Check a Formulation

An advanced version of the ingredient checker for food technologists. Enter each ingredient with its exact quantity to check against legal limits.

How to use

  1. Navigate to Check a Formulation in the sidebar
  2. Enter ingredients and their quantities in mg/kg (or your preferred unit)
  3. Click Check formulation
Alternatively, click Load from saved product to pull in a product you’ve already saved.

What it checks

For each ingredient with a quantity, Bridge checks:
  • Whether the quantity is within the permitted maximum for the jurisdiction
  • Progress bar showing how close the quantity is to the limit
  • IN LIMIT (green) or OVER LIMIT (red) badge

Example

IngredientQuantityLimit (UK)Status

Group additive limits

Some additives share a combined limit. For example, all benzoate preservatives (E210–E213) share a combined limit of 150 mg/kg in most food categories. Bridge warns when multiple additives from the same group are present.
