Legislation in European countries relating to materials in contact with food, and related materials such as packaging adhesives, is regularly evolving. In addition, new materials are continually being developed. The consequences are often quite subtle, and can require expert interpretation. To help bring everyone up to speed, Campden BRI is holding a seminar on 1st July to look at the major issues. Event Director Lynneric Potter explains:

“This seminar will focus on the challenges associated with the current legislation and potential future changes and how they will affect industry. Speakers with specialist expertise will advise on how you can ensure that you meet the requirements. Key areas to be covered include:

  • Challenges with the changes to the legislation
  • Adhesives, printing inks and coatings for food contact
  • Machinery in contact with food
  • Declarations of compliance
  • How the paper and board industry can ensure compliance

Amongst the organisations involved in the presentations are the Nickel Institute, Domino Printing Sciences, the Food Standards Agency and Flexible Packaging Europe.”
