This certification aims to guarantee the safety of food contact materials, including packaging, machinery, utensils, and containers. It mandates that these materials must not transfer harmful substances into the food in quantities that could endanger human health, cause unacceptable changes in food composition, or impart undesirable taste or odor.
The regulation applies to all stages of food production, processing, and distribution. It encompasses various materials like plastics, rubber, paper, metals, ceramics, and more, used in direct or indirect contact with food.
Compliance with EC 1935/2004 involves rigorous testing, evaluation, and documentation of materials and articles intended for food contact. Manufacturers must ensure that their products meet these safety standards and, upon compliance, affix the appropriate labeling indicating conformity with EC 1935/2004 requirements.
