Supporting Standard 6 through smarter food identification solutions

 

As health and aged care providers continue adapting to the strengthened Standard 6 requirements around food, nutrition and dining experience, operational efficiency and food safety remain under increasing focus within commercial kitchens across Australia.

One area receiving greater attention is food identification and labelling. Traditional adhesive labels can often leave residue on containers, require time-consuming scraping and create unnecessary frustration for kitchen teams already working under significant pressure.

Dissolvo Labels were developed to help solve this problem. They are Australian manufactured, fully dissolvable food identification labels designed specifically for health and aged care and hospitality environments. Both the label material and adhesive dissolve completely in water, helping eliminate sticky residue on reusable containers while improving workflow efficiency and supporting hygiene outcomes.

Today Dissolvo Labels are being used across aged care homes, hospitals and healthcare kitchens nationally to assist teams with day dot identification, IDDSI compliance, allergen management and general food preparation processes.

With Standard 6 placing increased emphasis on safe food practices, accountability and positive resident dining experiences, many organisations are reviewing how even small operational improvements can make a meaningful difference. By removing the need for excessive scraping and relabelling, dissolving labels can help save valuable staff time while reducing wear and tear on containers and improving kitchen presentation standards.

In addition to dissolving labels, organisations are also increasingly exploring print-your-own food labelling systems that provide greater flexibility, consistency and traceability within healthcare kitchen operations.

Dissolvo Labels is also excited to announce the next chapter in its journey, following the acquisition of Filterfab by Maxi-Press Australia, part of the JENSEN-GROUP. This transition creates exciting opportunities for future innovation, expanded identification solutions and continued investment into the health and aged care sectors.

As part of this growth, Dissolvo Labels remains committed to delivering practical Australian-made solutions that help healthcare providers improve efficiency, support compliance outcomes and allow staff to spend more time where it matters most: caring for residents and patients.
