allergenproof
Allergenproof is a term used to describe products, processes, or facilities designed to reduce or eliminate exposure to common allergens. The concept is used by manufacturers, researchers, and allergy advocates to indicate a lower risk of triggering allergic reactions. There is no universal standard; "allergenproof" may refer to different levels of control ranging from preventing cross-contact during production to achieving very low residual levels of certain allergens.
Approaches include implementing dedicated production lines and equipment, physical separation of allergen-containing and allergen-free products, strict
Applications span multiple industries. In food manufacturing, allergenproof practices aim to prevent cross-contact with major allergens
Regulatory and labeling environments vary by jurisdiction. Labels asserting allergenproof or allergen-free claims are subject to
Limitations include that complete removal of all allergen traces is often impractical, and cross-contamination risks persist
