Podcast: Exploring the impact of the new C-Label and F-Label

In this podcast, we're exploring the impact of the C-Label, for cell-cultivated foods, and the F-Label, for foods made with precision fermentation and other advanced biotech fermentation methods, on the food and beverage industry.

These new labels have been introduced by V-Label, the globally recognised certification for vegan and vegetarian products, in recognition of the rapidly advancing food-tech landscape and the complexities these advancements bring to the forefront when it comes to labelling foods and beverages.

FoodBev Media's deputy editor and editor of The Plant Base, Melissa Bradshaw, joins head of V-Label Switzerland, Lubo Yotov, to discuss the significance of the new labels and how they will serve to improve transparency and consumer trust across the food-tech sector.
