What the materials cover

These advanced-level materials cover the food-law requirements for printed and laminated films, with a focus on printing inks, adhesives and coatings in contact with food. The documents explain how EU and national rules regulate these components and place Regulation (EU) No 10/2011 on plastics and the functional barrier concept in context. Further topics include migration testing and migration modelling of multilayer laminates, as well as the assessment of unauthorised substances based on exposure versus migration. The presentations are aimed at professionals in quality assurance, development, packaging technology, purchasing and production who need to evaluate risks arising from regulated and unregulated parts of composite materials.
