Why this allergen label earns its place
In a kitchen managing multiple allergens, one colour won't do. These Hygiplas labels are bold purple—50mm square (2 inches), big enough that they register from across the kitchen or service line. Removable means you label the dish, not the container, so your prep equipment doesn't end up tattooed with ghost marks.
The label tells one story: this contains an allergen. From there, the diner or server asks what. It's not meant to list every allergen (that's for the menu or verbal handoff), but rather to flag "check before serving—allergy risk here." A pack of 500 covers a working kitchen for several weeks, even one labeling every dish with any of the fourteen major UK allergens.
Purple stands out. It's not a warning signal (that's yellow), it's an attention signal. Worn staff still spot it. A busy service still catches it. That matters when someone's safety depends on it.
