Tree Nut Free Allergy Labels
A pre-printed brown sticker that reads “Tree Nut Free”. Avery's own words for what it does are that it provides an immediate visual for identifying allergens that are not present in the labelled food item, and that it suits situations where the allergy requirements of many people have to be monitored at once.
Read the words, not the colour. Avery gives each label in this range a colour, but the colours are not unique to an allergen - Tree Nut Free and Peanut Free are both brown. Avery's only published claim about the colours is that they are bright and bold for quick identification. Treat the printed words as what identifies the label.
What this label does not do. It is printed paper. It does not test food, it does not verify what is in a dish, and it does not make a kitchen compliant with anything. Avery publishes no allergen testing or verification claim for it, no HACCP claim and no certification by any body, and neither do we. What goes on the label is decided by whoever applies it, and the accuracy of that decision is the kitchen's, not the label's.
Is it safe against the food itself? Avery's answer, on their Food Safety Labels FAQ rather than on the product page, is no: their food safety labels are not intended for direct food contact and are designed to be applied to the outside of containers, packaging or storage surfaces, which keeps the label adhesive and ink away from the food itself.
Avery publishes a temperature range of -5°C to 60°C and calls the range safe for refrigeration. That covers a fridge and a commercial cool room. It is not a freezer rating, because -5 does not reach freezer temperature.
Avery publishes nothing about testing or verifying an allergen, no adhesive residue claim, no shelf life for the label stock itself, no waterproof, oil or moisture resistance and no dishwasher instruction for this code. Where they are silent, so are we.
What these are for. Restaurants and commercial catering, hospitals and aged care kitchens and childcare and day care food service, and similar work.
It sits in our food safety and rotation label range, alongside our label supplies category, Avery label and the rest of Avery.
