Food manufacturer
Your recipe-products, label-ready
CalcMenu calculates allergens and nutrition values straight from your formulations. Generate INCO-compliant packaging labels across hundreds of references, with no re-keying.
A solution built for your sector
CalcMenu scales to your operation, from a few dozen to several thousand covers. The goal stays the same: one source of truth for recipes, allergens, and costs.
The recipe becomes a product: compliant labels and exact declarations, at scale.
Industry & brands
Food manufacturers, nutrition brands, buying groups — manage recipes as a product portfolio: nutritional claims, regulatory sheets, production costs.
What your teams deal with every day
Packaging labels at scale
Producing compliant labels for every reference is slow and error-prone. CalcMenu generates the full legal declaration from the recipe, ready to print.
Versioning hundreds of recipes
A reformulation touches label, cost and declaration. CalcMenu's history and versioning keep every variant traceable and up to date.
Accurate nutrition declarations
Calculating per-100 g values by hand doesn't survive an audit. CalcMenu computes them automatically from ingredients and production yields.
One product, one recipe, one traceability.
From development formula to customer label, every version is tracked. You launch a new product without fearing a labelling error.
