Food Contact Materials

According to Regulation (EC) No 1935/2004 consumer articles, which are intended to come into contact with food have to fulfill important obligations in order to prevent potential health hazards:
“under normal or foreseeable conditions of use, they do not transfer their constituents to food in quantities which could:

1. endanger human health; or
2. bring about an unacceptable change in the composition of the food; or
3. bring about a deterioration in the organoleptic characteristics thereof.”

(Citation from Article 3 (1) and (2))

This means, that based on information about the composition and/or analytical data a toxicologist should evaluate the product in an appropriate manner.
