Food packaging products

What is food packaging safety?

Stringent international and national regulations safeguard the integrity of food contact materials such as food packaging, kitchenware and food appliances. To ensure food safety and that undesirable substances are not transferred to food items, manufacturers must comply with the legal requirements of multiple markets.

Why is food packaging safety important?

Food packaging safety allows packaging manufacturers, food retailers and packaged food manufacturers to minimise the risk of regulatory violation, potential legal liabilities and costly product recalls. At the same time, meeting country regulatory requirements and correct labelling improves the marketability of their products.
