Results of the regular inspection activity carried out in 2018 and focused on the foodstuffs with KLASA and Regional Foodstuff award confirmed their high quality and safety. They represent the least problematic food categories compared to other ones where inspectors detect up to one order higher proportions of non-compliant samples.

In 2018, CAFIA inspectors assessed the total of 207 foodstuffs with national quality award KLASA, out of which all complied with all assessed parameters.

The inspectors further assessed 94 lots awarded by the Regional Foodstuff award. Only 3 samples failed to comply, namely 2 samples as regards quality parameters and 1 sample as regards labelling.

Laboratory analysis did not confirm violation of safety requirements in any of the samples taken.

These foodstuffs have to comply not only with requirements laid down by national and European food legislation but also with requirements laid down by conditions for the use of the quality award. Namely, it is higher content of meat in meat products, stricter regulation as regards the use of sweeteners, colorants and further additives, higher demands on the food taste and consistency, etc.

CAFIA inspectors have already been checking foodstuffs with quality awards for 16 years and the results constantly confirm the highest quality of the evaluated products.
