What the materials cover

These seminar materials address how packaging and food, cosmetic or pharmaceutical contents can interact with each other. They explain migration, permeation and functional barriers and show how packaging solutions can be evaluated for these effects. The legal basis is the current framework for materials in contact with food, including Regulation (EC) No 1935/2004 and Regulation (EU) No 10/2011 on plastic materials. Practical guidance covers reducing mineral oil migration and complying with specific migration limits. Exercises on packaging design, raw material selection and legal requirements deepen the content. They serve quality assurance, production and development staff.
