Food packaging legislations

The new EU Framework Regulation 1935/2004 on materials and articles intended to come into contact with foodstuffs [22] has replaced Directive 89/109/EEC and 89/109/EEC. As a general requirement this framework directive requires that aU [Pg.449]

Commission Directive 2002/72/EC [23] lists in Annex 2 monomers and other starting substances intended to come into contact with food. [Pg.450]

3 mutagenicity tests gene mutation in bacteria, chromosomal aberration in mammalian cells (in vitro), gene mutation in mammalian cells (in vitro) [Pg.451]

Although Council of Europe resolutions do not have a regulatory basis, they reflect a consensus of the experts in the EU and other Council of Europe member states, and influence the likely approach within the EU to harmonizing requirements within the single market. [Pg.451]


As a consequence of EU Directive 78/142/EEC, which introduced a limitation of vinyl chloride monomer both as residual amount in final articles (QM lmg/kg) intended to come into contact with foodstuffs and in migration to food (SML not detectable LOD 0.01 mg/kg), the corresponding necessary analytical methods were developed between several European expert laboratories and laid down as agreed methods in EU Directives 80/766/EEC and 81/432/EEC, respectively. This piece of the EU harmonization process was too time- and work-consuming to continue in this way. The vinyl chloride Directives therefore remain a unique feature in EU food packaging legislation since this was found to be impractical for generalization. [Pg.314]

This idea is already embodied in the 1968 Food Amendments legislation in FDA. We expect the concept of close control of packaging ma-... [Pg.105]

We can expect drastic changes in the food packaging industry. Some will arise from new consumer needs, new or expanded food supplies and products, and new food preservation systems such as aseptic packaging. Others will result from societally based constraints such as safety in health and hazardous use (as in the child safety closure legislation) and consumer protection against fraud, misinformation, or wrongful use where the burden for awareness is no longer on the buyer but on the supplier. Other such constraints will arise from environmental concerns or material scarcities. [Pg.106]

ADAPTATION OF FOOD PACKAGING TO EUROPEAN UNION LEGISLATION... [Pg.91]

Developments in plastics materials and processing techniques for the manufacture of food packaging are examined, and Spanish and European Union legislation relating to packaging materials for use in contact with foods is reviewed. [Pg.91]

Legislation covers all chemicals, including dyes. Only the use of chemicals and colorants in foodstuffs, food-packaging materials, or pharmaceuticals is mentioned here. The exposure level of dyes is generally very low, but people are inadvertently exposed to dyes and other synthetic chemicals for these applications through dermal contact. Therefore, the use of colorants is especially regulated in many countries. General requirements on dyes for the incorporation into packa-... [Pg.636]

In the USA, there are also no specific decrees or directives for packaging made from recycled materials. However, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has published some basic information about the conditions of use of recycled plastics in food packaging applications (US FDA 1992). This information is based on current legislation in the USA and has the backing of American industry (US NFPA 1995). The safety and quality assurance principles involved here concern three fundamental elements ... [Pg.338]
