IDDSI Level 1 Slightly Thick Labels, 500 On A Roll
A roll of 500 grey triangular 25mm 'Slightly Thick' food consistency labels on paper with a removable adhesive.
Level 1 Slightly Thick is thicker than water but still moves through a standard straw. It is the lightest thickening step and is often used as a transition, which is exactly why it needs marking: by eye it is easy to mistake for an ordinary drink. Avery states the range was developed in accordance with the International Dysphagia Diet Standardisation Initiative framework, and grey is the colour that framework assigns to Level 1, so a tray marked with one of these reads the same way in any kitchen working to IDDSI.
The adhesive is rated from -5°C to 60°C and Avery lists the range as safe for refrigeration, so it holds from the cold room through to service. The label is triangular rather than round, because IDDSI uses shape alongside colour so a level stays readable to someone with impaired colour vision.
The adhesive is removable, so the label lifts off a tray, a lid or a jug at the end of service without leaving residue on equipment that gets washed and put back into use. The full set of eleven consistency levels sits in our food safety and rotation label range, alongside the wider Avery label range and our full label supplies category.
