Latest detection of food contact materials in Germany
In September 2005, the new German food and dietary products law LFGB replaced the food and daily necessities law LMBG. LFGB, also known as the "Food, Tobacco Products, Cosmetics and Other Daily Necessities Management Law", is the most important basic legal document for food hygiene management in Germany. The regulations have made general and basic provisions on all aspects of German food. All food on the German market and all food-related daily necessities must comply with the basic regulations above. Daily necessities in contact with food that pass the test and comply with Article 30 and Article 31 of the German "Food and Daily Necessities Act" can obtain the LFGB test report issued by the authorized agency to prove that they are "products that do not contain chemical toxic substances", and can Sold in the German market. If your product is exported to Germany, you need to do LFGB testing, if it is in other EU countries, you need to do related food contact material testing in accordance with local standards or EU standards. Global Zhongyi can provide you with various types of food contact material testing tests. If you encounter any problems, you can call our engineers for consultation. Global Zhongyi can provide you with a variety of food contact material testing solutions. LFGB tests all materials, including products produced with the latest technology, such as: chrome plating of barbecue grills, temperature resistance of Teflon coatings on cooking pans Testing, testing of the silicone sealing ring in the kettle, etc. Generally involved areas include: ceramics, synthetic plastics, polyvinyl chloride, plasticizers, paper products, leather, textiles, cosmetics, tobacco, etc. Products involved include: toasters, sandwich ovens, electric kettles, etc. Contact with food Electrical products; food storage products; strengthened glass cutting boards, stainless steel pots and other kitchen utensils; bowls, knives, forks, spoons, cups and dishes; clothing, bedding, towels, wigs, false eyelashes, hats, diapers and other sanitary products, sleeping bags , Shoes, gloves, watch straps, handbags, wallets/wallets, briefcases, chair covering materials; textile or leather toys and toys containing textiles or leather clothing; yarns and fabrics used directly; various cosmetics and tobacco Products, etc. The specific test items and test methods of the LFGB regulations for the detection of food contact materials in Germany are as follows. The detection range of LFGB is as follows, General plastic products: full migration, sensory testing PVC plastic products: comprehensive migration test, vinyl chloride monomer test, peroxide value test, sensory test Melamine resin products: comprehensive migration test, formaldehyde dissolution test, sensory test PE plastic products: comprehensive migration test, peroxide value test, chromium content test, vanadium content test, zirconium content test, sensory test PS, ABS, SAN, Acrylic plastic products: comprehensive migration test, peroxide value test, total organic volatile matter (VOM), sensory test PA and PU plastic products: comprehensive migration test, peroxide value test, aromatic amine migration test, sensory test PET plastic products: comprehensive migration test, zinc content test, lead content test, comprehensive migration test, peroxide value test 3 comprehensive migration tests for silicone rubber products, (VOM) volatile organic matter content, peroxide value test, organotin compound test, sensory test 3 comprehensive migration tests for rubber products, formaldehyde dissolution test, zinc content test, lead content test, Aromatic amine migration test, nitrosamine content, sensory test Paper products (PCP) pentachlorophenol test, (pbcdhgCrVl) release of heavy metals (lead, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium), migration test of antibacterial components, formaldehyde content test, glyoxal release test, colored paper Product-additional azo dye test Products with non-stick coating (non-stick pan) 5 comprehensive migration tests, phenol dissolution test, formaldehyde dissolution test, aromatic amine dissolution test, (Vl) hexavalent chromium dissolution test, (lll) trivalent chromium dissolution test Quantity test, PFOA perfluorooctanoate test, sensory test Metal, alloy and electroplated products heavy metal leaching amount (lead, cadmium, chromium, nickel) test, sensory test PP plastic products comprehensive migration test, chromium content test, vanadium content test, zirconium content test, sensory test Baking paper product appearance, thermal stability, antibacterial component migration test, (PCBs) polychlorinated biphenyl test, formaldehyde dissolution test, sensory test Wood products (PCP) pentachlorophenol test, formaldehyde emission test, sensory test Lead and cadmium dissolution test on the part of ceramics, glass, enamel products and food contact, additional lead and cadmium dissolution test after cupMaterial Science Standards / regulations Test items limit test method explain detection limit All products LFGB Sense smell
