Shenzhen Soybean Product Draft Rules Put Flexible Packaging Label Compliance and RMB 10,000 Fines in Focus
For flexible packaging suppliers and food brands, Shenzhen's draft rules put soybean product label content under a tighter lens. The proposal would require labels to carry the food name, production date, shelf life, producer name and contact information, production license number and other specified details. Packaging that misses those requirements could face a RMB 10,000 penalty.
On April 7, the Shenzhen Municipal Legislative Affairs Office posted the draft, formally the 'Several Provisions on the Supervision and Administration of Soybean Products in Shenzhen (Draft for Solicitation of Comments)', on its website. It sets packaging standards and related penalties, while calling for bulk soybean products to be suitably packed and labeled.
The draft applies to tofu, soybean milk, dried tofu, fried tofu, dried tofu sheets, yuba, oil-cut squares, jellied bean curd and other soybean products. Noting that a large share of these products are still sold in bulk, it states that bulk soybean products should be properly packaged and carry compliant labels, including the food name, production date, shelf life, producer name and contact information, production license number and similar information. Non-compliant packaging may be fined RMB 10,000.
The draft further requires soybean product manufacturers and processors to maintain incoming inspection records for food raw materials, food additives and food-related products for no less than two years. Catering providers that make fresh soybean products and operate a separate room for soaking, grinding and shaping must ensure the room size fits the product range and volume, with a minimum of 8 square meters. Violations may result in a RMB 10,000 fine.
