Analysis of paper and board for food contact
Food contact safety is an issue of very high concern for all kinds of materials and products. Our core activity in this area is analysis of materials intended for food contact (FCM).
Purpose
We offer testing in compliance with BfR XXXVI recommendations on paper and board for food contact.
The analytical results serve as the basis for demonstrating compliance with regulations, and support product development and problem solving.
Method
The combination of analytical parameters is selected based on the properties and intended use of the material or product, using the BfR recommendations.
Examples of testing parameters: formaldehyde, glyoxal, heavy metals, pentachlorophenol (PCP), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB), biocides (e.g. isothiazolin, bronopol), primary aromatic amines (PAA), migration of mineral oils (e.g. MOSH/MOAH), transfer of optical whitening agents and colour, transfer of antimicrobic constituents (“Hemhoff test”).
Deliveries
The results are compiled in an analytical report.
As an additional service, we also offer the possibility of applying for a Certificate of Conformity, based on our analysis results, relevant legislation, as well as your documentation of the material and included chemicals. Contact us for more information!
