Intertek launches food contact materials & compliance program

Intertek is pleased to announce that, they will be offering a conference entitled, “Food Contact Materials & Compliance: Introduction to Current Legislation and the Future of Regulatory Compliance” on October 15-16, 2014, in Nice, France, in collaboration with European Plastics News.

The dynamic regulatory landscape presents a challenge for companies developing and manufacturing food contact materials and food packaging products around the world. Regulatory compliance varies for each company based on their involvement in the production process of a food contact substance, material or article.  Companies are seeking guidance on the impact of regulatory compliance for food contact materials.  This conference is designed to address these needs, through the delivery of insightful presentations and case studies.  Participants will also have the opportunity to discuss approaches to meet the ever-changing legislation requirements during the keynote panel discussions.

An event highlight is the participation of Dr. Zhu Lei, Associate Professor of the China National Center for Food Safety Risk Assessment, who will be presenting and explaining the latest developments in Chinese regulations. This talk will be supported by a further lecture delivered by Intertek’s own expert, Dr. Huqiu Zhang. 

This is an exceptional opportunity to explore varied perspectives from experts and authorities in the food, food contact materials and packaging industries. During this event, attendees will receive the latest information on: food contact regulations in Europe, USA and China; Nestlé’s packaging safety and compliance initiative; the use of the FACET model; the role of the GMP and compliance certification; food contact in industrial machinery; recycling regulations; biocides; printing inks; plus much more.

The conference is aimed at:

  • food contact experts
  • quality assurance people
  • key decision-makers

responsible for the design, delivery and compliance of food contact materials used in food packaging applications, food processing equipment or as kitchen utensils and home ware.

Join your peers at the conference to discuss these issues plus much more!
