FOOD PACKAGING MATERIAL TESTING
 
 

 

FOOD PACKAGING MATERIAL TESTING
 
  • Several regulations like FSSAI/IS, EU and USFDA are followed regarding testing of food contact materials as well as their migration in foo items. The European regulation (EC) 1935/2004 defines fundamental requirements of food packaging. According to this, packaging material shall neither transfer their ingredients into food in quantities that may impair human health, nor deteriorate aroma or taste. Besides these very general rules some materials are regulated more in detail. Plastics and polymers are regulated in the Regulation (EU) No 10/2011 of 14 January 2011, superseding EU Directive 2002/72/EC. The regulation contains restrictions, migration limit values, and specifications for testing – for safety of food when in contact with plastic materials. Similarly, FDA 21 CFR gives regulatory information for migration from food contact materials as per US requirements.
  •  
  • 1.Overall migration testing according to EN 1186 on food packaging made from plasticfood packaging material testing
  • 2.Specific migration testing according to EN 13130 on food packaging from plastic
  • 3.Overall Migration of Constituents of Plastics Materials and Articles Intended to come in contact with Foodstuffs as per IS 9845
  • 4.Residual monomer testing on food packaging materials
  • 5.Paper and Board packaging materials
  • 6.Other toxic substance like Bisphenol A and phthalatesfood packaging material testing
  • 7.Metals in metallic food packaging

    Food Safety and Standards (Packaging) Regulations, 2018 and 2011
     
  • The FSSAI (Food Safety Standards Authority Of India) under the Gazette Notification and in exercise of the powers conferred by clause (k) of sub-section (2) of section 92, read with section 23 of the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006 (34 of 2006) and in super-session of the Food Safety and Standards (Packaging and Labelling) Regulations, 2011, in so far as they relate to the packaging regulations, except as respects things done or omitted to be done before such supersession, the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India hereby makes the Food Safety and Standards (Packaging) Regulations, 2018 which shall come into force on the date of their publication in the Official Gazette and that Food Business Operator shall comply with all the provisions of these regulations by 1st July, 2019.
  •  
  • The Gazette notification clearly defines the requirements under the new regulation. The regulation also clearly defines the specific testing requirements for Primary Packaging Material that comes in direct contact with food like :
  •  
  • Paper and board materials
  • Glass Containers
  • Metal & metal alloys
  • Plastic Materials (PVC, PET, Polystyrene, PP, Nylon, PP, EVA, LDPE, HDPE, Cling Films etc)
  • The regulation also lists down the suggestive packaging materials for varied food products.

  • Ink Adhesion and Product Resistance as per IS 14636& Others
  •  
    CONTAINER AND PACKAGING MATERIAL TESTING
     
  • Package testing or packaging testing involves the measurement of a characteristic or property involved with packaging. This includes packaging materials, packaging components, primary packages, shipping containers, and unit loads, as well as the associated processes.Testing measures the effects and interactions of the levels of packaging, the package contents, external forces, and end-use. It can involve controlled laboratory experiments, subjective evaluations by people, or field testing. Documentation is important: formal test method, test report, photographs, video, etc.
