Increased Character Limit for Labeling Names
What’s New? NutriCalc now supports longer label names to better reflect real-world naming conventions. This helps when teams need to capture details like version, customer, serving basis, or claims in the label name. The change is intended to make label libraries easier to manage and identify at a glance.
Who Will Use This?
- Labeling and regulatory teams managing many label versions and variants
- Organizations using structured naming standards for tracking and approvals
- Users who frequently search, filter, review, or export labels
What Changed? The maximum length for label naming has been increased to support more descriptive naming conventions. Teams can include more context directly in the label name without truncation. This improves consistency when exporting, reviewing, and referencing labels across processes.
Benefit to Users Clearer naming improves search-ability and reduces confusion when reviewing, approving, or exporting multiple label versions. More descriptive names can also reduce errors caused by selecting the wrong label in downstream workflows. Overall, teams can manage label libraries more effectively with names that reflect real-world versioning needs.

A standardized simplified layout can also improve consistency across products and reduce review cycles for artwork changes. Overall, NutriCalc provides more ready-to-use output options for US labeling needs while broader format availability continues to expand.
Canada Labels: Dual Column for Different Amounts of Food
What’s New? NutriCalc now supports Canada’s dual column label format for different amounts of food. This format is used when products must show side-by-side nutrition values for two serving bases. It expands Canadian label coverage for common compliance scenarios.
Who Will Use This?
- Labeling teams generating Canadian Nutrition Facts panels requiring two serving amounts
- Regulatory teams ensuring Canadian dual column presentation requirements are met
- Teams managing products consumed in multiple typical quantities or package sizes
- Reviewers validating Canada outputs before printing and artwork handoff
What Changed? NutriCalc can now produce the Canada dual column format for different amounts of food as a selectable output option. This enables side-by-side panels based on the same underlying nutrition data, formatted for the required presentation.
Benefit to Users Teams can produce compliant, side-by-side Canadian outputs without building custom layouts or making manual adjustments after export. Generating the correct format in-system can reduce rework and speed up label reviews and artwork approvals. Overall, NutriCalc expands Canada label support to cover more real-world packaging and compliance scenarios.
Mexico Labels: Updated Rounding Rules
What’s New? Mexico Nutrition Facts panel outputs in NutriCalc now apply updated Mexico-specific rounding rules. This helps generated panels better align with expected local presentation standards. The change is intended to reduce manual rounding corrections during label finalization.
Who Will Use This?
- Labeling teams generating Mexico Nutrition Facts panels in NutriCalc
- Regulatory teams reviewing Mexico-specific rounding and presentation requirements
- Teams coordinating Mexico outputs across modules from draft through artwork
- Users who previously adjusted rounding manually and want more consistent outputs
What Changed? Mexico Nutrition Facts panel formats now apply Mexico-specific rounding rules during label generation to improve consistency and regulatory alignment. The updated rounding behavior is built into the output so the same rounding logic is applied each time a label is created. This helps reduce differences caused by manual rounding and supports more predictable review outcomes.
Benefit to Users Outputs are more consistent and require fewer manual adjustments before review and production, which can reduce label cycle time. Standardized rounding also helps prevent discrepancies between reviewers and downstream artwork processes. Overall, Mexico label generation becomes more dependable and aligned across labeling workflows.
