps in the process of compliance with the INCO Regulation No. 1169/2011.
