At FREEE we produce all our products with the utmost care to ensure they are safe for you to enjoy. The FREEE range is especially designed to cater for allergen-aware diets. As such we carry out extensive risk assessment and\/or testing regarding the following allergens:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gluten<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

We have a dedicated, separate gluten free mill, bakery and breakfast cereal plant. FREEE gluten free products comply with the gluten limit of less than 20ppm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We continually review our allergen labelling and always ensure this is clear on our products to give you a transparent view of what\u2019s inside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nuts<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n

FREEE is based at Doves Farm Foods, which is a nut free site. This term is used to indicate that all nuts (both tree nuts and peanuts) are strictly prohibited in the entire area of land occupied by the business and under our control, including car park, canteen and factory offices. This means there are no nuts or nut-containing products on site. Whilst we do not test raw ingredients or finished products for traces of nuts, we do carry out a full risk assessment of our suppliers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The exception to this applies to certain FREEE products where we test raw materials or finished products specifically for peanuts. See Other Allergens below for more details. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
