Service Background

      With continuous improvement in food safety supervision requirements, China has gradually established a relatively systematic national food safety standard system for food contact materials and articles. Following standard consolidation, sorting and ongoing formulation and revision, China’s current standard system for food contact materials consists mainly of four categories: general standards, product standards, test method standards and production specification standards. Among them, general standards specify universal safety requirements and additive usage requirements; product standards set specific requirements for food contact materials and articles of different materials or types; test method standards support testing for migration items and other indicators; production specification standards define hygiene and safety control requirements during manufacturing.

      In accordance with relevant Chinese standards for food contact materials, provides enterprises with compliance consultation and testing services for food contact materials. We help identify applicable standard requirements, carry out testing and compliance assessment, and offer technical support for products to be launched and sold in the domestic market.
