Dear CRC® Valued Customer:
In 1998, the USDA Food Safety Inspection Service discontinued the testing of new and
reformulated proprietary substances and nonfood compounds intended for use in USDA
inspected food-processing facilities. In December of 1999, the National Sanitation Foundation
(NSF), a non-profit, third party product certifier specializing in public health and safety, revived
the USDA authorization program with the launch of their own Registration and Listing Program
for Proprietary Substances and Non-Food Compounds. The NSF program is fee based and mirrors
the previous USDA program evaluation for all product categories. Once a product has
successfully gone through the NSF approval process, it receives a registration number. This
registration number is listed on the label of the NSF registered product, along with the
registration mark and category code.
CRC products authorized by the USDA before 1998 continue to meet USDA 1998 guidelines.
Products introduced or modified after January 1999 are submitted to the NSF authorization
process and carry the new NSF registration upon approval.
The following product is acceptable for use in inedible product processing areas, non-processing
areas, and/or exterior areas of food processing establishments (C1) provided that it is not used to
mask odors resulting from unsanitary conditions, and that any characteristic odor or fragrance
does not penetrate into an edible product area. When used on equipment that will be returned
to a food processing area, the product must be completely washed off and rinsed with potable
water before returning to the processing area.
