What the materials cover

The presentation materials from this seminar explain how interactions between packaging and food, cosmetic or pharmaceutical products can be assessed. They cover migration, permeation and functional barriers, along with the legal framework for materials in food contact, including Regulation (EC) No 1935/2004 and Plastics Implementation Measure (EU) No 10/2011. Further sections address practical measures to reduce mineral oil migration and to meet specific migration limits, as well as the selection and characterisation of raw materials. Exercises deepen the topics discussed. The material is aimed at quality assurance, production and development staff, and anyone working with packaging interactions in the food and packaging industries.
