Report Highlights:

Key consumer drivers for clean labeling are the wish for better labeling of products (69% of consumers globally back stricter legislation) and demands for shorter ingredients lists (72% of consumers in the US find the idea either appealing or very appealing).

Product launch data suggest that clean label-qualifying claims are at best static or growing very slightly. US data suggest that manufacturers are making far fewer claims around either removal of additives or natural/organic qualities of products. Since 2008, product simplicity has been a more important theme for manufacturers.

The clean label cycle is an evolving flow between ingredient transparency, consumer education and awareness, and product formulation: throughout this process, manufacturers need to keep the focus on consumer trust.
