What the materials cover

These presentation materials address how packaging and its contents, whether food, cosmetics or pharmaceuticals, interact, and what this means for safely placing products on the market. Key topics include migration, permeation and functional barriers, as well as the evaluation of packaging solutions. The content outlines the legal requirements for materials in contact with food, including Regulation (EC) No 1935/2004 and Regulation (EU) No 10/2011, and presents practical approaches to optimisation, for example reducing mineral oil migration or meeting specific migration limits. Simulations, exercises on packaging design and raw material selection, and useful tools for product safety are also covered. The materials are aimed at quality assurance, production and development professionals.
