🇨🇦 Canada Front-of-Package Labelling – Enforcement Is Active

As of January 1, 2026, Health Canada’s mandatory “High in” front-of-package nutrition symbol is required on prepackaged foods that exceed thresholds for:

• Sodium
• Sugars
• Saturated Fat

We are now in February.

If your products are still on shelves without the required FOP symbol, you may be non-compliant with Canadian Food and Drug Regulations.

Food manufacturers, importers, and exporters to Canada — now is the time to review your labels and confirm compliance.

Regulatory enforcement is active.

Celebrating Innovation and the Next Generation of Scientists 🥈

We’re excited to share that Riley Saha Halder, a student at Westwood Community High School in Fort McMurray, Alberta, has won Silver at the 2025 Canada-Wide Science Fair! 🎉

Her project tackled one of healthcare’s toughest challenges — wound infections in an age of antibiotic resistance. Riley developed bacterial cellulose hydrogels infused with green-synthesized silver nanoparticles from Camellia sinensis (green tea) extract.

The results were impressive:
💡 Maintained structural integrity under wound-like conditions
💧 Better water retention for longer moisture delivery
🦠 Strong antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus
🌱 Sustainable, non-toxic process that’s better for the environment

At PBR Laboratories, we were proud to provide Riley with lab space, materials, and mentorship to help bring her vision to life. Supporting passionate young scientists like Riley is part of our mission to advance precision, innovation, and sustainability in science.

Congratulations, Riley — we’re so proud of you!
