Reformulation is a great way for the food industry to help improve consumers' diets. The process of reformulating is different for every business, but always involves changing an existing product or recipe to improve its nutritional content.

The Reformulation for Health programme is for small- to medium-sized food companies. You don't have to be an FDF member to take part.

FDF Scotland can help businesses to:

  • review current nutritional specification, and compare it with market trends to make sure reformulating improves your product’s longevity
  • map any upcoming industry guidelines and legislations which may affect your product
  • use a holistic approach to reformulation, and will present all the nutritional improvements for your product you can achieve by reformulating
  • encompass what is important to your brand and make sure that reformulation works for you

This means that FDF can help you make your recipes healthier while taking into consideration your brand, customers, budget and business priorities.
