What is Nutri-Grade?

As part of Singapore’s war on diabetes, the Ministry of Health (MOH) has instituted mandatory nutrition labels and advertising prohibitions for Nutri-Grade beverages. This will come into effect from 30th December 2022.
What are Nutri-Grade Beverages?
Nutri-Grade Beverages include:
- Prepacked beverages that are ready-to-consume and are packed or made up in advance ready for sale in packages such as bottles, cans, cartons, packets or other similar containers,
- Prepacked beverages that are powders or concentrates that are meant to be reconstituted or diluted with fluids before consumption as a beverage (e.g. 3-in-1 instant coffee beverage, cordials, etc), and
- Beverages dispensed from automated beverage dispensers, which are machines that dispense non-prepacked beverages according to a pre-fixed formula, with no option for a prospective purchaser of the beverage to customize the amount of any ingredient in the beverage. This includes fountain drinks and beverages dispensed from automated coffee machines.
Alcoholic beverages, special purpose foods, beverages prepared by hand at the place/premise where they are sold, or those that can be customised by the purchaser are excluded from the definition of “Nutri-Grade beverages”.
Grading System for Nutri-Grade Beverages
Please note:
- All Healthier Choice Symbol (HCS) drinks are either A or B.
- The sugar content of the beverage is determined by its total sugar content, minus the amount of lactose and/or galactose that is declared on the Nutrition Information Panel (NIP).
