Regulatory & Compliance
- Approval and labelling
- Within the European Union, cellulose powder is approved for most foods with no quantity limitations. On food labels, cellulose has to be designated by its function-dependent class name (e.g. stabilizer, bulking agent or anti-sticking agent) and the chemical name (cellulose) or E-number (E 460ii).
