Question 1

What does flavorings contract filling cost at Avoria GmbH?

Accepted Answer

Costs depend on the flavoring category (food flavoring, flavour drop, baking flavoring, e-liquid, industrial), the concentration, the raw material price, the container format and the order quantity. For a reliable calculation we need the product specification or recipe, target volume and desired container format.

Question 2

What minimum order quantities apply to flavorings?

Accepted Answer

MOQs vary by flavoring category and raw material availability. For food flavorings on common raw material bases, the typical minimum quantity is 5-50 kg of finished product. For flavour drops in dropper format: from approx. 500-1,000 units depending on format.

Question 3

What does natural flavoring mean under Regulation (EC) 1334/2008?

Accepted Answer

Under Regulation (EC) 1334/2008, a flavoring may only be declared as a natural [X] flavoring if at least 95% of the characteristic flavoring component comes from the named source. A synthetically produced flavoring substance may never be declared as natural. Avoria GmbH documents the raw material category and origin of every batch in the batch record.

Question 4

Which safety data sheets are required for flavoring batches?

Accepted Answer

GHS-classified flavor concentrates - flammable liquids, substances with aspiration hazard - require an SDS per REACH Art. 31 for commercial buyers. Diluted food flavorings below the CLP thresholds do not require an SDS. Avoria GmbH prepares SDS for produced batches on request.

Question 5

What is the difference between food flavorings and flavour drops?

Accepted Answer

Food flavorings are raw material concentrates per Regulation (EC) 1334/2008 - for further processing, not for direct consumption. Flavour drops are ready-to-consume direct application products: fully packaged, dose-accurate. Flavorings as a raw material need an SDS; flavour drops as food need complete FIC labeling.

Question 6

What does the batch record cover for flavoring batches?

Accepted Answer

The batch record documents: GC-MS identity check of the raw material, raw material CoA, manufacturing log with batch number, filling date, fill quantity log with tolerance evidence. For food flavorings: declaration basis per Regulation (EC) 1334/2008. For GHS-classified concentrates: SDS reference and CLP classification note.

Question 7

Does Avoria GmbH perform GC-MS analyses for flavoring raw materials?

Accepted Answer

Yes. GC-MS identity checks are standard for every raw material receipt - independent of the supplier CoA. For finished goods analyses (purity evidence, component profile), we perform in-depth GC-MS analyses at our own laboratory on request.
